Heater

[fondberg]

First off, great work!

Do you know if it is possible to turn on the heater or perhaps enable AC with some temperature?

[gmta]

There seems to be a largely hardcoded payload in the airconditioning mode call that might be interesting to experiment with:

https://github.com/phev-remote/phevcore/blob/57d89c2d9dd175eba613d74ce856aa5f766dbb50/src/phev.c#L353

Not sure if they do anything at all (except for val which sets both the mode and duration). As far as I know, the official app does not support setting the temperature so it might be a limitation (turn on/off vs. climate control).

[fondberg]

The official app has climate with heat and cold afaik. I will probably dig into this later when my Wifi bridge (or do you know if anyone has made one already to bridge to the cars wifi) is setup. I have way too many open source projects going on right now so it might take a while. Will definitely try and help out when that comes comes.

But is standard heat mode such as phevctl acmode heat 20 supposed to work? Cause I can't get that to work eventhough it's listed in the help, and the process reports success:

A bit low on battery when I issued the command above, but I've also tried when the battery is charged.

Don't suppose anyone knows the can us message required to turn on the heater? I'm trying to run an electric heater on my DIY EV. A can bus log when the heater is running would be great.
