Xanbus System
The Xanbus® system includes the RS3000 and other Xanbus-enabled
devices. The RS3000 is the device in a Xanbus system that typically
provides network power—800 mA at 15 volts DC. All of the Xanbus-
enabled devices, such as the RS3000, the System Control Panel (SCP),
and the Automatic Generator Start (AGS) are able to communicate their
settings and activity to each other. See Figure 1-1.
Xanbus Enabled
The Xanbus-enabled designation means that this product works on a
Xanbus network. Xanbus-enabled products are:
• Easy to use. The Xanbus network simplifies operation and automates
routine tasks.
• Reliable. Software control eliminates analog signalling errors.
• Accurate. Digital information is less susceptible to interference and
line loss.
• Upgradeable. Software upgrades mean your purchase will remain up
to date.
