General Information

Inverter Control Panel

Figure 2-4. Inverter Control Panel

See 

Figure  2-4

.  The  PWRcell  system  is  controlled

through the PWRcell inverter control panel. The inverter

control panel is used for adjusting system settings and for

interacting with devices.

REbus Status LED 

REbus  Status  LED  (C)  communicates  REbus  nanogrid

status through LED color. 

Green  –  all  devices  are  functioning  normally  and

PV Links are generating power on REbus. 

Yellow  –  no  PV  Links  are  generating  power  from

PV on REbus. 

Red – one or more REbus device has a fault that

requires attention before operation will continue. 

NOTE: 

A  red  LED  can  also  indicate  a  fault  with  the

REbus wiring itself. See display (A) for more information

about the specific fault detected.

Inverter LED

Inverter  LED  (D)  communicates  the  status  of  the  utility

grid and/or inverter through LED color and state. 

Green  –  the  inverter  is  enabled  and  functioning

properly  in  either  state  “grid  connected”  or  state

“islanded.”

Yellow – utility grid is not within normal conditions,

but user intervention typically is not required. The

inverter  will  restart  as  soon  as  the  utility  grid

returns to normal conditions.

Red – a serious fault with the utility grid or inverter

has  been  detected and  user  attention  is  required

before the unit will resume operation. See display

(A) for more information about the fault detected.

No light – the inverter is disabled or powered off.

Internet LED

Internet  LED  (G)  is  illuminated  when  the  inverter  is

connected  to  a  router  and  has  an  IP  address.  See

Ethernet Configuration

.

NOTE: 

A  blue  Internet  LED  does  not  mean  that  the

inverter has connected with the Generac server.

Shutdown Mode

NOTE: 

A loss of grid power will not de-energize REbus

in  a  PWRcell  system  configured  to  island  with  enabled

energy storage.
Shutdown  button (E) activates  a transition  to  shutdown

system  mode.  Disabled  PWRcell  equipment  will  limit

output voltages to a safe level for servicing. 
To enter shutdown, press and hold shutdown button (E). 
In shutdown mode:

PWRcell  inverter  will  stop  sourcing  power  to

REbus, and immediately disable all communicating

power  sources  on  REbus  by  sending  a  system-

wide system mode change signal. 

NOTE: 

Successful  signal  transmission  relies  upon

proper  configuration  of  PLM  channels  across  REbus

devices (PV Links and Batteries).

Shutdown LED (F) will illuminate.

Inverter screen (A) will display REbus DC bus volt

-

age  and  text  indicting  shutdown  mode  has  been

initiated.

NOTE: 

The  AC  section  of  the  inverter  will  still  be

energized  unless  the  building  AC  disconnect  or  main

service breaker is shut off.

DANGER

Electrocution. Initiate a system-wide shutdown and turn the 
PWRcell DC Disconnect Switch OFF on all connected 
batteries before performing service. Failure to do so will 
result in death, serious injury, or equipment and property 
damage.
