The XW Pro/Discover AES pairing makes up 2/3s of our installs. Right now I have a client who's Insight Home is glitching and drops out his smartphone connection. Without the SCP He'd be in the dark. I just purchased an SCP off of Ebay for 700.00 for a system we are building for a retiree who uses a flip-phone and doesn't use the internet. Him having to login in to Insight on a tablet every time he wants to see SOC would be laughable.On Tue, Apr 4, 2023 at 4:22 AM Chris Sparadeo via RE-wrenches <re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org> wrote:I don’t like the idea of a system being dependent o n the functionality of the insight home/facility or the battery life of a smart device / AC output of the inverter to be able to change settings. As limited as the SCP is, I think it serves a very important function in system operation. I’m all for removing unnecessary components, but don’t paint the windshield black. Schneider should offer a Xanbus tablet if this is the route they want to go.

The off grid or grid interactive (battery backup in case of grid down) world really needs to rely on a smart phone?Why couldn’t Schnieder go the extra step and put a display “with enough memory” to support legacy and XW Pro equipment on the Insight product family. I.E. Cerbo GX with display from Victron. Schneider has all these cheap Chinese all in one product competition with display screens built in and some other products like the most excellent Outb ack Radian that has yet to delete the Simple Man’s display. I understand the potential semiconductor shortage. I just hope Schneider can balance their approach.
