It's a dual labeled 1997-2002 vintage Xantrex/Trace unit and the old BTS is yellow with an RJ-11 connector. Upgrading the client to a new bank of Surrettes and in order to be warranty compliant the system must have a BTS. So what have the older, wiser wrenches done for a replacement? Does anyone have one of these lying around that I could purchase? I'll contact Xantrex/Schneider on Monday to see if they are still available since they do still sell the C60 CC and perhaps the newer BTS are compatible.
