Safe Mode
Characteristics
Selecting Safe mode stops the generator (if it is running) and puts the System
Control Panel (and all Xanbus-enabled devices) into Safe mode. While in Safe
mode, the System Control Panel remains powered, “listening” to and reporting its
status to the network. However, the ouptut power of all Xanbus-enabled devices is
disabled and all inverting, charging, and generator starting activity stops. In Safe
mode, the MS2000 will not pass AC.
In Safe mode, the MS2000 continues to communicate, but the inverting and
charging functions are disabled.
When to use
Use Safe mode when you are adding or removing devices from the network.
Authorized service personnel must also put the System Control Panel in Safe
mode before performing software upgrades and diagnostics with the Xantrex
Diagnostic Tool.
If the System Control Panel is powered off while in Safe mode, it will be in Safe
mode when it is powered up again.
To return to Operate mode:
◆ On the System Settings menu, under Desired Mode, select “Operate.”
