Chris, We had a problem similar to this in the Bahamas, only with a Radian instead of an FX series inverter. We used an Acme transformer, 3 ph 208 on one side, single phase 120/240 on the other end. It was about $1200 for the transformer. Acme is in Tennessee I believe and we worked with one of their people there to get it right. It was an easy install, easy fix......
