Sync 3 upgrade, ignition on, battery on charge

Anyone know if the sync3 upgrade can be done with ignition on and the battery hooked up to a charger?

I used to upgrade my satnav in my old car like this, putting it on charge meant it didn't auto shutdown when it detected low battery.

That's a lot of trouble to go and I'd be careful because of the intelligent battery monitor on this vehicle. If it's a Sync3 software upgrade it only takes around 20-25 mins anyway.

As @Comares2001 says, a Sync software update (as opposed to a map update) only takes about 20 mins. The system won't auto shutdown for an hour. I did my last update with just the ignition on and it worked fine.
