The Xantrex XW Automatic Generator Start Menu

AC Out The “AC Out” connection tells the Xantrex XW AGS what load to monitor
for AC load triggers. Configuration of this parameter is only necessary for
systems with more than one Xantrex XW Inverter/Charger.
Generator This generator name is used by the Xantrex XW Inverter/Charger to
identify which generator is connected to either of the two AC inputs, AC1
or AC2. It is only necessary to change this setting in installations with
more than one Xantrex XW AGS in a system. In this case, the “generator”
name on each Xantrex XW AGS will have to be unique.
For example, if a generator is connected to AC2 on an Xantrex XW
Inverter/Charger, the generator name (e.g., Gen1, Gen2 etc.) selected
for AC2 under “Connections” on the Xantrex XW must match the
generator name assigned here.
See the Xantrex XW Inverter/Charger Operator’s Guide for additional
information.
Restore Defaults
The “Restore Defaults” returns the Xantrex XW AGS to the factory default
settings.
GenMode
Purpose The GenMode menu item controls the current operating mode of the
Xantrex XW AGS.
Considerations Use GenMode when it is necessary to switch between automatic
generator control and manual generator control.
When the Xantrex Xanbus system powers up all network-enabled
devices, the Xantrex XW AGS is in ManualOff mode. To enable automatic
generator starts, the Xantrex XW AGS must be put in “Automatic” mode.
