Multiplus II: Limit total current (PV at AC-OUT + Inverter) to 16A

But this ESS option "Limit inverter power" confuses me a bit. Especially the word "inverter". I thought maybe that the DC-AC inverter current is limited to 6000W. Maybe it''s not true.... For example what happens if 2400W (AC-coupled PV power) is supplied to the MP at the AC-OUT? Does the DC-AC inverter only "inverts" max (6000W-2400W) = 3600W?
