No, but can be tricky to set up. See the manual linked from the product page links. Be careful not to overload the alternator. Try to keep total load including vehicle to about 50% of rated output.

If you can't do it by program because of the way your smart alternator works, then switch it from the radio switched feed or another switched feed in the vehicle.
