Connections Menu
The Connections menu contains additional settings to allow the XW Inverter/
Charger to function as part of a multi-unit networked system.
Setting the connections for a Xanbus-enabled device provides a way of
identifying non-network connections for Xanbus-enabled devices (see Figure 3-7)
and enhancing networked power system management. When connections are set,
devices of different types can detect that they share, for example, a common DC
input source, or a common grid or generator source.
In multi-unit networked systems, inverter/chargers can be stacked to produce
increased charge current. To achieve this functionality, the devices must be
configured to the same DC connection, such as House Battery Bank 1. The
inverter/chargers will collaborate on battery charging by listening to other units on
this shared DC connection.
For default settings, see “Connections Menu” on page B–6.
Important:
When configuring multiple networked XW Inverter/Chargers with the
System Control Panel, DC connections must be set to the same battery bank. If one of the
units is set with a different DC connection, a system configuration fault (F66) occurs.
Although the XW Power System does support multiple XW Inverter/Chargers connected
to multiple battery banks, such configurations cannot be set using the System Control
Panel. A special configuration application provided by Xantrex is required. To configure
such a system, contact your installer or Xantrex.

Item
Description
DCConn
DC Input and Output connection. This is the common DC connection
between inverter/chargers, charge controllers, and Automatic Generator
Start.
ACOut
AC Output connection. This connection specifies a common AC output
connection between inverter/chargers. The AC Out connection has to be
configured so that the XW Inverter/Chargers know if they are connected to
the same load or not. If connected to the same load, select the same name on
all units; for example, “ACLoad1.” If connected to separate load banks, use
different names for the AC Out connection on each unit; for example,
“ACLoad1” on one unit and “ACLoad2” on the other.
AC1
AC1 input connection. This connection specifies a common AC Line 1 input
for multiple inverter/chargers.
AC2
AC2 input connection. This connection specifies a common AC Line 2 input
for multiple inverter/chargers.
