Well the bmwi3 logic is like so:

1) v_env_on is initialised to false when the module is initialised
2) When the OBD-2 bus goes dead for 3 seconds I turn off my polling and set
v_env_on to false
3) Otherwise, v_env_on is set to (pollerstate == POLLSTATE_READY &&
StdMetrics.ms_v_env_gear->AsInt() != 0) - i.e. OBD alive, car is responsive
on the OBD, and its in gear.  You can't put it in gear unless its "ready".
This was the best I could do since I can't find an OBD2 that plainly
distinguishes "on" (viz accessory position) from "ready" (let's go).

If the module boots up and the OBD2 is alive there will be a brief interval
of v.e.on being false and as soon as we see obd2 traffic and see the car in
gear (that is polled every 4 seconds when the car is READY) then v.e.on
will change to true.

I suppose that may be enough time for this alarm to go off?

Steve
