I can help, but I don't have the car and trial-and-error without that is proving impossible. The alternative (building a simulator) is possible (and I've done some work towards it), but just not enough free hours in the day.</div><div><br></div><div>The current nissan leaf support module in OVMS is based on listening for data from the bus. We have recently built a polling-model into the vehicle.{h,c} base functionality, that could be simply extended for the Leaf's slightly unique OBDII PID polling style. I think that is the best approach long-term, as it allows us to poll both the car and EV can buses.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards, Mark.</div><div><br><div><div>On 16 Apr, 2014, at 12:54 am, Nigel Jones <<a href="mailto:nigel@cherrybyte.me.uk">nigel@cherrybyte.me.uk</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">Hey there.......<div><br></div><div>I just wanted to pop in and give a quick wave... I've had my (leased) nissan leaf Gen.1 for 2 years and love it. I've got hold of a leafdd to keep a closer eye on battery level but am especially interested in OVMS for monitoring/recording data in near real time.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I am aware there's no supported leaf support yet, though I do know some work was done. There's also been some work on the CAN bus(es) by the guy working on leafdd, and other projects over at <a href="http://mynissanleaf.com/">mynissanleaf.com</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>I'm a developer by background, even if my current job role is more around integration & architecture so there seemed to be a match here - has a leaf to try, interested in getting hands dirty with the code.</div>
<div><br></div><div>So my plan is to get hold of some OVMS hardware, take a look through the code (I have done a git clone already), review this mailing list & see how I can contribute, specifically in terms of the leaf specific support. It's been a while since I've had the C compiler out but it used to be my bread and butter (mostly working on voice/telecoms systems including embedded HW, though much more sophisticated)</div>
<div><br></div><div>Rome wasn't built in a day, and I have a full time job & other commitments but planning to give this a shot. </div><div><br></div><div>It's only fair to mention I do work in IT for IBM UK, but this activity is purely on personal time (with agreement by my employer of no conflict of interest).</div>
<div><br></div><div>Anyway - Hi!</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://about.me/planetf1">http://about.me/planetf1</a><br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br>----<br>Nigel Jones
