Time-keeping, warning, and power-saving features

Introduction

About the System Control Panel

Complete

The Xantrex System Control Panel provides configuration and

system control

monitoring capability for a Xanbus system. The System Control Panel:

 

• Monitors activity throughout your power system.

 

• Displays the settings and status of each Xanbus-enabled device.

 

• Enables you to adjust settings for each Xanbus-enabled device.

System

The System Control Panel uses Xanbus™, a network communications

component

protocol developed by Xantrex, to communicate its settings and activity

 

to other Xanbus-enabled devices.

 

Xanbus-enabled products are:

 

• Easy to use. The Xanbus network simplifies operation and automates

 

routine tasks.

 

• Reliable. Software control eliminates errors due to analog signaling.

 

• Accurate. Digital information is less susceptible to interference and

 

line loss.

 

• Upgradable. Software upgrades mean your purchase will remain up to

 

date.

 

 

 

Important: The System Control Panel is compatible with Xanbus-enabled

 

devices including RS, MS, TS and IS Series, and Freedom SW 3000 inverter/

 

chargers as well as the Xantrex Automatic Generator Start. The System Control

 

Panel is not compatible with Prosine, Freedom SW 2000, Freedom HW, and

 

Freedom HF, RV, or SW Series inverter/chargers from Xantrex.

System

The System Control Panel requires a Xanbus power supply to operate.

requirements

Network power is carried by the network cables, and can be supplied by a

 

Xanbus-enabled product (such as an inverter/charger) or an external

 

Xanbus power supply.

 

As a device that draws network power, the System Control Panel

 

consumes a maximum of 3 watts.

Operational Features

Operational Features

Other features of the System Control Panel include:

Time and date—has an internal clock that keeps time for the entire system.

Audible alarm—if enabled, alerts you to a low battery condition in the system and notifies you when a fault condition arises.

Low power consumption—automatically turns off the backlight and displays a screensaver after a period of inactivity to minimize battery drain.

Non-volatile memory—preserves all its settings if network power is interrupted or network communication is disrupted.

Physical Features

The System Control Panel has important features on the front and back of the unit. Features on the front of the System Control Panel are the display, indicator lights, and buttons for selecting device menus and changing settings (see Figure 1-1). The back of the unit features the inputs where the System Control Panel connects to the Xanbus system (see Figure 1-2).

2 Installation

Chapter 2 contains information and procedures for planning and performing a System Control Panel installation, including:

Materials and tools required

Choosing a location

Mounting the unit

Connecting the System Control Panel to other devices

Installation

Installing the System Control Panel

 

The System Control Panel is designed to be flush mounted through an

 

opening in a wall and secured with four #6 screws. Use the supplied

 

mounting template to precisely mark the opening and screw hole

 

locations.

Planning an

The System Control Panel requires no connections other than the network

installation

cables that plug into the back of the unit. Because you cannot access the

 

network inputs once the unit is mounted, the network cables need to be

 

routed through the wall before securing the System Control Panel.

Materials and tools required

Choosing a location

CAUTION

Allow at least 2 ¼ inches (57 mm) of space behind the wall to accommodate the depth of the unit and allow room for the network cables to bend.

Refer to the Xanbus System Installation Guide for more information about planning and installing a network that includes the System Control Panel.

You will need these materials and tools to complete the installation:

mounting template sticker (supplied)

four #6 screws (supplied)

Phillips head screwdriver

jigsaw or small keyhole saw

power drill with 1/8" bit (optional)

Xantrex network cables or equivalent

Choose a location that is easily accessible. The System Control Panel should be mounted where it is easily visible, with unobstructed access to the screen and push buttons.

The location should be indoors, dry, and free from corrosive or explosive fumes.

2–2

975-0083-01-01

Installing the System Control Panel

WARNING: Fire hazard

The System Control Panel is not ignition protected. Do not install in areas requiring ignition-protected equipment.

WARNING: Shock hazard

Before making an opening in a wall, bulkhead, or panel, ensure there is no wiring or other obstruction within the wall.

To mount the System Control Panel:

1.Peel the backing from the supplied mounting template sticker and place it in your chosen installation location. Use the template to mark locations for the mounting holes and the area to be cut out.

2.Pilot-drill the mounting holes (if necessary, depending on your mounting surface) and, using a jigsaw, cut out the hole in which the System Control Panel will be inserted.

3.Route the network cable(s) from other Xanbus-enabled devices inside the wall and through the opening.

CAUTION: Equipment damage

Connect the System Control Panel only to other Xanbus compatible devices.

:

Although the cabling and connectors used in this network system are the same as Ethernet connectors, this network is not an Ethernet system. Equipment damage may result from attempting to connect these two different systems.

4.Connect the network cable(s) (and terminator if necessary) to either input on the back of the System Control Panel. See Figure 2-1.

Connect one network cable and a network terminator to the System Control Panel if it is the last device at the end of a daisy chain-type network layout. Refer to the Xanbus System Installation Guide for more information.

5.Place the unit in the opening and secure it with four #6 screws.

6.Peel off the protective plastic coating covering the screen and indicator lights.
