I'm recommissioning a 30+ year old diesel powered generator with a Mecc Alte alternator on my yacht. The generator has not been used in at least 4 years, probably more. I got it running and we converted it from 230v to 115v It runs, and generates AC at 50Hz and about 105V. I connected it to my Multiplus 120v 3000V 120A and it doesn't quite work. I have connected and used a Honda EU3200i in the same manner and used it in charge mode to charge my batteries, so I'm pretty sure the Multi is working correctly.
I read all I could find on the Victron site and disconnected the ground wire, disabled UPS Mode, enabled Dynamic Current Limiting and turned Weak AC since I'm sure this old generator is not putting out the best quality power.
Here's what the Multi says in VE config:
L1
UMains: 105v
IMains: 0.0A
Power: 0VA
...
Freq In: 49.1Hz
All the pertinent headings turned green
I also tried it using the hard switch set to Charger Only (without VE Config and the Color GX) and no LEDs lit up. In all cases I hear relays clicking occasionally.
What else should I be looking at?
