Hope I'm not hopping on to this discussion too late, but I wired an outback GVFX3648 and an epanel recently. If your subpanel is powered from the inverter's AC Hot Out, it should be isolated from your other ac outlets and will continue to operate even after the grid goes down. You can test this by opening the AC IN breaker on the epanel. The sub panel should remain energized.
You should not use the sub panel to feed anything that goes back to your utility service panel. The GFX AC OUT must be isolated from the utility power.
My system uses a single meter and I'm having a hard time imagining where you are placing your second meter to measure power output unless it is on the AC IN line. The GFX AC IN wire connects the inverter to your utility service entrance panel. When the inverter is not able to supply the loads on the AC OUT line, it will draw utility power to supply the loads, and your meter will run in one direction signifying consumption of utility power. When the solar panels are providing adequate power, the inverter will feed excess ac power back to the utility service entrance panel (through AC IN) where it will feed other household loads or go back out onto the grid. In this case your meter would run in the opposite direction signifying production of solar power.
The inverter has an internal transfer switch that prevents AC HOT OUT from feeding back to the AC HOT IN line. As long as you keep all the circuits coming from AC HOT OUT isolated from the rest of you house wiring, you should be ok. I think a load break test would confirm that you're not backfeeding any power to your main panel. On a day when you are SELLING consistently, put a volt meter on the breaker terminal screw your AC HOT IN wire is connected to. Open your main breaker shutting off power to the building. You should see the volt meter drop from 120 vac to 0 vac. If it doesn't your GFX inverter is energizing your service entrance panel because something is wired incorrectly.
