Communication Features and Methods
The Xantrex inverter provides two types of information to you:
• system status and/or fault information, and
• data logging information.
System status and fault information can be accessed using the Universal Front
Panel Control Unit (UFCU) or an optional monitoring system. Data logging
access requires the use of an optional monitoring system.
System Status and Fault Reporting
Basic system status and all fault conditions rising from within the Xantrex inverter
are reported to the UFCU. The unit stores the time and details of all faults in non-
volatile memory. The 4-line display shows a hexadecimal value and a brief text
description of the fault.
The fault value is also made available to the optional monitoring system and has
a more extensive description of the fault.
The UFCU keypad is located on the right center door to manipulate and view
system operation and status. The keypad is comprised of 20 touch-sensitive
keys that provide a means to navigate through the menus and alter user-
changeable settings.
See the Xantrex GT500 E & Xantrex GT630 E Grid-Tied Photovoltaic Inverter
Operation Manual (Part #: 975-0582-01-01) for details.
This information can also be accessed using an optional remote monitoring
system.
