Matt, I have several systems with the same mix working ok except that the low battery cutoff can’t be set high enough to shut down the inverter before the BMS shuts off the battery. Have had to manually restart the batteries. Problem only occurs if generator doesn’t start as programmed or manually started. I install an iota 48v charger wired into the dc bus to jump start the system in worst case scenario where charge controllers are also shut down and generator can feed in bypass mode to provide a hot outlet for the IOTA. The IOTA charger also serves as a small backup generator input pathway without having to change any charger settings in the inverter.
