Communication Ports and BTS Port
There are five communication ports and a Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) port
located on the bottom of the Conext XW+ chassis (as shown above in Figure
3-3):
• Two Xanbus ports for making network connections between inverters, charge
controllers, and accessories. For more information, see Chapter 4, “Xanbus
Network Installation”.
• Two AC sync ports to connect multiple Conext XW+ Inverter/Chargers in
parallel. For installation instructions, see “Installing AC sync and Xanbus
cables” on page 4–5.

other device, using a Conext System Control Panel (SCP) or Conext
ComBox. For more information, see “AUX Port” on page 3–5.
