I have 2xmultiplus inverters in parrelell 12v with 920AH AGM battery bank and a 73f supercapacitor. I have a 2200w continuous 2400w peak pure sinewave generator yet when we start the microwave it trips the gennie to overload mode even setting the microwave to 1/2 power same thing happens. I have a mk2 interface and am very familiar with the software and operating it but not knowing what to do to adjust perematers to stop this from happening. Needing some help please.
Sorry forgot to mention have the multi set to 8amp shore power and this happens even when battery is at 100%charge.
Where did you set the 8A current limit?
In a parallel system each multi will take the 8A -> 16A with two Multis. So you will have to set it to 4A to not overload the generator.
Via the Web interface, ah OK I set the charge rate using that format so as not to trip the generator upon startup if batteries are low. I'll drop it down to 4A and run a test
Via the Web interface it will only allow me to go as low as 6.2 even though I confirm it at 4A
When I set it to 4a via the software and send it to both units I then get 8a displayed on the Web interface via the venus so guessing I can change it via the Web interface and it will send the settings by half to each multi.
So I also turned on the assist but still have it tripping the generator its set to a multiplier of 2.0 should I raise this, it nearly made it through the start up of the microwave but not quite
My guess is something to do with the earth/neutral connector?
I reckon I saw in settings you can turn it on or off? I did say it was a guess?
I thought I saw in settings a priority to take 240v feed always from 12v supply, think it was somthing like battery priority rather than mains priority.
I would like to know more about the generator...
And the multiplus's....
And the batteries......
John knows about this stuff.......
Only the newer ( flyback ) inverter microwave ovens can be set to half power. Older models just switch on and off at full power in a 50% duty cycle. Has the Multiplus PowerAssist been setup?
Yes I'm about to adjust the multiplyer to 2.5 and see how it goes.
