[RE-wrenches] xantrex XW 3 stack

[mick abraham]

I've done a couple of these 3 stacks. Operation of all functions seems quite
good once things are set up properly. Setup & configuration is possible with
only the System Control Panel...but it's easier with a computer provided that
you have the XW Configuration software/hardware bundle. 

This same Configuration tool (also called "the dongle" by the Xantrex
technicians) is also needed if you want to upgrade the firmware. The
software/hardware bundle is slightly counterintuitive...as with all computer
products, right? One must install drivers and otherwise make like a power user.

Wait times when calling Xantrex tech support are notoriously lengthy. Note to
Xantrex: please change the music on hold so that it plays more than one tune.
