Wind controller for Batts [RE-wrenches]

Greetings all,

Can anyone tell me if the Trace C-60 CC does three stage "charge
control" when used as a diversion regulator in a wind system?  I know it
will do bulk, absorption, float and even EQ when used as a PV charge
control, but does it take the battery through a similar routine when
used as a diversion controller.  

It sometimes seems like the difference between PV people/manufacturers
and Wind folks/manufacturers is that PV people design systems around the
battery to maximize battery performance and life service, while wind
folks consider batteries to be little more than a necessary nuisance.
We install these really nice, smart CC's for PV like the Solar Boost 50,
and along comes the addition of a wind generator and the whole battery
gets stupid.
