This is the factory-installed initial position.
Used for classic series, OutBack series, and
parallel stacking. Also used for three-phase
OutBack stacking with models GVFX(E) and
GTFX(E) .
For these applications, place all jumpers in
the positions noted in the photograph and
the diagram.
Used for three-phase OutBack stacking with
FX, VFX, FX(E) or VFX(E) inverters.
For these applications, place only two jumpers
in the positions noted in the photograph
and the diagram.
Remove all remaining jumpers. No others are
used for this configuration.

Series Stack (Subphase Master)
Up to 8 inverters (ports 1 to 4, 7 to 10); 2 other devices (ports 5, 6); No balancing transformer required
Master inverter and half of the Slave inverters use common output AC bus (L1); ports 2 to 4 are L1 slaves
Subphase Master inverter and half of the Slave inverters use a separate common AC bus (2); ports 8 to 10
are L2 Slave inverters despite the screen selection (OB Slave L1)

regardless of the number of Slave inverters
Master and Subphase Master are always active; each type of Master regulates output based on its own load
Slave inverters remain in Power Save mode; Master activates L1 Slave inverters based on its load, while the
