                        STUDER Innotec Xtender  1 Introduction  Congratulations! You are about to install and use a device from the Xtender range. You have chosen  a high-tech device that will play a central role in energy saving for your electrical installation. The  Xtender has been designed to work as an inverter / charger with advanced functions, which can be  used in a completely modular way and guarantee the faultless functioning of your energy system.   When the Xtender is connected to a generator or network, th

                        STUDER Innotec Xtender   XCLUSION OF LIABILITY 2.3.2 E  The placement, commissioning, use, maintenance and servicing of the Xtender cannot be the  subject of monitoring by Studer Innotec. For this reasons we assume no responsibility and liability for  damage, costs or losses resulting from an installation that does not conform to the instructions,  defective functioning or deficient maintenance. The use of a Studer Innotec inverter is the  responsibility of the customer in all cases.  This equip

When working with the batteries, a second person must be present in order to lend assistance in the  event of problems.  Sufficient fresh water and soap must be kept to hand to allow adequate and immediate washing of  the skin or eyes affected by accidental contact with the acid.  In the event of accidental contact of the eyes with acid, they must be washed carefully with cold  water for 15 minutes. Then immediately consult a doctor.

                        STUDER Innotec Xtender  3.5 Fastening  The Xtender is a heavy unit and must be mounted to a wall designed to bear such a load.    A simple wooden panel is insufficient.      The Xtender must be installed vertically with sufficient space around it to guarantee adequate  ventilation of the device (see figs. 2a and 2b).  If the Xtender is installed in a closed cabinet this must have sufficient ventilation to guarantee an  ambient temperature that conforms to the operation of the Xtender.

In these cases, two separate AC inputs are often required, one  connected to the grid and the other connected to an on-board generator.

In a system comprising a single Xtender, the connection of the RCC-02 or RCC-03 may be  conducted without stopping the Xtender (warm).

When the configuration is set to 0 the  inverter will still operate even in the absence of any consumer.  When the load search sensitivity {1187} is set to 0 in a paralleled multi-units system, the  master/slave behaviour is inhibited and all the inverter will be always functional whatever the    load is.   In standby mode the system will thus consume minimal power from the battery (see table of  technical data p. 36)

When this function is activated {1126}, it allows the current from the battery to be  supplied to the user in order to guarantee that the current at the input of the device does not exceed  the limit set {1107}.   If the input current limit is exceeded, the transfer relay will be opened immediately, thereby  protecting the upstream protection device. If the exceeding of the input current value limit is due to a  short-circuit downstream, the transfer
