Difference Between BAT EPU and DCT/BAT switch on AS350

Greetings,

Anyone got any idea what the difference is between the BAT EPU and DCT/BAT switch on the AS350 center console is. I'm specifically looking at a B2, but B3's appear to have the same setup.

In the B2 flight manual I have there is only 1 Bat/EPU switch. The Bat automatically cuts in and out depending on whether the EPU is connected. I've got the Nemeth Designs AS350 B3 model for FSX and it appears that the DCT/BAT switch has no function at all. Anyone got thoughts on this? Google searches don't appear to contain the info I need, but an up-to-date flight manual for a B2 or B3 may.

Thanks,
Ian
