Normal Operation Mode
The LCD on the GT Inverter is refreshed every two seconds, so all readings are
current to within two seconds. There is a default display available at all times, and
a series of additional screens that can be displayed by tapping the Xantrex logo
near the LCD to change the display.
Normal Operation
default display
After the protection timer has completed its countdown and during normal
operation, the GT Inverter displays the normal operation message screen shown in
Table 5-2.
If there is sufficient energy from the PV array, the default screen is displayed
continuously while the system is operating normally. In a multiple unit system
with communications cables properly connected, the power and cumulative
energy values displayed are for the entire system.
During low light conditions when the GT Inverter cannot produce any power, the
Normal Operation default screen flashes alternately (every two seconds) with the
Insufficient Solar Energy screen (see Table 5-10, “Special Message Screens” on
page 5–10).
More screens for all
systems
Besides the default normal operation display, more system information messages
can be viewed.
To view more Normal Operation information:
•
Tap the Xantrex logo near the LCD to advance the display to the next screen.
Normal operation screens shown in Table 5-3 are displayed in the order given,
as you tap successively on the unit. They are common to all GT Inverter
systems, no matter how many units are installed.
If you continue to tap the unit, then the LCD continues to cycle through all of the
available normal operation screens. Each screen is displayed for a maximum of
30 seconds. If you do not tap again during that time period, then the LCD
backlight turns off and the display reverts to the default system message screen.
