What's wrong with the chargers being on? Just set the charge settings (absorb 56 v, and absorb time 5 minutes) fairly low. It will lightly charge for a few minutes, and then go to float. Just because your customer imagines this to be a problem, doesn't mean it actually is. Its not going to hurt the batteries or use excessive fuel to go through a little refresh charge like this, and if the batteries actually are low, these charge settings will be helpful.

When the generator is auto started, the inverter's charger will be enabled. After the generator is stopped, the inverter's charger will be returned to the mode before the generator started. The logic is if you are running the generator the Inverter's charger should be enabled. You could lower the charger AC limit to 0 Amps.

08:00 Inverter charger OFF
10:00 Must run start -> charger ON
11:00 Must run stop -> charger OFF

HI All,

I’ve got a problem that outback tech hasn’t been able to figure out.

off grid system
mate 3
quad stacked VFX 3648

The generator is set to specific start/stop daily timer. This works fine.

The client has plenty of solar for the day, and when he runs his generator he doesn’t want the chargers to operate.
OK so just hit charge off, and yes the chargers will turn off.

But next day, genny starts up, and the chargers come back on as well.

Outback says that shouldn’t be happening, but it is.

Anybody have this issue or know of a fix?

Thanks

jay
