Only ALT Charging—Starter Battery & House Battery
Connected
1.ALT charging will follow this chart, depending on your
alternator type.
Alternator Type
Cut-in Cut-off
Starting Battery Voltage
Smart Alternator
Traditional Alternator
>13.2V,
for 15 seconds
<12.7V
>12.0V,

<11.5V
2. ALT will prioritize charge to the
starter battery bank and charge until
the starter battery reaches above
the Cut-in Voltage.
3.Next, ALT will charge the house
battery until the lead-acid battery
reaches the Float Voltage. If the
house battery is Lithium, ALT will
need to reach the Boost Voltage and
derate amps completely to indicate
fully charged.
