transformer. This feature will attempt to balance the load between L1 and L2.
Generator support is most effective for generators under 5 kW. See Table 3-12,
“Advanced Features Menu” on page 3–49.
Note: Ensure that the battery bank has sufficient energy to support your loads
for the anticipated time period, otherwise draining the battery to LBCO may put
the system in Fault mode.
Note: The passthrough running and startup (peak) currents of generators
attached to AC2 are limited to the maximum current limits of the Conext XW+.
Note: If generator support is used with generators larger than 5 kW, it is
possible for current to recirculate. In this case, the efficiency losses would
outweigh the benefit of generator support.
