[RE-wrenches] XW config tool

[Nick Soleil]

Hi Jay:
    I recently upgraded the software on a large XW system with 3 inverters, an 
MX-60, controller, and a Gen Start Module.  Schneider mailed me the adapter 
cable, and everything worked great.  You have to upgrade the software to all XW 
components if you are going to upgrade the AGS software.  The upgrade took about 
40 minutes for my 6 components.
    Make sure that your laptop battery is charged, because you have to turn off 
the inverters during the upgrade.  It would be slick to bypass the utility or 
generator power to the site during the service.  If the laptop turns off during 
the upgrade, it can be really bad, because it can result in having to pull the 
inverters off the wall and sending them back for service!)
    I can't believe that the original AGS software did not support 2-wire 
start!  The wiring harness has 13 different wires for a multitude of gen start 
methods, but they forget the most fundamental one!  How does that happen?   Gen 
starting shouldn't be so complicated.
