I want to manually EQ my battery bank with my generator power.
I have the Classic 200 and the Magasign inverter. I waited till the sun went down and started the generator. I then went into the Classic 200 and started a manual EQ. The display showed EQ MPPT, but the volts was not rising.
Can I do an EQ off genny power?
Hi Rod, welcome to the Forum.
The Classic, like most MPPT Charge Controllers, has no way to use the AC generator power, to charge/EQ batteries.
If you have sufficient PV power on a sunny day, you may well be able to do a Charge, plus an EQ in the same day, using your Classic.

Your inverter may have that capability?

Indeed, the Magnum inverter IS probably an Inverter/Chager. You may nee to adjust the Magnasine'sAC charge current, depending on the genset's needs, etc.
Sorry got a phone call in the middle of composing that earlier reply.
FWIW, Vic
