Hi,

I'm getting 12V battery alerts ala: "MP-0 PAALERT!!! 12V BATTERY CRITICAL (13.2V, ref=14.7V)"

So the 1.5V hardcoded difference between charged and non-charged state seems to be too low. The battery is working just fine and has been tested without any issues, but seems to stabilize at approx. 12.8V.

Is this a global issue; are others experiencing this as well?

If this is a issue only relevant to my car: would it make sense to allow for controlling some of these kind of values through parameters?

BTW, I believe the Think City module could be put in the production builds, it seems to be working fine.

Indeed, which brings me to another issue: we have to add an outside temperature coefficient to the calculation, can probably increase the gap by almost ~0.5V/10C... Rolf On 10/29/2013 09:45 AM, Karl Erik Asbjørnsen wrote:

Just a comment, for the i-Miev we don't have the ambient temperature available. So for now we need a static diff that is grater then 1.5V Regards, Thomas 2013/10/30 Rolf Welde Skeie <rwskeie@gmail.com>

Somehow I feel a few fingers pointing my way.. :) I can have a go, but do not have time until sometime next week.

The algorithm I envision goes something like this:

cold_lim = 10; // celcius that is.. batt_diff = 2; // max difference between charged and non-charged batt_definitely_low = 12; // definite low level limit volts_per_degree = 0.05;

// add cold weather component if (env_temp < cold_lim) { batt_diff += (cold_lim - env_temp)*volts_per_degree; }

if ((batt_now < batt_definitely_low) || ((batt_charged - batt_now) > batt_diff))) { alarm_low(); } else { alarm_cleared(); }

Any thoughts?

Actually we should probably look at the server logs and create some statistics to measured correlated 'batt_now' and 'env_temp' to properly calibrate 'volts_per_degree'. Also look at peak highs and lows to see how the batteries out there are performing :)

The 12V Critical Alert triggers quite often, even if my 12V-battery is new and in top condition. I've measured that the car_12vline reports ~0,5V less than the real battery voltage, so I plan to change the file net.c (line 1458) from:

* // Trigger 12V alert if voltage <= ref - 1.5 V: if (!(can_minSOCnotified & CAN_MINSOC_ALERT_12V) && (car_12vline <= (car_12vline_ref - 15))) { can_minSOCnotified |= CAN_MINSOC_ALERT_12V; net_req_notification(NET_NOTIFY_12VLOW); }*

to:

// Trigger 12V alert if voltage <= ref - 1.5 V: if (!(can_minSOCnotified & CAN_MINSOC_ALERT_12V) && (car_12vline <= (car_12vline_ref - *20*))) { can_minSOCnotified |= CAN_MINSOC_ALERT_12V; net_req_notification(NET_NOTIFY_12VLOW); }

and compile it to a local hex-build and test in on my Think City. Keep you posted about the result.

Testing of false 12V alerts was successfully. No false notifications has arrived from my Think City. The conclusion is that car_doors1bits.CarON and car_doors5bits.Charging12V have to be correctly sett according to the 12V-battery charging state and car-state (in the vehicle-specific file). No changes have to be made at net.c (car_12vline_ref -15). Br. Håkon 2013/11/13 Håkon Markussen <hakon.markussen@gmail.com>

I have now rolled back locally the net.c to «car_12vline_ref - 15» and added car_doors1bits.CarON = 0; car_doors5bits.Charging12V = 0; to vehicle_thinkcity.c when: - discharge is not allowed AND charge is not enabled

In addition to car_doors5bits.Charging12V = 1; when: - charge is enabled - End of Charge is detected AND plug is attached

Some quick tests gives positive result that no 12V Critical Alert is send. I’ll keep you posted.

When setting Notifications (parameter #3) to "IP" or "SMSIP" I finally receive alerts - including Minimum SOC (feature #9) ;)

The 12V Critical Alert triggers quite often, even if my 12V-battery is new and in top condition. I've measured that the car_12vline reports ~0,5V less than the real battery voltage, so I plan to change the file net.c (line 1458) from:

* // Trigger 12V alert if voltage <= ref - 1.5 V: if (!(can_minSOCnotified & CAN_MINSOC_ALERT_12V) && (car_12vline <= (car_12vline_ref - 15))) { can_minSOCnotified |= CAN_MINSOC_ALERT_12V; net_req_notification(NET_NOTIFY_12VLOW); }*

to:

// Trigger 12V alert if voltage <= ref - 1.5 V: if (!(can_minSOCnotified & CAN_MINSOC_ALERT_12V) && (car_12vline <= (car_12vline_ref - *20*))) { can_minSOCnotified |= CAN_MINSOC_ALERT_12V; net_req_notification(NET_NOTIFY_12VLOW); }

and compile it to a local hex-build and test in on my Think City. Keep you posted about the result.

Best regards. Håkon

Can someone try it at 2.0V (rather than 1.5V) and see if it solves the false-alerts problem?

Regards, Mark.

Ok, it seems like a few have similar issues. The logic behind the calculations seems to be reasonable, it is the assumption that there is a 1.5V difference between charging/non-charging state which is not generally applicable. From my observations it seems like increasing this to 2.0V would take care of most mis-firing events.?..

Yup, I also get this message and it would be great if it were working properly, but it actually fires at 13.1V which is far too high.

Can't remember which one made it work, but one of them did, my guess would be #9 :)

Hi,

I'm getting 12V battery alerts ala: "MP-0 PAALERT!!! 12V BATTERY CRITICAL (13.2V, ref=14.7V)"

So the 1.5V hardcoded difference between charged and non-charged state seems to be too low. The battery is working just fine and has been tested without any issues, but seems to stabilize at approx. 12.8V.

Is this a global issue; are others experiencing this as well?

If this is a issue only relevant to my car: would it make sense to allow for controlling some of these kind of values through parameters?

BTW, I believe the Think City module could be put in the production builds, it seems to be working fine.

Håkon, I've merged your latest changes in. Can you PULL, and check all is ok? Regards, Mark. On 14 Nov, 2013, at 4:39 pm, Håkon Markussen <hakon.markussen@gmail.com> wrote:

Testing of false 12V alerts was successfully. No false notifications has arrived from my Think City.

The conclusion is that car_doors1bits.CarON and car_doors5bits.Charging12V have to be correctly sett according to the 12V-battery charging state and car-state (in the vehicle-specific file).

No changes have to be made at net.c (car_12vline_ref -15).

Br. Håkon

2013/11/13 Håkon Markussen <hakon.markussen@gmail.com> I have now rolled back locally the net.c to «car_12vline_ref - 15» and added car_doors1bits.CarON = 0; car_doors5bits.Charging12V = 0; to vehicle_thinkcity.c when: - discharge is not allowed AND charge is not enabled

In addition to car_doors5bits.Charging12V = 1; when: - charge is enabled - End of Charge is detected AND plug is attached

Some quick tests gives positive result that no 12V Critical Alert is send. I’ll keep you posted.
