avoid performing a calculation based on a (slightly) outdated power
meter reading, which was aquired just before the limit was actually
applied by the inverter, but which was received by OpenDTU-OnBattery
after the inverter stats.
without a power meter configured, the DPL now sets the base load as the
inverter limit if the battery charge allows it. it also takes
solar-passthrough into account, i.e., if the battery is in a charge
cycle but the solar output (Victron MPPT) is significant, the solar
power will be used up until the base load. if the battery reaches the
full solar passthrough threshold, the DPL will match the inverter limit
to the MPPT solar output.
on power meter issues (usually a timeout), keep the inverter enabled and
make it produce the configured base load limit if the battery can be
discharged. that should be okay since the base load config value is
expected to be small and a little less than the actual household base
load, i.e., if this amount of power is produced, the household will
consume it in any case and no energy is fed into the grid.
makes the value match its description. since most values in the top part
of the live view are related to the AC side of the system, it makes
sense to use the correct value rather than to change the description.
* process "IL", "AR" and "MON"
* discard "BMV" and (unsolicited) History Data
* simplify isDataValid()
* veMpptStruct, veStruct: new, verbose variable names, including units,
and replace floats (save values with original integer precision)
* comment on rollover situation in isDataValid()
1. makes the DPL use the power generated by all connected charge
controllers for calculations based on solar passthrough.
2. makes the network total DC power appear as "MPPT Total Power" in the
live view at the top.
3. shows the network total DC power in the VE.Direct live data card.
* show charge controller temperature in live view
* send hex requests right after decoding a frame. this seems to have the
best chance of getting an answer to all requests.
* deem 0xFFFFFFFF value of network total DC power as invalid indicator.
neither network state, nor network info, nor network mode seem to
indicate that the charge controller is part of a VE.Smart network. for
that reason, we revert to always querying the network total DC power
value, but testing it for max(uin32_t) value, which seems to indicate
that the charge controller is not part of a VE.Smart network.
* improve (verbose) logging, e.g., use _logId, and print names of
response codes and known registers, always print error messages,
add additional tests to prevent overly verbose messages.
* move hex protocol definitions to VeDirectData.h header
and use enum classes
* define register addresses in enum class
* move values retrieved through hex protocol into main MPPT data struct
* do not send HEX requests if the serial interface cannot send data
* detect whether smart battery sense temperature is available
* web app: make all VE.Direct sub-cards iterable. this makes addind more
values much simpler and saves a bunch of code in the web app.
* make VeDirectFrameHandler state a type-safe enum class
* unindent MPPT controller loop()
* whitespace cleanup
double precision floating point numbers are not needed to handle
VE.Direct values. handling double is implemented in software and hence
*much* more resource intensive.
queue every text event until the frame was checked by it checksum. then
process the data directly into the buffer struct. do not clear the
buffer struct, so it will always include the most recent value of a
particular data point.
