EasySolar 5000 Charge Query from Genset

Hi. Our System is current setup so that the genset can either charge the batteries and run the house or just run the house. I'm wondering if it can be set via the controller interface to only charge the batteries so that the house would always be drawing from the batteries and not the genset?

Hi @Sheppy

No, that's not possible. The Multiplus uses common circuitry for charging and inverting, so can't do both at the same time.

If you're worried about generator quality power getting to household appliances?.. The Multi is often called 'picky' for rejecting gensets, and there's some adjustments available, but usually satisfactory using default values.

Thanks. Do you think it might be possible to charge the battery pack directly from a genset using a different charger? if so, would you have any recommendations?
