Re: Use ESP32 Web interface also as GVRET CAN device?

Sorry @uhi22, but I have spent days trying to get this running. I am not at ease with all this coding....after numerous de-installing all Arduino files, I "sort of" managed to create a sketch. Now I have spent te last few hours trying to fix all the error messages Any ideas where I am goin...

Almost there.
I don't see the reason for:

Re: Use ESP32 Web interface also as GVRET CAN device?

"At the moment, I use two ESP32, one for the esp32-web-interface, and one as interface for SavvyCAN (https://github.com/uhi22/wifican). Both of these have CAN on the one side and Wifi on the other side, so basically this is topic to optimize both into one project" @uhi22, are you using Ard...

Re: Use ESP32 Web interface also as GVRET CAN device?

For info, I bought an ESP32-S3 wroom and will attempt your setup. I (think) I have setup my Nucleo board to send a message in loopback. Plan now is to copy your .io file using Arduino to ESP32. What I understand is that once that is done, I can connect it via Savvycan and 'listen' to CAN bus . Then ...

Re: Setting Up CAN reader - STM32 Nucleo board

I found a link that allows for STM32 to be used in ArduinoIDE. I downloaded the ArduinoIDE and STM programmer. I tried the Blinkexample, but after starting the debug, I get errors Now I have a basic CAN example from STM Community which I managed to download. Next step is to test if it is reading any...

Re: Setting Up CAN reader - STM32 Nucleo board

If I were to carry out the set-up I found and connected it to a CAN network (contact relay control unit or instrument cluster) should I not be able to read a CAN message at least on the STM board? https://controllerstech.com/can-protocol-in-stm32/ If this is confirmed, I would have thought porting A...

Re: Setting Up CAN reader - STM32 Nucleo board

Yes, it seems later DEV boards have examples ready for applications. My board has CAN pinouts and thought it would be an easy fix to convert. I read that most STM ARM MCU are the same and libraries can be used from one to the other with 'slight' modifications, but I'm no code developer, so might hav...

Setting Up CAN reader - STM32 Nucleo board

After many moocs on CAN protocol setting up, and reading up the well documented Wiki regarding setting up CAN reader with Arduino-Due, I have to ask if there are any solutions to transport the project to a STM32 board.

Re: 1984 Voltswagen Rabbit Prius Gen 3

I got a universal kit and adjusted them once fitted. The main issue to avoid is the travel when they are at their lowest point, ie, wheels lifted off the ground. The driveshafts need to clear the chassis.

The opening up of the locking mechanism was a great help in understanding PP and CP resistance. Will get a multimeter out on the back of the plug then to confirm

After much thought, I put in my vote. Whilst I have a similar project 'sitting here ' running a locked up Prius Gen 2, I could vote for that and hope it helps me get a move on ... However, I feel the setup could be easier if a motor is mounted to the original gearbox....like a Smart. The low châssis...

Depends, the 'battery' is a glorified accumulator. It stores energy quickly and uses it up just as fast. Voltage before Inverter, as in battery pack voltage is around 200vdc. The inverter buck/boost controls voltage in and out if it, from what I worked out. Damien made a video showing the voltage af...
