BTW, Ive left the OEM converter disconnected at the panel. Should I hook it up again? Maybe I'm missing something but I seem to be getting conflicting info as to whether having two converters could be a problem.
I texted the service manager earlier. I've had a pretty good relationship with him in the past. I asked the make and model of the solar controller and where I might find it. He didn't reply with make and model but did say it was either in the cabinet next to the fridge, i.e. the pantry, or in the closet next to the bed. It is in neither location and is not in the storage bin under the bed where the Xantrex lives. I texted him the result of the search and asked if could be behind the breaker/converter panel and was he positive a controller had actually been installed. Been several hours and no reply.
