Charging question

It should as generator should power the converter with charging on it.
To make sure, check the voltage before generator start and then with generator running.

Chassis maybe not! Doubtful!
Coach(house) battery yes.

Most common setup:
With the "truck" engine running, ALL the batteries charge some.
With the gen or shore power, only the coach batteries charge.
A multi-meter is pretty much required equipment for an RV'er.

My monthly storage routine is to run the truck and gen each separately, each for 15 to 20 minutes to get them thoroughly hot. I run the A/C to provide a load to each one.....and to dehumidify things a bit.

Good use for a digital multimeter... It should read 12.6-7VDC across the battery terminals when it is just sitting there if fully charged. When you start up the generator then it should read 13.6 VDC (or more) across the battery terminal. This will tell you it is getting charge voltage...

Mine charges all battery if on Shore/engine/gen running. Some don't.

My Automatic transfer switch will provide power from either entry point (external or genet) to the same buss which provides power to the inverter /converter to the house systems and charge the house battery. When the house Battery is 1 volt above the chassis battery the intelic brain box will close the relay connecting the house battery bank to the two chassis batteries.

So Yes, mine will charge both battery sets. but not all coaches are wired the same, but your coach owners manual should tell you.

Tiffin generator/shore power does NOT directly charge the chassis battery. Tiffin provides a trickle charger in the engine electric bay to maintain the engine battery when on shore power. Not real sure about on the generator.

I pull the fuse to the trickle charger when storing without shore power so that the electrics of the charger won't draw the battery down.

"Magilla"......In 2005, at least with the their diesel pushers, Monaco did NOT charge the chassis battery(s) when the generator was running or when on shore power. They only charge when the engine is running.

You would need either the Trik-L-Start, Zantrex or Magnum system that attaches to both battery banks and charges the chassis battery(s) when plugged into shore power or the generator is running.

My 04 Dynasty does charge all batteries when plugged in to shore power or when operating the genset. Macktee

Let me restate what I said. In 2005, Monaco did not charge the chassis batteries from at least the Diplomat line on down, when the generator was running.
