DDOS - Entire Country of Vietnam banned

Starting yesterday we saw massive bulks of requests that overloaded our server. I blocked two of the most active subnets and the requests stopped.

Today though I found the situation to be even worse. I searched some of the subnets and found they all originated from Vietnam.

So as a temporary ...

Yeah this needs clarifying. The BMS uses the STM32 NVRAM to store some long term process values, most importantly SoH. If you don't care about the latter you might as well interrupt the supply completely.

By default there is no termination resistor. Close the solder jumper JP1 on the wifi module to enable one.

Also at this point I want to stress that reflashing never actually solves a problem. If you have a working device once it will not change afterwards. Most people who think they solved a problem by reflashing also changed something else along with this.

Re: what am I doing wrong ??? ESP32 flashing

Powering the module from USB can work if USB provides stable voltage. The message you quote seems to indicate it is not. So power it with a lab supply. Which module are we talking about anyway (picture)?

Also I much recommend staying on the well trotten path of platformio. With that set up all you ...

Read and understand :)
You don't have python installed

Not sure why you're not seeing PWM. You've already modified the code anyway, you can achieve a fixed PWM by setting pwmmin and pwmmax to the same value.

Re: Foccci wakeup/sleep discussions

D8 ensures that EN is never driven high by anything. It has an internal pull-up. The various wakeup signals can allow that pullup to actually pull EN high. If no wake up source is active EN is forced low by R56

Re: Tesla Cobra, Orion 2 Discharge Limits

The low temperature discharge limit is pointless, I'd take that out. But that's not really the question ;)

I would not exceed 50°C by much either. If you really reach a temperature that high just by driving maybe the cooling is not adequate? Well not for you anyway but for your customer it is ...

Binary attached. In run mode there are no further conditions for displaying "idc". So it's not il1 or il2 but idc, mapped to Pin A5
