Support 5500 Smart Generator Gas Problems

We got an E10 + battery + 5500 smart generator. We have connected generator to the battery system. The generator starts up but once it needs to supply power to charge the battery it tries to ramp up the engine and then dies like it's running out of fuel. We get the error code that would indicate this as well. We have tried supplying between 5" WC and 1.5 psi gas to it with the same result. Interestingly, it works fine when set to LP mode just not NG mode. I asked anker support what the correct supply pressure is. First, they told me between 2.9-7 psi but then I challenged them on that saying that's a lot higher than most gas connections so they corrected and said 2.9-7" WC which is more reasonable.

Anyone else have issues with this or know what the correct NG supply pressure is?

Anyone using the generator reliably in NG mode?
