What did the inverter stop doing? Have you done any diagnostics on it? If you have and know it is unrepairable, I would recommend a pure sine wave inverter/charger of the same wattage (probably 2000 watt) unit. If you stay with Xantrex, which is a good unit, the data cable can be used between a new remote controller and the inverter.

Yes be sure yours cannot be repaired, unless you just want to buy a new one then far be it from me to tell you what to do ha-ha. [moderator edit] Possibility yours can be fixed and save you a lot of money. If you are looking to upgrade the remote cable is not always the same for each model. If you can tell me what you have I can let you know what you can replace it with. If it is different, Xantrex makes a remote cable kit to correct this in most instances.
