Smart BMS 12/200 and Blue Smart IP67 12/25

Smart BMS 12/200 with Victron Lithium Smart 330Ah. There is a SmartShunt connected as well.

I want to integrate a Blue Smart 12/25 into the system.


Two Questions:

1. When I'm bench testing the system in my garage, can I connect the Blue Smart to the Smart BMS Alternator+ in Power Supply mode to simulate a connected alternator? If I set the current to >13V will this simulate charging and so I can test the load/charge disconnect?

2. In normal operation, do I put it on the System+ side in Power Supply at >13V mode as well? My electrical diagram will (eventually) look nearly identical to this one:
