An alternator control system for an alternator having an internal output voltage regulator that measures and regulates the charging voltage through an internal feedback line may include a switch on the internal feedback line; a variable voltage source connected to the internal output voltage regulator; an external feedback line configured to be connected to measure a condition of the battery receiving the charging voltage at the battery; and a controller connected to receive a signal corresponding to the condition of the battery over the external feedback line, and in response thereto, selectively open the switch, and selectively actuate the variable voltage source to selectively vary the voltage input to the internal output voltage regulator, thereby causing the internal output voltage regulator to signal the alternator to correspondingly vary the output voltage so that a voltage reaching the battery is at a pre-set value. |
