Hi Jim,
Xantrex has a XW configuration tool with a USB to Xanbus adapter and
XW config software that is used for firmware upgrades and adjusting
settings on connected devices. I don't know if it can be used for
data acquisition. I haven't used one yet so I can't tell you how it
works.

Fellow Wrenches,
I am looking to see if there is a way to connect the Xantrex XW
inverters to a PC for data acquisition and/or control. The cabling
is familiar enough, but I can find no reference in Xantrex
literature mentioning a PC link. With the old SW, they offered an
interface box. I though at first that the XW control panel may
accommodate the connection, but it is not mentioned. Have any of
you found a way to do this? OR have any of you come to the
conclusion that it is not possible?
Thanks,
Jim Grundy
