Schneider Electric inverter paralleling question

Good evening all, a question regarding paralleling a Schneider Electric XW 6048 and a Schneider Electric SW 4048 Inverter-charger. I was reading some past posts and didn't see a definative Yes to the question. My system is grid tied and my P.V. is AC coupled to the Inverter AC output panel through a manual transfer switch. Thanks in advance!

    I would stop reading wherever you read about mixing models. The minute you hook the network up it will fault and shut down power.

    Now if you are talking about separate systems not on the same network, you might be able to couple XW ac out to charge the CSW ac coupled battery charger.     XW 6048 is not great at AC coupling and was replaced by 2 other models of XW. The current XWP is super fast at protecting the battery from being overcharged during ac coupling. This was a common problem when not implemented perfectly. 

    Why do you want to do this is probably the way to go forward.
