I'm pretty new to using inverters, and I've had some help from several people with different levels of experience to reach this point. The consensus among the more experienced folks is that I've got a situation where I'm trying to adjust my generator settings after switching to LiFePo batteries. I want to know what I need to change for the AC input settings when using my 30 amp generator. We already reset the charge controller but are still facing issues; the generator trips its breaker unless we unplug our refrigerator from the circuit, which is quite inconvenient. Any guidance on which settings I should be looking at, whether on the PV inverter or generator inverter, would be hugely appreciated. Thanks!

It sounds like you need to tweak some settings related to how much current your generator can supply. Look for options like 'peak shaving' or similar configurations in the manual. By the way, I can't find anything under Midnite Classic 150 that suggests it's an inverter—can you share a link to the manual you're referencing?
Honestly, it might help if you included some diagrams or details about your setup. That way, people could give you better advice! The equipment you've got plays a big role in how everything works together.
