Executive Summary: Penguin's Explorer, referenced above, had a voltage regulator that read battery voltage, and decided whether to charge the battery or not. Worked pretty darn well. OTOH, the above document takes 35 pages to explain when the alternator should be charging the E70, or not.
This is actually a BMW training manual used in schooling techs, as good of info as it gets for most things.
