Xantrax freedom x

[GlacierGirl]

I am Barb's husband, Mark. I can't turn on the xantrax freedom x to get ac power. I press the button on the wall mounted moniter/display, but nothing happens?

I assume you are not plugged into shore power and are running on batteries? Is the silver button on the Xantrex wall panel in the In position or Out? Are there any green LEDs lit on the panel?

Thanks, steph and dud b. The button on the inverter box down below my bed was off. I guess I must have turned it off? I pressed it again, so the button was out, and my control screen on the wall came on. So, the two buttons operate opposite , one out, down below, one in up above. Go figure? But now all is working fine. Thanks so  much for your reply.

Glad you fixed it!

There is a chance the wall-mounted remote button is not working, they can fail which happened with mine. If your remote is the BT model, there is a procedure to supposedly restore communication and use of the remote button. Mine is not BT and the fix is a replacement remote. I decided to use the button on the inverter to operate and just leave it on. Regardless of the remote model, the buttons will have the same operating positions as the inverter.
