[Ovmsdev] 1.2.0 Release Candidate

[Mark Webb-Johnson]

Michael,

Regarding the SMS/PUSH notifications, I think it would be good to have a FEATURE control this, or extend the notification PARAM to include a setting (perhaps SMS vs SMSALL). The default could be to just notify on stopped, but the user could choose to notify whenever charging completes.

Regarding the push messages, I don't think we add the time ourselves. I guess it is added by Apple/Android.

Are you using Apple or Android, and can you show us on a screendump?

Thanks, Mark.

If you see the usual red-green alternating LED sequence then a solid green without any red light blinking, the switch is probably in the wrong position (you should try it in the other position, then reset the module).

>> Optional digital speedometer experimental code
>> Improvements in miles->km conversions
>> Improvements in modem initialisation and control
>> Fixes for support of sub-zero temperatures and battery pre-heating before charging
>> Watchdog timer support
>> App->Server->Car command support, including:
>> Start/Stop Charge
>> Set charge mode
>> Set charge current
>> Activate/Deactivate Valet Mode
>> Lock/Unlock Car (doors only - alarm and immobiliser cannot be deactivated where fitted [non-US cars])
>> Feature list and set
>> Parameter list and set
>> Wake up car
>> GPRS utilisation
>> Social group subscription
>> Ambient temperature monitoring
>> Many more vehicle parameters sent to server (including speed, direction, altitude, charge states, doors, etc)
>> 
>> The Android App (in the market) already has experimental support for most of these new features, and the iPhone App is currently being extended (and we should have an experimental testflight release this week).
>> 
>> We will most likely have a few more release candidate releases before final end-user firmware is cut, but we would like to get the current 1.2.0-rc3 installed in as many cars as possible, in the next few days - and would be grateful if you could assist.
