Hi, is it possible to see:

Hi,

This plugin will translate vedirect to signal K. It does not add any other information.

Is there a specific variable you are looking for, that is available somewhere else?

Hi, as I need is one information:

BATTERY CURRENT, how much current the mppt regulator (in this case) send to the battery

This is a different information from Panel Power, that is how much power the panel is generating

Is it possible to have?

Thanks Max

If you have a code for it, we should be able to add it. If you look at https://github.com/SignalK/vedirect-serial-usb/blob/master/lib/fields.js, there are codes for each item this plugin reports. I would have thought that 'electrical.solar.*.loadCurrent' covered your needs?
