In the 5048 you jump L1 and L2 to get AC input charging. There is no L2 on the LV6548 if you are just using one inverter.
I'm trying to get my generator to charge the batteries. It is running the load, but not charging. This seems like a common problem, but I can't find a solution in the manual or online for the LV 6548.
Do I jump Line (L) input to L output??? That seems wrong
First thing I did was set it to 10 amp charging from 30a. I'm using a normal 12g extension cord vs a thick RV cord from the generators' 30a RV port.
Update: looks like the manual says hot/black is L1 and Neutral/white is L2. If so, why in the world with single phase 1 inverter would I jump + and (-). Sounds like it would blow a generator breaker to me.
Update 2 the second page pic show 4 wires and is wrong, below is the real world picture with 3 leads input not 4 leads.
Update 3 that online manual for the same model is different from my paper manual which doesn't show that diagram
Update 4 - It worked and then stopped and is now just powering the house load again (only 248w). I had it working- I had to switch it to solar first, not solar+utility (its night time - not sure if that matters) but it seems counter intuitive. My last thought about it was maybe solar+grid refers to them running at the same time vs switching from solar first then to utility (as per "back to grid settings?)
I'm not sure what they do but I tried to logically adjust these. I think back to grid is when the inverter will try to trigger the generator starter.
I forgot what they were but I changed:
Back to grid voltage is 49v
and
Back to discharge is 51v
