1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Xantrex C-Series Meter Display. The
C-Series Meter Display is an optional accessory for the C-Series
Multifunction DC controllers C35, C40 and C60. It provides a digital
display of the voltage, current, and amp-hour status for the C-Series
Multifunction DC Controller.
The C-Series Meter Display comes in two versions:
• the faceplate (DVM/C40), which replaces the front cover.
• the remote (C40R/50 and C40R/100), which can be installed
remotely up to 1,000 feet away from the controller.
Please note that labeling shown on the product photographs in this
guide may not exactly match the unit you purchased.

Warnings and Cautions
Failure to follow these safety guidelines may cause personal injury
and/or damage to the C-Series Meter Display. It may also void your

Additional Safety Guidelines
Be sure to read, and adhere to, the Safety Guidelines listed in the

WARNING: Explosion Hazard

3 Features
The C-Series Meters have three features:
• a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) to show current, voltage,
amperage, resettable amp hours and total amp hours,
• an Amp-hour Reset Button, which is also used to illuminate or dim
the display, and
• a Light Emitting Diode (LED) to indicate system status.
The remote is supplied with either a 50-foot (15 m) or a 100-foot
(30.5 m) communications cable. Cable runs up to 1,000 feet (305 m) can
be used, but cables exceeding 100 feet are not provided by Xantrex.
