I have two outback inverters, 1000 watts solar, whisper 500 2500 watts wind power, 7 kw generator. We are off the grid.
WHen generator goes off recently it wont switch to inverter but shuts generator off automatically.
THen it switches back and forth from inverting to charging instantaneously.
Any help appreciated,

Welcome to the forum.

We need to clarify what is happening.
When the generator is running it power AC IN on the inverters, takes over the loads connected to AC OUT, and causes the inverter to switch to charger mode.
When the generator is not running there is no power at AC IN, all loads run off the inverter from the batteries.

You say "shuts the generator off automatically"; does this system have automatic generator control installed? Is that shutting down the generator but then the inverter is not activating? Does this cause a restart from the AGS?

Some additional details of the system would be helpful: which inverters, how they are configured (independent, stacked parallel for double current capacity, or stacked serial for 240 VAC output), and what Voltage set points are for charging (Absorb, Float) and AGS (if equipped).

Outback systems can be highly complex and it isn't right to speculate without knowing the details.
