Both Charge Controller and Converter Charging Batteries?

Hi,

My solar system plays well with the converter, and alternator, but not so well with the Magnum Inverter charger. The way to find out is to try it.

Have you researched, are there any networked charge controllers that will negotiate with a Magnum and charge accordingly?

It seems many higher end controllers offer rs485 ports as does the Magnum. Something must be possible.

Magnum serial protocol document is there for download.
