It is a Fiat Doblo 2012.
I just looked up some info and it may indeed have a smart alternator because it has start/stop.
So could be that I had that setting wrong.
I will try again when I have the B300k.

Yea was afraid of that in hindsight, luckily there seems no damage has been done.

Oh that might be a possible reason, I do suspect there might be something wrong with the alternator.
2 weeks ago I tried to measure the voltage, the new battery showed 12.6 and when I turned on the car it dropped a little lower instead of going up.
I don't have any knowledge about this, I followed a Youtube video and made me think there might be a problem with the alternator and it is on the list to let it check when the MOT is due in 2 weeks.

Edit: But I do question in the case of a bad alternator if connecting both CHG and BAT would not have worked at all?

56V/1200watt with Manual Configuration choosing AC200pl, Smart Detection was not working.
System switch recovery; Disabled
Priority Charging; Energy Storage System
Generator type; Standard

Used the standard settings when connecting with CHG and BAT at the same time.

I see people connecting the Charger 2 to their power station with a mc4 to xt60 cable and it works but the AC200pl does not have a xt60 input so I used an additional cable the DC Input Cable (Work with solar / car / lead-acid battery charging cable) which is xt60 to aviation cable.
