Hi
The second item that Kevin has posted is your problem.
If you start the airplane with external power with a flat battery, the battery will not charge because the battery contactor is not pulled in. Unfortunatly the external power socket is not across the battery.

If you had jumpered directly across the battery you would have had no problem in bringing the alternator on line.

This is a reason for having the alternator restart system on the newer models.

Pete
