[RE-wrenches] outback radian question

This sounds like the exact same issue with the FX and VFX inverters. Meter the power quality while under charge - nasty. We found a lot of computerized control systems on furnaces and boilers would either reject the power and not power up, or would behave erratically, some would be ok if you powered it up before generator on, some not. They were fine on inverter, fine on generator, but under charge bad. 

Ended up swapping out a lot of inverters since customers were not so keen on certain loads not operating properly when under generator charge.

HI All,

My question is. are there any known issues with the Radian interfacing with a generator?

I have a customer with flickering lights.
The lights are LED ( some dimmer/some on/off)

The generator supplier says that there are lots of problems with the Radian.
I've not heard this and don't believe it.

symptoms:
radian alone:  no flicker
generator alone: no flicker
generator/charging flicker.
different generator: no flicker.

So there is no doubt its the generator.

I'm trying to get more information to go back to the customer.

Thanks

jay
