Setting the Time and Date
Conext XW+ advanced features such as peak load shaving, charger block, and
time-stamped events (faults, warnings, and logged historical data) require that
the system be set to the correct time. The Conext SCP has an internal clock that
controls the time for the Xanbus-enabled devices in the system. You can set the
time, time format, and date on the Clock menu. The Clock menu is accessible on
the Select Device menu.
Inverter Enables or disables the inverter.
Search Mode Turns Search Mode on and off. See “Using Search Mode” on page 3–9.
Grid Support Enables or disables grid-interactive Conext XW+ features, such as grid support
and grid sell mode. See “Grid Support Settings” on page 3–26. To allow grid
support to function after battery charging has completed, it is recommended to
set the Charge Cycle to 2-Stage. The MPPT controllers must still be set to 3-
stage. See “Charger Settings Menu” on page 3–11. When using load shave,
turning ON Sell and setting Sell Amps to 0.0 is a way to make the net power
flow to the grid zero. If sell is not enabled, there will be a net purchase of as
much as 2.0 - 3.0 kWh per day due to the current control loop not allowing any
outgoing current. If you wish to further reduce grid draw using this function,
enable sell mode even if you do not wish to export power and set Max Sell
Amps to a value of 0.
Charger Enables or disables the charger.
Force Chg Manually changes the charge stage to either bulk or float (when 3-Stage cycle
is selected) or bulk or no float (when 2-Stage cycle is selected).
This command has no effect if load shaving is enabled. For more information,
see “Load Shaving” on page 2–17.
Equalize Enables or disables battery equalization. This option is only available if the
battery type is set to Flooded or is set to Custom with Equalize Support
enabled.
Mode Selects the Conext XW+ operating mode: Operating or Standby. The red
Standby button on the Conext SCP has similar functionality (see “Conext
System Control Panel Features” on page 2–10).
Clear Faults/
Warnings
Clears any active faults or warnings. If the fault or warning condition is still
present, the fault or warning message may reappear.
View Device Info Displays the Device Info screen where you can view the warning, fault, and
event logs.
Basic Settings Select to display and/or adjust the basic Conext XW+ settings. See “Using the
Setup Menus” on page 3–4.
Note: See NOTICE in the beginning of this section.
