disconnect battery to charge from generator?

Can't find this answer anywhere, sorry if it's basic!!!
I've got a travel trailer and want do dry camp. I've got a Yamaha ef2400ishc generator and a ctek 25000 battery charger. When I hook up the charger to my 12v battery, do I need to disconnect it from the TT? I'm just not sure if the charger could damage the inverter in any way.
Thanks in advance!
  • My converter is an old Magnetek & a tech recommended that I disconnect the battery from the coach prior to using a portable charger if there was any possibility of exceeding 14.2 volts.
  • No need to disconnect the battery unless the charging voltage will exceed 15.4 volts.
