Oh, no, now I need vehicle age :-( Time to dig out the CAN bus logger... Regards, Mark. On 16 Apr, 2013, at 9:19 AM, Tom Saxton wrote:
Mark,
That's great! I am very interested to see that graph, too. I will feature it prominently in the Plug In America Roadster study report.
I'm also going to send email to all of the survey participants who haven't yet submitted their CAC value and let them know they can now get the CAC from OVMS, the Tattler, my log parser, and Doug's log parser.
Thanks so much for finding it on the CAN bus. That's a huge help to the cause! Being able to check the CAC with OVMS made it much easier to work on getting it from the log file.
Our Roadster is "redacted#3" at almost 4 years and over 32,000 miles with the CAC at 149.97, so down 9% from a nominal new pack. We got a new battery pack at 18 months and 14,000 miles, so we only have 18,000 on this pack, but still I'm pretty happy with 9% loss after 4 years and a bunch of fun driving.

The first six cars are reporting this. Lowest seems to be 144.03 (corresponding to a 10% loss in battery capacity).
It will be really interesting to see odometer vs cac, long-term.
Regards, Mark.
P.S. My only CAC just changed from 156.94 to 157.04, with the 2 year anniversary of the car coming up, so I'm happy :-)

Nice work, Mark!
I'm very pleased to see CAC added to the OVMS toolset, both for the charge time prediction algorithm and also so that owners will have a clean way to get that important value.
Being able to easily access the CAC value will also be quite valuable to the Roadster survey.

Now I need to take another look at the log files. Knowing how it's encoded on the CAN bus may make it easier to find the value in the log.

Tom, 'roadsters',
I'm searching for the CAC value on the Tesla Roadster.
Here is a log extract. The first NOTE is just before we called up the diagnostic screen, and the second NOTE was after the screen had appeared. I also attach the matching diagnostics screen.

Most likely candidate is the "102 06" being used to inform the VMS we are looking at the ESS SOC screen, then the VMS steaming a few message with the information requested. We've seen "102 06" a screen switch command, a few times in the past. It seems to awake dormant stuff in the VMS.

For the 'rest', that it six pairs of A1 A2 lines, with an index value of 01 through 06, and then 12 bytes of data (2x6) for each. Kind of looks like the 6 lines of date based AH log.
For the 9E, 9F and A0, we need to find: SOC LIM: 68% (0x44 single byte hex) SOC MIN: 68% (0x44 single byte hex) SOC MAX: 70% (0x46 single byte hex) CAC: 156.99Ah AR:91.54Ah #Ah: 0.0Ah #kWh: 0.00kWh EVC: 3.7V kWhR: 33.71kWh RR: 123 miles (0x7B 0x00 tesla-style LSB-first, 2 byte hex) dRMS: 52A (0x34 single byte hex) dAI: 560mO (0x30 0x02 tesla-style LSB-first, 2 byte hex) dWhM: 273Wh/mile (0x11 0x01 tesla-style LSB-first, 2 byte hex) Given: 127.6579 100 9E 44 FD 9C 8A 5B 44 46 ->VDS (message to VDS 9E) 127.6586 100 9F 00 00 00 00 00 B5 21 ->VDS (message to VDS 9F) 127.6590 100 A0 3B 34 00 30 02 11 01 ->VDS (message to VDS A0)
Here' s my working (both to show others how such a search is done, and also to document it):
We can get rid of some easy ones:
127.6579 100 9E <SOCLIM?> FD 9C 8A 5B <SOCMIN?> <SOCMAX> 127.6586 100 9F 00 00 00 00 00 B5 21 127.6590 100 A0 3B 34 00 30 02 11 01
Working:
5B8A(hex) = 23434(decimal) 9CFB(hex) = 40187(decimal) and 23434/40187 = 0..5831238957 while Ah/CAC (91.54/156.99) = 0.5833174026
So, those two seem to be good candidates. Interestingly:
40187 / 156.99 = 255.98
Could it be that?
9CFD(hex) = 40187(decimal). Then 40187/256 = 156.98 5B8A(hex) = 23434(decimal). Then 23434/256 = 91.54
Close, but no cigar. We're 0.01 off on the CAC. The Tesla loves bytes, and hates decimals (just like the PIC), so how about if we treat them as separate bytes (essentially rather than /100, try /256):
9C.FD (hex) = 156.99 5B.8A (hex) = 91.54
Woohoo! I think we may have a match. Plugging in these, and some of the other ones I found along the way, gives us:
127.6579 100 9E <SOCLIM?> <CACLSB> <CACMSB> <ARLSB> <ARMSB> <SOCMIN?> <SOCMAX> 127.6586 100 9F 00 00 00 00 00 <kWhRLSB> <kWhRMSB> 127.6590 100 A0 3B <dRMSLSB> <dRMSMSB> <dAILSB> <dAIMSB> <dWhMLSB> <dWhMMSB>
And the notes would be:
SOC LIM: 68% (0x44 single byte hex) - 100 9E (B2) SOC MIN: 68% (0x44 single byte hex) - 100 9E (B7) SOC MAX: 70% (0x46 single byte hex) - 100 9E (B8) CAC: 156.99Ah - 100 9E (B4 .

I did a search for '100 9E' in all my old logs, and find only one other:
anon1_charge_heating049.txt: 0.0 100 9E 3F A1 9C 40 52 3F 42 ->VDS (message to VDS 9E)
Not exactly surprising, as presumably that diagnostic screen would have had to be open, while the can log was being captured. Very rare. That is a charging log provided by one the the users here. I've labelled it anonymous, because I'm not sure if he publicised the data. Putting the same decode logic in, would give us for him: SOC LIM: 63% SOC MIN: 63% SOC MAX: 66% CAC: 156..63Ah AR: 82.24Ah
I did a search for '9C FD' through the rest of my logs (including a large 20 minute one), and is did't show up anywhere apart from '100 9E'.
So, my conclusion is that I'm pretty sure this is the CAC value, as well as a bunch of other techy metrics and the last six consumption history records. Nasty is that we have to request it (with a 102 06 D0 07 00 00 00 00 40). We could presumably stop the request (with a 102 06 10 …), but it times out after a while anyway.
I think what I'll do is add that to the code for charge completion in vehicle_teslaroadster, and add a decoder to pick the CAC up off the bus and report it back. That way, we'll check the CAC every time a charge completes. If any other vehicles have a useful indication of overall battery health, they can use the same value.
Regards, Mark.
P.S. What is CAC? It is the "Calculated Amp-hour Capacity" and supposedly a very good indication of the capacity of the vehicle's battery.Tesla Roadster owners are using it to track long-term degradation of their batteries, and Tom Saxton will be very happy with me if I can get this back to him from a reasonable number of Tesla Roadsters. It will be my thank you to him for his work on charge completion time estimation, and definitely worth a few minutes CAN-bus logging in the car (but not so sure about the hours staring through those logs with a decimal-hex calculator :-) _______________________________________________ OvmsDev mailing list OvmsDev@lists.teslaclub.hk http://lists.teslaclub.hk/mailman/listinfo/ovmsdev
