Hi Chad,

Yes XWpro 6848 is a drop-in  replacement. Exact fit & all connections 
are the same as way back to 2006 when the "grey box" XW 6048 was sold. 
You need a connext insight home or facility device to do the initial 
configuration.

It is a one time need for the insight home device to set the mode for 
offgrid. There are numerous new settings
that will not work with the old SCP he has, but you do not need them for 
a replacement.

You should not need to change firmware either as long as the system was 
working. Most new firmware is for the closed loop support of 10 
different LFP battery systems and new grid features. There is one LFP 
battery Discover AES that all settings are hard written and read by 
connecting one xanbus network cable.
