5 Oper ation Chapter 5 begins with a system st artup check that you carry out after installation and configuration to verify that the PROsine is operating correctly . The chapter also provides information that will guide you during routine, ongoing operations.
Operation 5–2 445-0089-01-01 P art 1: System Startup Check T o test the charging and inve rting functions: 1. Close the battery disconne ct and turn on the PROsine’ s ON/OFF/REM switch. 2. T o test the inverter , set the INVER TER switch to ENABLE and disconnect the AC input source breaker .
P art 2: Operating Considerations 445-0089-01-01 5–3 P art 2: Operating Considerations F an Operation The internal cooling fan operat es for a number of conditions: • One of the internal operating temperatures is greater than 55°C. The fan will continue to run until one minute after the temperature drops to 45°C.
Operation 5–4 445-0089-01-01 W ithout this hysteresis the PROsine might continually transfer between invert and charge mode as the shorepower voltage goes up and down a small amount. This concept is applied to the following: • Invert Low V oltage Shutdown Hysteresis: 2.
P art 3: Operation in Inverter Mode 445-0089-01-01 5–5 P art 3: Operation in Inverter Mode Once the PROsine is installed, you can operate it in Inverter mode. T o operate in Inverter mode: 1. Place PROsine’ s ON/OFF/REM switch in the ON position. 2.
Operation 5–6 445-0089-01-01 you have problems start ing certain loads, ensure that the battery connections are solid, the DC cabling is short and of suf fic ient size, the AC wiring is of suf ficient size, and the battery is of suf ficient capacity and is fully charged.
P art 4: Operation in Charger Mode 445-0089-01-01 5–7 P art 4: Operation in Charger Mode T o operate the PROsine in Charger mode: 1. T urn on the PROsine’ s ON/OFF/REM switch. 2. Connect AC shorepower . • The batteries are charged according to the three-step algorithm you hav e selected.
Operation 5–8 445-0089-01-01 Follow the battery manufacturer ’ s recomm endations for equalizing you r batteries. 10 provides some backg r ou nd on different batteries. As a guide, a heavily used flooded battery may need to b e eq ualized once a month an d a battery in light service every two to four months.
P art 4: Operation in Charger Mode 445-0089-01-01 5–9 5. During equalization, measure the S.G . When all cells have an S.G . of approxi mately 1.265, termin ate the char ge by setting the CHARGER switch to DISABLE. As a safety feature, the PROsine will exit Equalize mode after a specified period (depending on battery type).
Operation 5–10 445-0089-01-01 P art 5: Display Mode Screens When the DISPLA Y switch is ON, you can view the screens shown below . (The values shown here are examples only .) Dis play Mode scree ns are updated continuously to sh ow current PROsine operating data.
6 T r oubleshooting Chapter 6 describes how to troubleshoot the PROsine This section is divided the following parts: • General T roubleshooting Guidelines on page 6–2. • Shutdown / Restart W ithout Error Message on page 6–3. • AC Bad Causes on page 6–3.
T roubleshooting 6–2 445-0089-01-01 General T r oubleshooting Guidelines This section will help you narrow down the source of an y problem you encounter . Before contracting Xantrex, please work through the steps liste d below: 1. Check for a W arning, Error, or Panel Fa ult message.
General T roubleshooting Guide lines 445-0089-01-01 6–3 Shutdown / Restart W ithout Error Message While inverting, the PROsine could shut down for a few seconds and then restart inverting without reporting an error .
T roubleshooting 6–4 445-0089-01-01 W arning Messages W arning messages appear on the display panel LCD to alert you to an impending system change. W arnings do not affect operation.

T roubleshooting 6–8 445-0089-01-01 Chg Bad AC Qlty In Charger or Bypass mode the PROsine is being powered from an incompatible AC so urce, probably a very low qual ity generator .
Display P anel F aults 445-0089-01-01 6–9 Display P anel Faults A message is displayed for any fault that is detected in the display panel. If a Panel Fault message appears, you can cl ear it from the screen by pressing any button on the panel.
T roubleshooting 6–10 445-0089-01-01 Unexplained F aults Sometimes the PROsine may not show a fault at the panel, but may be acting in an unexplained way .
Inverter Applications 445-0089-01-01 6–11 Inverter Applications The PROsine performs dif feren tly de pend in g on the AC loads connected to it. If you are having p roblems with any of your loads, read this section. Resistive Loads These are the loads that the inverter finds the simplest and most efficient to drive.
T roubleshooting 6–12 445-0089-01-01 freewheel when power is removed (e.g. a grinder). This long transfer may cause computers or other sensitive equipment to operate incorrectly . If power glitches must be minimized then Xantrex recommen ds that motor loads not be operated when the sensitive equi pment is being used.

Connect 2-conductor -plus-ground cable to the Line 1 PROsine’ s AC Output line and neutral conducto rs, and connect the cable’ s ground wire to one o f the output ground screws on the PROsine.
Installing a Series Syst em 445-0089-01-01 7–7 The system can be run from a single battery bank or from two separate banks. A large single bank provides better sur ge ca pability for 120V load s and ensures that unbalanced 120V load s do n’t run down the battery on one inverter before the other .
Series Operation 7–8 445-0089-01-01 • Single Bank : If yo ur system has a single bank , install bo th se nsors on the battery (or batteries) which will be the hottest.
Configuring a Series Syst em 445-0089-01-01 7–9 Configuring a Series System Configure each PROsine through its display panel. Refer to “Part 2: Configuration Menus and Screens” on page 4–4 for an overview of configuration options. Refer to “Part 3: Configuration Options” on page 4–6 for specific configuration items.
Series Operation 7–10 445-0089-01-01 Series System Startup T est T o test the system’s inverting and charging functions 1. Apply DC to both PROsines by closin g the battery disconnect(s). Remove AC by opening the AC input source breaker . On both PROsines , set the ON/OFF/ REM switch to On.
Series System Operation 445-0089-01-01 7–11 Series System Operation Invert Mode The two PROsines will operate strictly as a pair in Invert mode. Before each cycle of AC output, the two units confer over th e sync cable to verify that the other unit has no errors and is ready to put out th e next cycle.
