Your tail current is set to low. When charging with pv there will be moments where the tail current Will be met, so your solar charger will go to float.

When you now your battery is fully charged with your generator note the current still going to the battery and set the tail current a litle higher. Then your charger will go to float.

@Tama

Multiplus doesn't have a 'Tail' function to terminate Absorb. Where are you setting this?

Presuming Pb batteries, and depending on their condition, 9A into 320Ah at Abs V indicates they're pretty much full already.
