developed by myself, this feature was now merged from upstream, and the
required changes are made to use the config write guard, which enforces
synchronized writes to the configuration struct.
the absorption and float voltage setting is retrieved from connected
Victron Ve.Direct MPPTs using the HEX protocol. the values are
displayed in the live view, published to MQTT, and added to Home
Assistent auto-discovery.
This changes the custom current limit so the custom limit is only
applied when any of:
- SoC is valid and not ignored and SoC < threshold
- Voltage is valid and Voltage < threshold
- Voltage is invalid
Independently, if "Use Battery-Reported limit" is enabled and valid, it
is applied (unless a lower custom limit already was applied).
the configuration write guard is now required when the configuration
struct shall be mutated. the write guards locks multiple writers against
each other and also, more importantly, makes the writes synchronous to
the main loop. all code running in the main loop can now be sure that
(1) reads from the configuration struct are non-preemtive and (2) the
configuration struct as a whole is in a consistent state when reading
from it.
NOTE that acquiring a write guard from within the main loop's task will
immediately cause a deadlock and the watchdog will trigger a reset. if
writing from inside the main loop should ever become necessary, the
write guard must be updated to only lock the mutex but not wait for a
signal.
a battery temperature value measured by a Victron smart battery sense
and communicated to a connected Victron MPPT charge controller will now
appear in the live view card.
* Allow scaleValue() for 32bit values
* Victron: Implement CAN message 0x360
This one-byte message is set to 0xff to request charging below a
certain SoC threshold (10% in my tests).
* Pytes: Add support for native CAN protocol
The recently added PytesCanReceiver.cpp implements the Victron CAN protocol.
This change additionally adds support for the native Pytes CAN
protocol messages.
Features only supported in Pytes protocol:
- High-resolution state of charge / full and remaining mAh
- Charge cycle counter
- Balancing state
Features only supported in Victron protocol:
- FW version
- Serial number
Note that the only known way to select the native Pytes protocol is
via the serial console (Cisco-compatible cables work):
```
login config
setprt PYTES
logout
```
to return to Victron protocol use:
```
login config
setprt VICTRON
logout
```
to return to DIP-switch based protocol setting:
```
login config
setprt DIP
logout
```
Due to a change in the Espressif Arduino core, the TX timeout for the HW CDC
(used in the ESP32-S3, for example) must not be set to 0, as otherwise, an
integer underflow occurs.
Removing the TX timeout is not necessary anymore anyways, because it is now
detected when CDC is not active, and attempts to write will return immediately
until the host read something again. Only when the transmit buffer becomes
full initially, the default timeout of just 100ms takes effect once.
For USB CDC (used with the ESP32-S2, for example), the timeout is not relevant
either.
