Xantrex Technology XW manual Temp1, Temp2, Load

Configuration

Temp1

Full name	Thermostat 1
Purpose	The “Temp1” trigger enables the generator to start in response to a signal
	from a thermostat. With “Temp1” set to [Enabled], the XW Auto
	Generator Start will start the generator to help power the item controlled
	by that thermostat.
	Values	Default
	Disabled, Enabled	Disabled
When to use	Enable this setting if a thermostat is available that controls a component
	that has a high-power requirement such as a furnace or an air conditioning
	system.
Considerations	If this setting is enabled, the generator will start in response to a signal
	from the thermostat. Everything related to setting the thermostat must be
	done on the thermostat. For example: setting the temperature at which the
	furnace or air conditioning system comes on must be done on the
	thermostat. There are no thermostat temperature settings on the XW Auto
	Generator Start or the XW System Control Panel.
	If this setting is disabled, the component connected to that thermostat will
	require that the generator be started manually in order for that component
	to have power. Otherwise, the component will need to be connected to
Temp2	another AC input source.
Full name	Thermostat 2
Purpose	“Temp2” is intended to be used when the XW Auto Generator Start is
	connected to a second thermostat. All information and procedures for
	“Temp1” also apply for “Temp2”.
	Values		Default
	Disabled, Enabled		Disabled
Load
Full name	Enable Inverter Load Start and Stop Triggers
Purpose	The “Load” trigger enables or disables the Start on Inverter Load Current
	and Stop on Inverter Load Current functionality of the XW Auto
	Generator Start. This function enables the generator to start and stop
	based on the current being drawn on the inverter by the loads. See “Start
	Load” and “Stop Load” on page 3–20.
