I don’t believe that you can control the battery at all from the modem.

AIUI, you can monitor - but not control.

I think you are correct.

The assumption seems to be that customers will use only the SiWi Battery Accessory - which comes complete with cable.

There seems to be no support for customers to create their own backup solutions.
