You can draw power from a vehicle that is equipped with Foccci (video coming)

Re: Foccci wakeup/sleep discussions

The EVSE should shut down CP (or make it 12V) when setting current limits below 6A. Or and least when sending an explicit stop command. In that case you'd omit PP wakeup. CP wakeup is always active. So basically go with the 3rd approach from here https://openinverter.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=69417#...

Also verify that you get equal torque response in forward and reverse. That kind of indicates a correct syncofs

Yes most likely connection problem. Resolver, current sensors or PWM channels. A web UI screenshot in failed state would help

Or cut a deal with Jacob, he's getting some made :) (if we only knew where he's from - please share your location ;) )

EDIT: but yes if you buy 6 or more from the shop you can get a discount, too since you'd still be the first to buy that quantity

CanWatchdog is reset automatically when a new ChargeCurrent is received via CAN. Of course provided you are using a recent version.

Re: Going from 4WD to 2WD with the touch of a button, what is the correct approach

The 2WD version of the the vehicle is always more efficient than the 4WD. Partly explained by the weight difference but not just that. Also most 4WD vehicles use a PM motor in the rear and async motor in front. It only steps into action on high torque requests. For fine grained control I'd suggest a...

Re: [WIP] BMW Z3

When we want to run it at circa 400v and with a more common ratio of around the 3.6:1 both of those factors have a large effect on the motors top speed. Motor top speed is not limited by voltage. Peak power CAN be limited by voltage given it's not limited by inverter or motor anyway. Field weakenin...

Re info from PM: You have fixed the motor case grounding which is good but it seems power supply to the inverter is not stable. How much current does your contactor consume? 5.32.R gives the BrakeCheck status because cruisemode != Off so it wants to see the brake pedal once at startup. After that yo...
