<p>One more thought from a newbie to this issue which just came to
my mind...</p>
<p>Where is the added value of this expensive solution compared to
just reading the 12V voltage. My eUp measures 12.6V when its shut
down and 14.4V when its ready-to-drive/driving or charging.</p>

DB9 pin #1 is used for k-line. I guess it could be re-used for two
purposes (on an expansion card).
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">That said, it would make the cabling a little
tricky. The DB9 12V is permanent. Having a 12v switched supply
as well would presumably mean a loose wire coming out of the
cable? Seems easier to just make a simple DA26 cable with just 1
pin connected to a loose wire (or other wire outputs for relay,
and general inputs, etc) - kind of why I was thinking of making
this a more sophisticated board.</div>

<div class=""> The re-certification requirement is a PITA
for hardware evolution. But I'm ok with extending the
K-line board, many OBD vehicles will still have K-line
devices (even the Twizy's UCH and airbag modules are on
K-line / KWP2000).<br class="">
<br class="">
Regarding the DB9, can't we use pin 1 (GEP_7) for this?<br

It is hard to modify the main board, without voiding
the certifications we have (and going through the
expense of re-certifying).
<div class=""><br class="">

<div class="">Simplest would be to implement this on
an expansion board. Perhaps extend the K-line board
we have to do other functions (12v switched status,
relay control, etc)?</div>

I remember the current Leaf also has the

filtered by a gateway to only support
polling.<br class="">
<br class="">
I think we should generally add a +12V
ignition signal detection to the<br class="">
next OVMS hardware revision, i.e. without
the need to add extra hardware.<br class="">
<br class="">
There is no standard for the ignition /
switched +12V being available at<br class="">
the OBD port, but I think most cars will
have that. If a car doesn't, it<br class="">
should still be easy to get from around the
OBD port (e.g. fuses).<br class="">
