Re: Tool to manage openinverter via CAN

now i have a bad conscience that i asked. I also spent the day yesterday trying. I also found out about the path and it worked. But I failed with the CAN adapter. I am not a computer specialist and I have no idea about linux. I ordered a new wifi CAN module from Johu after I killed mine. Hopefully ...

I don't know where it was installed, how to find it, nor how to specify or change a path. I am using Windows 10 and python 3.13.3

Re: Tool to manage openinverter via CAN

I still haven't managed to get this tool to work. What am I doing wrong? I have installed python. When I enter 'Python' in the comandline something happens. When I enter 'pip' I get a help text. When I type 'pip install openinverter_can_tool' something seems to be installed. And now? If I enter 'oic ...

Is there a reliable way to transfer parameters to the foccci board without a “web” interface? Maybe with ST-Link?

I have saved an early board from uhi22, version 2023-08-17. The web interface shows a firmware 0.21B. I think this is not the current version ;) What is the latest version, does it run on this board, where do I get it from, and how do I get it onto the board?

Re: 56 Chevy Nomad hotrod

Is there something new, or have we spoiled you? You've done a good job on the Nomad. Is your project going to be based on the Nomad or the C6? Or something of your own? Your initial description was a bit overwhelming and didn't seem to me to be the final concept.

Re: [WIP] Caterham Seven - Putting the EV in sEVen

Since only a maximum of 22kW is required for AC charging, the DC2DC converter is far from its maximum. The description states ”
Voltage range for full performance highside 450-850 V”, from which I conclude that lower voltages also work, only with limited power. You probably wouldn't even need to ...

Re: [WIP] Caterham Seven - Putting the EV in sEVen

Can this DC2DC converter also be used as an OBC, perhaps with an additional rectifier? Then the additional weight for the charger can be saved

Re: Sound generator possibilities of implementation

I have installed this system. The engine sound is generated by the Audi control unit (black box), which also contains the amplifier. The blue Kufatec box controls the Audi box and needs two CAN bus signals, one for engine speed, one for load. I have programmed the gearbox simulation on an AVR ...

Do you just replay fix rpm sound or does it change depending on speed?

If the question is addressed to me. The frequency changes with the calculated speed, the sound is load-dependent (accelerator pedal position) It shifts 4 gears, the shift points vary with the accelerator pedal position ...

I have integrated audi exhaust loudspeakers. There it is called “active silence”. As my car is old (1950) and I want to preserve the character of the car, I simulate the sound of the combustion engine including the automatic gearbox. This is not a legal problem as long as it is not louder than the ...

Re: PTC cabin heater 155x50x230


All depends on your full setup, the biggest issue is any voltage spikes


I don't know which aspect of my setup is crucial. I only have one HV circle. This means that if the contactors are closed after pre-charging, everything is energized and then the heater can also heat up. Do the capacitors ...
