I think that once you are buying two MX 60's and two X240's to charge from  a 
larger generator, it starts to look like just adding and FX inverter for  
battery charging might be a lot easier.  We are looking at doing this in  grid 
tie installations with grid tie inverters.  A third FX on a quad  board  or 
second inverter when one grid tie inverter is being used on a  half rack would 
deal with the generator backup and would also be a backup  inverter in the event 
that the grid tie inverter had problems during an outage.  We are planning to 
use a 2nd bypass toggle to allow AC out to the subpanel to be  selectable from 
the grid tie inverters or from the off-grid version.  Does  anyone see a 
problem with this approach?
