Thanks for your input, Michael. I agree that we could use the relative metrics to roughly estimate the current assumed pressure from a reference value (which would have to be updated every time a user presses the TPMS reset button...). But: I'm afraid the correlation is not linear, probably not even reproducible. Also, we have two pressure-related values per wheel, while OVMS for now has a pressure and a temperature value. So... I think I'd still prefer two relative indicators for the e-up in the app. I can try to work on implementing a custom MP record. sharkcow Am 08.01.21 um 18:33 schrieb Michael Balzer:
Sharkcow,
as we don't have a new capabilities message scheme yet, conditional blocks are the way it works right now in the App.
The meanings of standard metrics and message data fields should not be changed. Introducing custom metrics and a custom MP record is a possible solution.
But having custom solutions for common things like this is a PITA. Maybe we can work something out to convert the readings into the standard metrics?
For example: if you get a "health percentage", we could introduce a configuration for the "100%" health pressure level, so we can get an absolute value from that.

I have now figured out how to read and partly how to interpret the metrics of the indirect TPMS on the e-up.
We get a "tyre emergency" and a "pressure diffusion" value for each wheel.
Since the values are relative, I would like to transmit them to the app as raw data and only display a percentage (100% means everything is ok).
Would it be ok to just introduce an if-statement in the app to detect whether the vehicle type is an e-up and change the default displays accordingly?

PS: I feel this value (incl. a useful alert value) would be very beneficial: I just found out that I had lost quite some pressure over the 2 years I own the vehicle without TPMS reacting. The metrics on OBD showed a nicely measureable change however, which could easily be used to have OVMS notify me. (Yes, I should have checked the pressure regularly, but hey: what's a TPMS for?!)
