Without any external battery monitoring, Conext XW Pro operational state transitions,
charge control, and AC coupling functions are completely based upon the measured
battery voltage.
The Conext Battery Monitor is a dedicated piece of hardware that determines the hours of
battery-based runtime and battery bank state of charge, and shares this information with
other devices on the same Xanbus network. With the Battery Monitor installed, enabling
State of Charge Control is recommended. State transitions will be based on the reported
State of Charge and will utilize the corresponding SOC threshold settings. Charge control
will still be based on battery voltage.
Typically installed with lithium-ion battery packs, external battery monitoring systems
take on a more extensive role in monitoring the battery and ensuring it does not operate
outside of its safe parameters. When Charge Cycle is set to External BMS, charge
control on the Conext XW Pro will be based on the SOC readings from the BMS and will
utilize the corresponding SOC threshold settings.
Multi-Unit Charger Settings
NOTICE
DAMAGE FROM HAVING DIFFERENT CHARGER SETTINGS
n Make sure that all Conext XW Pro units in the multi-unit setup have the same Charger
Settings. For example, if one unit has a Battery Type of Flooded, all Conext XW Pro
units must have the same Battery Type. To copy the settings to one unit from another,
see Configuration with the Conext Gateway Web Application on page 52.
n Make sure that all Xanbus devices in the same network, such as connected MPPT solar
charge controllers and the Battery Monitor, have the same Charger settings. Refer to
each device's owner's guide for information on how to change the charger settings.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in battery damage.
NOTE: Make sure that every Conext XW Pro unit in the multi-unit configuration is set to
Charger = Enabled under the Controls menu for each inverter.

When using Lithium Ion, the flat voltage profile introduces difficulty in precisely monitoring
state of charge. A BMS or Conext Battery Monitor is highly recommended in these
applications.
