You need to start with the right "system" and the project is easy !
Samlex sells an inverter/charger/transfer switch that, in addition to shore power, handles input from a 120VAC generator and solar charge controller. With some additional wiring, it can even start your generator if the batteries are low.
Get rid of your old converter-charger. All you need is a DC distribution panel.
This is by far the simplest solution. A very detailed owner's manual/installation guide is available online.
Samlex was been making inverters for over 25 years, so they are not new. I do believe they are somewhat new to the RV industry.
