Not able to write values #3

Open SG87 opened 1 month ago

Hi @nessnaj,

This is a great repo! I am using it to connect to my charger. I can perfectly read, but unfortunately not write any values to registers. pause_charging(), set_current(), ...

Are you able to write? If yes, are you aware of any reasons why this might go wrong? Do you know if I can see any logs somewhere?

Many thanks!

Hi SG87,

I have no clue why it would not work for you to write the values. I am not aware that I had to do anything special to activate it. But is has been a while...

My suggestion is to look in the ACE Service Installer Application (on Windows) and check the 'Active Load Balancing' tick-box in the 'Load Balancing' menu block. This needs to be activated AFAIK.

Regarding the logs, the code makes use of syslog without any location definition, so it makes use of the default location. In my case on Ubuntu in /var/log/syslog.

Let me know if this was helpful...
