Inverter/Charger Installation

Xanbus and AC Sync Cable

A Xanbus and AC sync cable is required for multi-unit installation. The AC sync cable connects each inverter, and provides the necessary communication and control between multiple units.

Install these cables, routing it through the XW Conduit Box raceway, prior to making the AC and DC wiring connections. See Figure 2-31.

To install the AC Sync and Xanbus cables between inverters:

1Remove the two

factory-installed raceways for the communication cabling by removing the screw holding each raceway in place.

2Insert the RJ45 jack on the cable into

one of the two AC Sync ports.

3Route the cable as shown. Route any additional communication cables through the raceways. Replace the wiring raceways, ensuring not to pinch the cables. Secure the raceways to the XW Conduit Box with the screw that was removed earlier.

IMPORTANT:

In a 2-inverter system, install an AC Sync Cable from INV1 to INV2.

In a 3-inverter system, “daisy-chain” an AC Sync Cable from INV1 to INV2 and from INV2 to INV3.

Do NOT install terminators in an AC Sync Port.
