Load Shaving The Conext XW+ supports the utility grid when there is AC input on AC1 and the
current required to power the loads rises above the Load Shave Amps setting between
the Load Shave Start and Load Shave Stop times set on the Grid Support menu.
However, AC charging including force charging is disabled during these times. AC
charging is enabled when battery voltage falls below [LBCO + 1V]. For an illustration,
see Figure 3-7 on page 3–28.
When load shaving, the Conext XW+ uses stored battery energy to reduce the peak
load on the AC1 input by providing the difference between the actual load current and
the Load Shave Amps setting. The Conext XW+ enters this state only when Grid
Support is enabled, the load shave time window is valid and the load draw exceeds
the Load Shave Amps setting. The battery voltage must also be between
ReCharge Volts +0.5 V and the Grid Supp Volts setting. See “Grid Support
Settings” on page 3–26.
Search Search mode is enabled and the Conext XW+ is standing by, waiting to begin
inverting. See “Using Search Mode” on page 3–9.
SellToGrid The Conext XW+ is grid-tied and is exporting energy to the utility grid on AC1. Both
Grid Support and Sell must be enabled in order to sell power back to the utility. See
Table 3-1, “Conext XW+ Setup Menu” on page 3–2 and “Grid Support Settings” on
page 3–26. All configurations must comply with local and national electrical codes.
Standby The unit has been placed in standby mode using the Mode setting on the Conext SCP
Setup menu, the Standby button on the Conext SCP, or the Standby key press
(
STARTUP/SHUTDOWN and Equalization) on the inverter information panel.
Passthru The AC connected to the AC1 or AC2 input is passing directly through the Conext
XW+ to the loads attached to AC Out. The batteries are not being charged in this state.
Equalize Equalization has been turned on and the Conext XW+ is equalizing the batteries after
completing a full charge cycle.
