Vehicle Feature List wiki page
Hi, In order to help understand the current status of the Nissan Leaf support a Vehicle Feature List wiki page has been created. As I don't have access to an OVMS the Leaf entries are only what could be gleened from the code. Please feel free to contribute/correct as you see fit.

Have you seen the table at the end of the new OVMS V3 User Manual? https://docs.google.com/document/d/16JrXR7rybp-18DrEoeh1rg6GqQT_jVBvhaXh2oEW... I think that table is pretty accurate, although I just noticed that we added reading the VIN since was it last updated.

So, there should be a check mark for the Leaf and DMV Vehicle Identification number (v.vin)? Is that universal, or specific to any particular year model?<br>
Yes, that's right. I've only tested on my own 2015 model, but I believe it is the same on others.
I've made the edit; let me know if there are any additional changes needed.
Thanks. Looking at the table, all of the metrics on the first page are provided by the OVMS module itself, so it seems a bit misleading to have boxes implying that they are somehow vehicle-specific. I would suggest that these should either be in a separate table, or marked in a different way (e.g. having a single check mark spanning all the vehicle columns). The Leaf doesn't provide GPS position metrics, but perhaps there should be a note that these are available by enabling the on-board modem GPS: v.p.altitude v.p.direction v.p.gpshdop v.p.gpslock v.p.gpsmode v.p.gpsspeed v.p.latitude v.p.longitude v.p.satcount I'm not sure what happens if the modem GPS is enabled on a vehicle that can provide its own position information. Is one preferred over the other, or do they fight over which one reported most recently? Either way, maybe it deserves a mention in the "GPS/GNSS Antenna" section?

There is no priorization on the GPS source other than enabling/disabling the modem GPS. If a vehicle wants to support both car and modem, it shall check config modem/enable.gps (and modem/enable.gpstime) and suppress the car data while the modem is enabled. The vehicle can also require and release the modem GPS dynamically by sending the events * vehicle.require.gps * vehicle.require.gpstime * vehicle.release.gps * vehicle.release.gpstime Regards, Michael -- Michael Balzer * Helkenberger Weg 9 * D-58256 Ennepetal Fon 02333 / 833 5735 * Handy 0176 / 206 989 26
