[Ovmsdev] 12v battery alert threshold?

[Michael Balzer]

Greg,

Mark disabled the 12V alerts on the roadster firmware some commits ago.

Regarding the alert configuration:

commit 9c1a991a9a27de8afdc9fd408262a2fe0be7aef4

    Vehicle: 12V battery monitoring & alert
   
    New configs:
    - vehicle [12v.alert] = 1.6       Voltage drop alert threshold in V vs. reference
   
    New metrics:
    - v.b.12v.voltage.ref             12V reference voltage [V]
    - v.b.12v.voltage.alert           Alert status (bool)


This works like the old V2 12V monitoring, just a bit improved. The reference voltage is taken after max 15 minutes calmdown time after 12V charging stops. The
initial reference is the first voltage measured at boot.

Also, the AD conversion needs to be calibrated for each module, to compensate component tolerances. If you haven't done that for your modules yet, their 12V
measurements will differ. To calibrate, measure your real 12V level and change config system.adc factor12v accordingly for each module.

Regards,
Michael
