AFAIU can be mounted also laterally. BTW I do not have direct experience.m.art.y wrote: ↑Sat Nov 05, 2022 10:57 am Hi guys, just wanted to ask if anybody used a Duosida CCS socket with a LIM and got it working? I read through the thread and a lock seems to be a must. By lock is it meant the Type2 socket lock on the top as in the photo? If so it is rather high profile has anybody seen any smaller versions of the lock?

Very easy to get working, all is on the wiki https://openinverter.org/wiki/BMW_I3_Fa ...

there are lower profile locks, like https://zero-ev.co.uk/shop/lockpincp-lo ... desc#attr=

Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller
Or go to a breaker of an ID3 / ID4 that's what i did.
It has the lock lateral...

Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller
For reference, this is what my BMW i3 inlet looks like:
I picked this up from a breaker in Latvia (I think) a few months ago for well under USD$100 including shipping, with about 4' of harness.
It's a Type 1, though. That matches my locale.
Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller
Hello everyone, help to solve the problem. I have a lim 2014 USA.(...646) The welding test passes normally. I see. 272,false,Rx,0,8,33,F3,01,11,FF,FF,FF,FF, Then I connect the connector of the charging station, the LED starts to glow yellow. 3B4,false,Rx,0,8,00,FF,31,F0,BC,FF,00,00. Everything seems to be going well. But only I start seeing this message: 3E9,false,Rx,0,8,08,52,11,00,00,00,00,00Everything stops and the LED starts flashing red. At first I thought I had a port blocking problem. I even wired a separate switch to manually enable the lock. Still nothing happens.

Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller
Did you notice that the proxy has to be connected to pins 2 and 6 on USA models? BTW, US and EU LIMs are the same and can be recoded.

Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller
A question to every one who has a working vehicle with the LIM working, I have yet to get my first project running myself.
What outputs does the LIM generate upon Plug Insertion to allow the rest of the vehicle to wake up? I have yet to figure out if the LIM signals can be used to wake up the various required other items in a vehicle to allow starting charge from a "Ignition Off" situation.

Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller
I paid attention to it. I bought the lim together with wires and a conectors. Do I need to put an additional jumper between 2 and 6? Because now there is no connection.muehlpower wrote: ↑Tue Nov 08, 2022 12:19 pm Did you notice that the proxy has to be connected to pins 2 and 6 on USA models?

Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller
As I said, on EU models, pin 6 remains open and proxi is connected to pin 2, on US models proxi is connected to both, pin 2 "and" 6.

If your LIM was sourced from a US-coded vechicle, very probably you will need to jumper 2B-2 to 2B-6.
Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller
Hello. Is there an error in the voltage meter circuit? By connecting the polarity of the power supply TLV 6001 ?

Please do this if you need help, you are saying you get to a certain point in the sequence so there will be clues.

Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller
There are different types of TLV6001. With the "R" version, pin 5 = V-, pin 2 = V+. Without "R" it's the other way around. With the "U" version, the inputs and outputs are different.

Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller
For now, I took a break, remaking my Arduino controller. At stm 32. When I'm ready, I'll definitely show my capture . I'm learning now cubeIDE .

Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller
Bit of a generic overall question regarding Voltage and Current deviation.
With CHAdeMO it is up to the car (controller) to measure and manage this.
In the LIM .dbc I found DCFC_V_Diff and DCFC_I_Diff
So my question is, is Voltage and Current deviation management also needed for CCS?
And if yes? Should the LIM do that? And if yes, how?

Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller
I'm very sorry I'm advance as I'm sure this has been asked. But although i searched and red the wiki page i couldn't find the answer:
If I use an onboard AC charger that wants the CP and PP contacts, too, can i just connect them parallel to the LIM?
One this is clarified I'd like to add this information to the wiki page.
Thanks so much

Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller
It's already in there
Under AC charging (on board charger control)It is not possible to have two car-side charge controllers connected to the pilot line simultaneously. It is recommended to control the charger by CAN bus. If your charger needs the pilot signal, you will have to emulate it or switch the pilot connection wiring over to the active charger during AC charging.

Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller
If I decide to switch CC and CP signal with a relay, what would be the indicator for the relay to know if it's open or closed. Which signal can i use to recognize if a Type2 or CCS plug is plugged in?

Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller
Perhaps there are other ways too, but I'd look at CAN message 0x3B4 from the LIM and within that at the Pilot_Status.
As soon as that becomes 0x01 AC not Ready or 0x02 AC Ready you know the LIM has detected a PWM signal at the CP line that corresponds with AC charging.
