Alternator Control Base Output

Alternator Control Base Output



Base

The amount of duty cycle required to have the Battery Voltage meet the Target Voltage. The alternator control operates in closed loop, so it is possible the actual duty being used by the Nexus R5 ECU may not match the Base Duty value. If not, the Base Duty should be adjusted to be as close as possible to normal operating duty.
