I did not use the AGS.
So, can I assume that the refer is on shore power?
I checked several hours later, and the inverter showed 12.2v.

If the batteries are in store mode the inverter should not be drawing any battery power and the inverter control panel should be reading the battery voltage. That inverter control panel will be a drain on the batteries.
I assume that with the batteries in store mode and you hooked in through a 15amp adapter you are using shore power. As to the microwave, whenever mine is disconnected from power the control panel goes blank so unless I hit the clock button there is no indication of power.
Since my rig is outside the house connected to 50 Amp shore power I'll go out in a little bit and try a couple of scenarios and let you know how they work out. What I expect to find is when connected and batteries in store mode the fridge TVs and MW function as usual regardless of the inverter being on or off.
As a note, you may e facing a condition when power loads are being aged based on the available amperage of the shore power connection.
