Multi-unit Config, Dev Name, Dev Number | Xantrex Technology XW

The XW Auto Gen Start Menu

Multi-unit Config

“Multi-unit Config” provides the means to identify multiple units within the same configuration.

Dev Name

The “Dev Name”, or Device Name, menu item gives each Xanbus- enabled device a unique identifiable name. This makes each device easier to identify when multiple Xanbus-enabled devices are connected together.

See the XW Inverter/Charger Operator’s Guide for additional information.

Dev Number

The “Dev Number”, or Device Number, menu item gives each Xanbus- enabled device a unique identifiable number in addition to the name. This provides the means to use the same name, but different numbers for similar devices (such as MPPT 01 and MPPT02).

See the XW Inverter/Charger Operator’s Guide for additional information.

Connections

	The “Connections” menu item identifies the AC and DC input and output
	sources that affect or control the system (XW Auto Generator Start). Start
	and stop triggers such as DC Voltage, charge stage, and AC load current,
	are related to these settings.
DC Conn	The “DC Conn” (DC connection) must be set to match that of the XW
	inverter/charter(s) in the system. This tells the XW Auto Generator Start
	which battery bank to use for the charger based triggers. Configuration of
	this parameter is only necessary for systems with more than one XW
	inverter/charger and more than one battery bank.
AC In	The “AC In” tells the XW Auto Generator Start what AC source or grid
	the XW inverter/charger is connected to. The XW Auto Generator Start
	uses this setting to stop the generator once the XW inverter/charger
	transfers from the generator to the grid. Configuration of this parameter is
	only necessary for larger systems with multiple XW inverter/charger and
	multiple grid connections.
AC Out	The “AC Out” tells the XW Auto Generator Start what load to monitor for
	AC load triggers. Configuration of this parameter is only necessary for
	systems with more than one XW inverter/charger.
