Using Cascading Parameters to Configure
All Devices at Once
Xanbus-enabled devices are configured one at a time. However,
because devices often have common settings, cascading
parameters can simplify and speed up system configuration.
When a parameter is "cascaded," a newly configured device
setting is applied to all devices of the same device type on a
common AC or DC connection.
For example, if cascading parameters are enabled and a Battery
Size (Ah) parameter is changed on the inverter/charger setup
menu, the same battery size setting is applied to other
inverter/chargers that share the same DC connection in the
system.
To enable or disable cascading parameters:
1. On the System Settings menu, with Cascading
highlighted, press Enter.
2. Use the up arrow or down arrow button to change the
current setting—Enabled or Disabled.
3. Press Enter to select the new setting.
When configuring the network-managed power system with
cascading parameters enabled, you should verify that the
configurations have been cascaded correctly to other devices.
Communication errors may cause parameters to revert to their
original values or generate a warning message on the SCP.
