BMV-712: operate the relay if SOC is above a value

Hi folks!
I have on my sailing boat a Victron Smart LFP battery, a Victron Smart BMS CL 12-100, a Victron BMV-712 Smart and a bunch of other Victron stuff.

The BMS has neither VE.Direct nor VE.Smart connectivity so it cannot communicate with the 712 to determine the Smart Lithium battery SOC.

The BMV-712 has the capability to operate its relay if the battery SOC is below a certain value, I think it could be very useful to change the relay state if the SOC is above a certain value also, for instance to tell the BMS to stop charging the battery when SOC is above 90% interrupting the BMS remote on/off plug.

Is it possible to modify the 712 firmware to do so?

Thank you.

Ciao!
