What Does the White Switch in the Backup Controller Control?

The white switch in the Backup Controller controls the grid-side relay. When off, the relay is open, and the system is off-grid. When on, the relay is closed, and the system is on-grid.

 

The Anker SOLIX X1 system automatically controls this switch, and manual operation is not required generally. When commissioning, the system automatically flips this switch to ON, as long as grid-side input meets all requirements.

 

Do NOT manually operate this switch after the system is powered on. Otherwise, the system will consider the relay faulty (Ex: A45 and A44), resulting in commissioning failure.

If the switch was flipped manually, follow these steps to resume commissioning:

  1. Power off the entire Anker SOLIX X1 system.

    1. Press the black start button for 8 seconds until the power module display turns off.

    2. Turn off the circuit breakers on the left side of the Backup Controller.

    3. Turn off the power module BAT switch.

    4. Disconnect the system from the grid.

  2. Toggle the white switch to OFF.

  3. Power on the system.

    1. Turn on the power module BAT Switch.

    2. Turn on the circuit breakers on the left side of the Backup Controller.

    3. Connect the system to the grid.

  4. Retry commissioning.
