I am not getting any inverter error messages while the inverter is on and I still get power to the breaker in pass through mode (inverter off).
No, the inverter has it's own overload/breaker. The 120 VAC from the breaker (panel) goes to the ATM in the inverter. When 120 VAC is present from the breaker (panel) it passes it through to the downstream loads. If no 120 VAC from the breaker (panel), the inverter "switches" to 120 VAC generation from the 12 VDC to power the downstream loads.
