#################
# Install notes #
#################

SERIAL battery connection: The installation is complete. You don't have to do anything more.

BLUETOOTH battery connection: There are a few more steps to complete installation.

    1. Add your Bluetooth BMS to the config file "/data/etc/dbus-serialbattery/config.ini".
       Check the default config file "/data/etc/dbus-serialbattery/config.default.ini" for more informations.
       If your Bluetooth BMS are nearby you can show the MAC address with "bluetoothctl devices".

    2. Make sure to disable Bluetooth in "Settings -> Bluetooth" in the remote console/GUI to prevent reconnects every minute.

    3. Re-run "/data/etc/dbus-serialbattery/reinstall-local.sh", if the Bluetooth BMS were not added to the "config.ini" before.

    ATTENTION!
    If you changed the default connection PIN of your BMS, then you have to pair the BMS first using OS tools like the "bluetoothctl".
    See https://wiki.debian.org/BluetoothUser#Using_bluetoothctl for more details.

CAN battery connection: There are a few more steps to complete installation.

    1. Add your CAN port to the config file "/data/etc/dbus-serialbattery/config.ini".
       Check the default config file "/data/etc/dbus-serialbattery/config.default.ini" for more informations.

    2. Make sure to select a profile with 250 kbit/s in "Settings -> Services -> VE.Can port -> CAN-bus profile" in the remote console/GUI.

    3. Re-run "/data/etc/dbus-serialbattery/reinstall-local.sh", if the CAN port was not added to the "config.ini" before.

CUSTOM SETTINGS: If you want to add custom settings, then check the settings you want to change in "/data/etc/dbus-serialbattery/config.default.ini"
                 and add them to "/data/etc/dbus-serialbattery/config.ini" to persist future driver updates.

Any other information that may be helpful

with older version of driver (April? ) the 2 BMS are visible in Venus with all information, but after 2 days of operation the connection was broken. After installation of new driver I had connection to "grey"-BMS again, but also lost this after Updating Venus OS to 3.34

With v1.2.20240408 it worked, correct? Could you write me on Discord? Since I would like to connect to your system for troubleshooting.

WP-Rue commented 4 months ago

I have to install discord first… And yes- with the older version it worked…

WP-Rue commented 4 months ago

Sorry - we have to postpone it. I‘ll be abroad the next 3 weeks.

mr-manuel commented 1 month ago

I troubleshooted the Bluetooth problems now way over 100 hours and found no real solution to all this problems. Therefore I decided to not put any other effort into the Bluetooth part. Another reason is, that the users apparently do not appreciate the work I do and they cannot immagine how much time consuming this all is.

For that 1-2 donations, if at all, a month on over 9.000 dbus-serialbattery installations it is not worth it. If everyone would donate 1 €/year then the motivation would be another, but that is not the case.

Feel free to open a PR in my repository to help me with this :-)
