    Multiplus-II and Onan QG 5500 design questions/validation

    This actually makes the most sense, but I have checked it with a tester. Might be an intermittent thing. I thought about making one of those jumpers that basically has a wire jumping the neutral and ground. Think I should try it?

    Multiplus-II and Onan QG 5500 design questions/validation

    The ONLY factor that keeps coming up is that it usually happens when it is a cold morning and the generator is running rough for the first 30-40 seconds. My ATS is bypassed right now because, I thought it may have something to do with that. Clearly doesn’t. I’ve tried to set Virtual...

    Nope, it’ll read the voltage and hz in the screenshot I just showed you and clicked on and off every minute or so rejecting power. Then I get upset after about 15 minutes, sometimes an hour when I don’t notice. Proceed to turn on and off settings randomly (that we already talked about) and after...

    Multiplus-II and Onan QG 5500 design questions/validation

    I've confirmed voltage at the generator, at the multiplus, using the cerbo to read that there is input voltage being recognized. I can hear the inverter do a double clunk (like half a second worth) as it looks and then shuts off input. Generator is off right now because my batteries are fully...

    Ha! Totally agree. I have a whole list of things that the Victron software "should" do...

    Multiplus-II and Onan QG 5500 design questions/validation

    It's all set up with Auto Generator control. I would love to just trust this system (god knows I've put enough effort into it), But I find myself constantly monitoring it, because occasionally it will start the generator and not accept an input. Would be nice if it would at least pass-thru, so...

    It's a CerboGX with DIY panel, SmartShunt has BT, but is Ve.Bus'd to the Cerbo.

    Multiplus-II and Onan QG 5500 design questions/validation

    No worries. I saw your frownie face on my first post. Just acknowledging and appreciating a reply. So, I've tried all those things. I've gone as low as 15 amps just to make sure it didn't have something to do with the input setting. It will still randomly not accept input. I've swapped L1 and...

    Multiplus-II and Onan QG 5500 design questions/validation

    I'm savvy enough to know not to combine them. That's why I spoke up. This is today's configuration, BTW... Likely to change next time the MultiPlus acts up... The only thing abnormal on these screenshots is that I have the inverter output voltage lowered in hopes that it would have some affect...

    Yes, to all. Wiring out of the generator is G,N,L2,L1

    Multiplus-II and Onan QG 5500 design questions/validation

    I'm having trouble with the MultiPlus randomnly refusing AC inut from my Onan. It is the most infuriating thing I have experienced, as 98% of the time it works perfectly fine, but when that 2% hits, the darn thing will not accept input at all. I have done so many things to get this thing to work...

    Thanks for the input! BTW: love the install you did for Riley and Courtney.

    Multiplus-II and Onan QG 5500 design questions/validation

    Hi Everyone, sorry to drudge up an old post, but it is very specific to my current needs. I have a big boy Onan 10000 QD. Everything I've read about this modification would apply to my situation, but I am getting 240 volts when measured across L1 and L2. I know the generator is single phase...
