Front Panel Display Screens and What They Mean
The front panel display shows different message screens during different modes of
operation (Startup, Normal, Offline, and Fault). All single units display a basic set
of message screens; multiple unit systems display additional screens in Normal
Operation and Offline modes.
In addition there are Special message screens that may appear in any operational
mode. All of these message screens are described in more detail in the following
tables.
Startup Mode
During startup, the GT Inverter displays three message screens on its front panel
LCD. These screens appear in the following order (Table 5-1).
The five-minute, five second protection timer begins its countdown during startup
and the “Reconnecting in sss seconds” screen appears until the timer countdown is
complete.
Normal Operation Mode
The LCD on the GT Inverter is refreshed every two seconds, so all readings are
current to within two seconds. There is a default display available at all times, and
a series of additional screens that can be displayed by tapping the Xantrex logo
near the LCD to change the display.
Normal Operation
default display
After the protection timer has completed its countdown and during normal
operation, the GT Inverter displays the normal operation message screen shown in
Table 5-2.
