Generator runs, but no power to house

I just had my Aquahot serviced, up and running again, and I started the generator for the first time in several months. The generator worked well enough to supply juice to the electric element in the Aquahot, as the technician tested the system.

I drove away, and I estimate that the generator ran for about 2 hours. When I went to plug in a vacuum, I discovered that now there is no juice coming in from the generator. I only have battery power.

Here is a picture my Xantrax Rs 2000 display. No evidence of power from the generator. When I was plugged in earlier at the rv park, the power was coming in from the 50 amp service.

What could be wrong?

Reset the breakers on the generator after turning it off.

Check your inverter to see if it has popped a breaker as well.
