8. Generator Use Operation Guide 8.1 Generator Use Diagram The generator provides two wiring methods for connection, and the customer can choose one of them according to the actual situation. 1)The Generator is connected to the grid port of the inverter. The connecting cable shall be covered with CT.
Page 49
2)The Generator is normally connected to the Generator port. The connecting cable between the Generator and the inverter does not need to be covered with CT. The connection line of the power grid port should be connected with CT. The system diagram is as follows.
Page 50
8.2 Generator Operation Notes 1) The two wires start signal DRYO_1A and DRYO_1B of the Generator is used to automatically control the start and stop of the Generator. 2)When the generator is used in inverter parallel situation, the two wires start signal is only needed to be connected to the master unit.

Multiple inverters can be installed together to deliver more power. When AC loads are present, all units effectively share the load. The system diagram is as follows. When using the parallel Inverter, the user can choose to share CT or not share CT (without sharing CT, each inverter should be connected to one CT, CT connection method is the same as the single Inverter connection method).
Page 56
grid power line and the load line of the two inverters should be roughly the same length. 4) Make sure the CT Limiter sensor is installed properly. If the load is connected outside the inverter, user need to choose common CT and make sure the CT ratio is right (the default 200A CT ratio is 1:2000, no need to change).
Page 57
settings of each inverter cannot be the same. CT Ratio: Set the CT ratio to 2000:1 by default. Charge Curr: Set the total battery charging current of multiple parallel inverters, and the current will be evenly distributed to each inverter. Parameters are set only by the master.

⑥Advanced Settings Users click enter the advanced settings interface. There are also some attributes of these mode: Global Grid Charge Enable, PV Charge Only, Bat Charge on Priority, Time- of-use Enable and 6 Time-of-use Slots. Advanced Settings/First Page: i Time-of-use Enable: There are 6 slots which can be programmed. If grid charge is enabled, the grid is used to power the load and charge the battery to target SOC at specific bat power attribute value.
