"-"sign) and state of charge. The state of charge (SOC) is indicated by coloured lines
ranging from red, indicating that the battery is low, to green, indicating that the battery is
charged.
The advanced 3Link BMS, when the alternator is operating, activates the battery charge
intelligently, obtaining maximum current up to 75A (depending on the alternator
characteristics), resulting in a reduction of charging times, and therefore, greater autonomy
during stops. All without overloading the cell system, which is actually excluded when it is
charging, from the passing of current to the 3Lion.
The amount of current that can be charged to the battery is closely related to the type of
alternator installed on the vehicle. The higher its power, the greater the amount of current
that the 3Link can draw from it. Alternator powers below 120A are not recommended, as
the fast recharge of the battery will not be fully exploited.
The charge by alternator is NOT active, if the vehicle is EURO6 with "Smart Alternator".
In this case it is necessary to follow the installation scheme "System with 3Lion+3link with
Smart Alternator (EURO6)" and select the checkbox on "Smart Alternator" from the
"Settings" menu, as described below.
