200 volts is a bit low, unless the generator meter is not accurate I suggest you adjust the throttle to get a 60Hz line frequency and the cheapest way to do it is a kill-o-watt meter (Under $30).

You got a AVR controlled generator and some Chinese unit (Generator section) produce crappy sine wave who are a PITA to adjust correctly, they can toast electronic equipment's so take care.
