Re: Kia EV6 2p6s modules

If these modules use Max1785x slaves and you are struggling for support let me know. I have an STM32 and ESP32 solution.

Here's what the preamble should look like on both MAX17841 TX -> MAX17845 RX (up) and MAX17845 TX -> MAX17841 RX (down) pairs.

Hi,
Im currently working on my project with A Peugeot E-208 battery pack. The modules use MAX17854 chips and I use the PCB design from Manny with Arduino pro mini, MAX17841B along with BMS2_7_4.ino code, but I running into a problem where the serial monitor says:

For the Maxim ISO BUS connection, yes. These are the 2x twisted pair which forms a daily chain between the modules.

Yes. I have a few complete Maxim ISO-SPI dual CAN boards now rather than just the SPI interface. They use an ESP32-C6 and Arduino.

I have one left. It’s not too difficult to reuse the hardware from the vehicle if you have the main control module.

Re: Peugeot e-208 CATL modules BMS interface [SOLVED]

If anyone is having no comms issues with these modules there may be a fundamentally different slave IC in their packs.

Re: Renault Zoe Mk1 (2012-2019) - Basic Hardware Overview


If its supposed to be CCS EV to ChaDeMo EVSE it would be more complicated.


Yes, this is the plan. I suppose it would be easier to start with an open ended implementation of CCS and then patch in the mocked CHAdeMO vehicle as middleware.

Hi,

There’s no need to simulate a power meter, you can drive a FoxESS manually by commanding power.

Re: Fox ESS H1-5.0-E ~33KW Peugeot E208



For the V2X application, I already need to accurately report battery current to the ChaDeMo CAN interface. By offsetting this and reporting to the inverter via RS485, I can control the charge / discharge current.

Re: Open source CCS using AR7420

I see you have confused pyPLC.py P as a pseudo vehicle. Not just me then…

There’s no vehicle simulator here from what I can tell. P is for translating CHAdeMO can to CCS from what I can gather.

I can see the voltage in can data and on the meter, the contactors close initially because target voltage is reached. Going to change the capacitor and see what happens.

I think that cell voltage data goes in there too but I don't have a V2 FoxESS BMS master to get a can log from. You can see cell voltages on their cloud platform, numbered 1-141 IIRC.
