Re: EMUS BMS <=> zombieverter

I understand the dilemma: on one hand you want an active community contributing to a project, on the other hand you want the project to be ultra stable, because mistakes might cause serious injuries.

Two things might be worth considering: 1. should not the whole project be covered with unit tests ...

Re: EMUS BMS <=> zombieverter

Simplification indeed, but some other reasons might be: maybe the SoC calculation of EMUS is more reliable, it can send individual cell temperatures and voltages to zombie (like simpBMS does), zombie can control the charging process together with the BMS thus making it more safe. Also in case of BMS ...

EMUS BMS <=> zombieverter

I’m doing a conversion which has the SDU, Tesla batteries, Tesla gen2 OI charger and the EMUS BMS.

I’m thinking about adding the EMUS as an option to the BMS already supported by zombie. This would then make the EMUS replace the ISA shunt (it puts voltage and current on the CAN bus) and control ...

Re: Zombieverter and Tesla SDU Openinverter

Hi all,

How does Zombieverter, in combination with SDU (or LDU), handle the overcurrent event when it is not aware of the tripmode (=1) setting of the OI board in the DU?

Does it just not open the contactors while in drive mode? Or...

I just want to know for sure before deciding that combination ...
