It is a bit of a hack using a breakout board for testing purposes. See photo attached. 

Looks like the unit is consistently crashing when it gets to initiating PPP connection. I'll do some more investigation on it at the weekend.

Probably already the largest plugin I've written so far, although it's
only version 0.5 yet?

Help & feedback is appreciated.

Regards,
Michael

Derek,

The for-v3.3 branch has support for the SIM7000 and SIM7600 modules I have been testing, but there are significant differences in SIMCOM firmware versions, so compatibility may depend on that. The for-v3.3 branch in general has issues with recovery from loss of connectivity that I haven?t managed to identify/fix yet.

I am surprised you got a SIM7000 to fit - my version had to have a new board design as the footprint is very different to the SIM7600 and SIM3600.

Regards, Mark

It required a few tweaks to the power cycling to turn it on/off reliably and now I have realised that it does not appear to support multiplexing of the uart. Any suggestions on the best way to proceed?  Will it require a rewrite of the ovms_cellular routines in the simcom_7000 code?

Hello! I'm new.

I have an OVMS installed now, and working pretty well on my 2018 Kia EV
Soul. I can now use the previously useless "third button" on the remote to
open the charging door, and remote lock and unlock the car. I can even show
a nearly useless (but fun) second speedometer using the web interface and
my iPad while driving by connecting to the OVMS AP. I have the antennas
connected and the cell phone modem working. Win!

I have SavvyCAN installed and working over wifi too. I have spare SD Cards
I can use if network streaming isn't enough.

I'm interested in trying to get some sort of pre-heating going in the Soul.
The story coming to mind:

 - As a driver, I'd like to be able to tell my Soul to start warming itself
up while connected to an EVSE, so that when I leave the house in ~30
minutes I'll have a warm car and won't have to spend my precious 180km of
range (who are we kidding, 150 in winter) on that.

It'd be nice to do this in the OVMS Android app somehow, but that's
negotiable.

>From stalking this forum and Kia SOUL EV forums, people have figured out
lots of things about the Soul but not this yet somehow?

I have a background in software dev and *nix systems administration, and
I'm a tinkerer at heart.

How do I get started? Naively, it seems like I would just ... what, start
SaavyCAN, sit in the car and ... turn the heat on? That can't possibly
work. Maybe ... have the scheduled cabin preheater start while SavvyCAN is
listening? I mean, surely someone tried that already? (I'll likely start
here if there's no alternative advice out there..)

Cheers,
Kyle
