![]() VE Configure also allows to set the values for which the inverter disconnects and then reconnects for higher or lower voltages, some values are automatically suggested by the program, however it's advisable to correct these values based on the generator model you have. It's also necessary to activate the "Accept wide input frequency range (45-65Hz)" function so that it's possible to accept generator instabilities in terms of frequency, if the generator is extremely stable, this option can be avoided. Once the program has been started and the inverter has been found as a target, open the "Grid" page and deactivate the check on "UPS function" as shown in the figure, if this function is active you will not be able to connect the generator. Let's see what are the steps to follow on the VE Configure software provided by Victron to correctly configure the Inverter: It's important to note that, once the inverter is installed, the synchronization phase can last a few minutes and therefore the coupling will not be instantaneous. ![]() It depends on the inverter you own, Victron recommends these inverters for different generation powers: It's always better however for this kind of applications to choose a generator with AVR control (auto voltage regulation) that, unlike generators with an internal inverter which operate independently of the load as they are electronically controlled and not mechanically, generators with AVR stop working if the load becomes excessive. The first choice to face is the purchase of a suitable generator, there are many generators on the market but not everyone are particularly suitable to "talk" with a Victron inverter. The inverter-generator coupling therefore requires some precautions: The power coming from a generator is usually more variable than the power coming from the network, the Inverters are very sensitive to this type of behavior and if the input power doesn't meet certain requirements, the Inverter doesn't accept the input power and it doesn't synchronize.
