[Ovmsdev] VW e-Up read/poll via OBD is working

[Soko]

Ahhh OK, I've found OvmsVehicle::virtual void TickerXXX(uint32_t ticker);
Got it! This was exactly my issue as I didn't know about any function 
which gets called regularly so I could check something like this...
It's not an ideal situation though: I just can slow down the poll after 
my fail-counter gets too high as I need to check when the car gets 
powered again. So all I can do is polling, lets say every 60 secs when 
the car is off, and increase it once its on. But there is now way around 
this 60-sec polling if the only thing I can do is poll :(

Afaik there is only the sharkcow's list below, reverse engineered by him 
from ODBeleven.

(dev)marxx exlpained to me: There is a gateway between the CAN-Buses and 
the OBD Connector in all VW-AG vehicles which only replies to polls and 
also acts as security gateway if you want to write to the buses.

So I think I cannot really do a can log or use re tool as the OBD 
interface stays quiet if I'm not polling it...

And as there is no other vehicle from VW,Seat,Skoda,Audi,etc. in OVMS. 
So I have no cheat-sheet :(

Anyhow... I would need to poll one ECU (is this the correct therm?) 
which doesn't shuts down... or maybe the issue is the OBD-gateway 
shutting down.

What do you think?
