[RE-wrenches] 4 XW+ 6848 with AC Coupling problem

[Maverick Brown]

It’s a good idea to make sure only one set as Master the others are slave. Start by adding one slave at a time. Turn off Search, Charger and Grid Support until you know they are playing happy. 

I prefer using the XW Config and walking through the wizard, but you can use Multi Unit setup, which will put everything in standby. I have several 8-12 unit XW sites 3-4 Inverters, SCP, AGS and Combox/ Gateway, etc. 

It can be done.

> Wrenches, I'm getting ready to go outside the building and shoot myself.  AC Coupling is turned off.  The XW+ inverters are selling to each other.  XW+'s are disconnected from the load and from generator input.  System is off grid.  When I switch the ATS the inverters are supposed to pick up the load.  ~ 12 kW, maybe 18 worst case.  They are selling to each other and when I make the switch the lights flicker and the inverters go off, then they try to go on, and go off, etc.
