We had a similar problem at Rich's house after we installed his small 7' wind turbine.  He had an inexpensive Xantrex inverter that had a preset (not adjustable) high voltage shut off point.  There is a delay with the C40 (and the C60) and no matter how we set it up, the inverter would shut down in high winds.  Very annoying - the only solution we could come up with was to replace the inverter.  Im not sure if this is exactly your problem, but odds are - if you cannot adjust the high voltage shutoff on the inverter, then I would assume you didn't pay much for the inverter and replacement might be the best solution.
