[Ovmsdev] Tesla Roadster VDS Alerts

I also went looking for a way of determining when a USB log transfer had completed, in my Tesla Roadster today. This has been asked for some time ago, with a view of reminding the user to download their logs from the car before they get rotated.
Along the way, I seem to have found the VDS alert mechanism.
Apologies for the blurry-cam image, but this is what it looks like when you download log files to USB stick on the Tesla Roadster:
The interesting parts are the ID and Data fields. The ID identifies the screen type (so 25 is "Memory stick transfer in progress") and Data is id-specific. For ID 25, it is the percentage complete (so counting up from 0x00 to 0x64).
Looking at my captured logs for this, I find something sticking out:
20.3270 100 93 00 FF FF 00 00 00 00 ->VDS (message to VDS 93)
27.0199 100 93 00 FF FF 00 00 00 00 ->VDS (message to VDS 93)

639.7882 100 93 00 FF FF 00 00 00 00 ->VDS (message to VDS 93)
I found that by looking for the ID 25. Didn't find it, so tried 25 (decimal) = 0x19 (hex).
A decode of that would be:
612.5599 100 93 15 19 00 64 00 00 00 ->VDS (message to VDS 93)
ID: 100 B1=93 VDS alert notification
B2 is some indication of whether this is 'opening' or 'closing'
B3(LSB),B4(MSB) is ID
B5(LSB),B6,B7,B8(MSB) is data
So, I'm happy. I can look for "100 93 15 19 00 64 00 00 00" as an indication that someone did a log transfer and it got to 100%. Now, all I need is to work-out how long until the logs rotate?
Tom/Whoever: do you have anything good for that? I believe it is drive time based, which may be tricky?
Another, slightly concerning thing, is I don't know who transferred the logs. If it went to the service dept, they routinely pull the logs, and that would show up in the same way. Hmmm. Anyway, better than nothing.
But, what was interesting, is I then wondered where else '100 93' appears (in particular without the idle condition '100 93 00 FF FF'). Here's what I found:
$ fgrep -r '100 93' *|grep -v '93 00 FF FF'

A few of those stand out like sore thumbs.
20120218.charge.breakerstop.txt
Note in the log file there is:
71.3999 NOTE A second or two before breaker stop
73.1820 100 93 01 BA 03 00 00 20 00 ->VDS (message to VDS 93)
Conclusion: ID 0x03BA data 0x00002000 is 'breaker tripped'. Or lost line sync, or whatever the message is (I forget).
20130303-vehiclelogtousb/vehiclelogs.txt
This is my vehicle log dump to USB. ID 0x0019, data is percentage complete.
charge.20111108.txt
No notes on this. It appears to be a log testing various charging scenarios.
The ID was 0x048D and data 0x00000020.
Later on we get another ID 0x03A6 and data 0x00000002.
trip.20111108.txt
No notes. Just a drive.
The ID was 0x048D and data 0x00000020.
My conclusion is that '100 93' is an instruction to the VDS to tell it to display an error screen to the user. The textual message is derived from the error code (probably a lookup table in the VDS). I am not sure how these messages are 'cleared'. You can tap-to-dismiss on the VDS, which removes the alert but leaves a "(!)" on the VDS to show the alert is still a problem. That "(!)" goes away when the cause of the alert goes away. Somehow this is encoded in that B2. We could reverse the textual messages from ID by spoofing the message and seeing what the VDS displays,, but that would mean sending 65,535 errors to my VDS and I'm not comfortable doing that :-)
I did find a partial listing:

(reproduced here for historical purposes)
Roadster VDS Messages
A list of the VDS messages which can appear and if possible, some advice to the owner who sees them. The VDS can operate in Standard or Debug mode. You enter Debug mode either by tapping the VDS six times and entering a special code, or by letting MPT get in your car.
ID Text under normal circumstances Debug text (not normally displayed) Notes / Suggestions
25 Memory Stick transfer in progress. ... Car is downloading logs to USB memory stick.
269 BSM: Negative contactor/economizer stuck low
287 Power train Problem Service Required
409 TPMS: Hardware Error Tire pressure cannot be monitored reliably.
604 ESS: Low State of charge: power limiting in effect You need to recharge
936 Charging Problem
937 Charge Problem Extension Cord Detected
954 Line Voltage Lost Sync DMC FW: Line Voltage Lost Sync or UnderFrequency Fault Bad power; try lowering the current and restarting
974 DMC FW: Pole Current Error Fault
981 DMC FW: Bad State Transition Fault Dog tripped over charging cable. Discuss.
960 DMC FW: VBrickMax versus VBattery Error fault You don't want to know.
1092 Do not plug in charge cable while driving Key left in ignition while trying to plug in?
1144 Powertrain Problem Service Required Call your Tesla Shop!
1146 DMC Motor Fan Problem Low fan speed. Only appears in debug mode? [1].
1170 Tow Mode is not available while car is on
? External Charger Problem ? UMC's red fault light blinking. Unplugged car & UMC, then replugged and all OK.
428 12V Battery Service Required ? Turned out battery fuse was missing.
1103 ABS & Traction Control Problems. Service Required. ? Pulling out ignition key and waiting until car shutdown (15 minutes) cleared it. Tesla couldn't find issue.
[1] I only ever saw this message in debug mode, and it was coming up a lot (several times per hour of driving). It completely stopped when I left debug mode. Not sure if this is coincidence.
and 954 (0x083A) and 25 (0x0019) match two of the ones in my logs.
Still some work to do (in particular to determine how the message is cleared/dismissed). But, how cool would it be to have these screens pop-up in the Apps as well? Sending them back as historical data, to record the event time, would also be helpful.
Regards, Mark.
