similar trouble with the flexboss.  I am using a flexboss21 in an offgrid situation.  There are dry contacts on the control board.   But the only way to switch them is with the "generator exerciser" button in the app.  I would really wish for other ways to control the dry contacts on the flexboss.

@srafter2 I m giving up and buying a chargverter. I hate to say it but I’ll find a different manufacturer for it. Not trying to create waves with the EG4 guys they have been great, but I need to resolve the problem asap and they have had months to figure it out

@pawnee thanks for the heads up on this thread. I'm basically at the point of giving up as well. Though I refuse to throw $1200+ at two chargeverters to cover the deficiencies of the 12000XP.

I agree with what was said earlier:

 

"For people that are running completely off grid these inverters are not a good choice until this is fixed."

 

Though I would not say it as nicely.

@jk490 I completely understand not wanting to spend more money. If I find a good chargeverter. I’ll post it. No disrespect to EG4 but dang something needs to be done

So I still haven’t bought a chargeverter. Tonight the generator kicked on but won’t charge the batteries. It ran a couple days ago and worked perfectly. 

in all fairness the last post i made about Gen problems was my fault. I didn’t switch to volts in the discharge settings so it confused the 18K. I would have never guessed that something in Discharge would complacent charging but it did.

Gen stopped brood low frequency. Stated back up after I reset it and it’s charging the batteries. WTH
