I wonder if OVMS will be applicabel in the new RAV EV. It has the TESLA drivetrain, so it might be possible!
I can't wait till mine is in!It should be applicable to any car with a CAN bus (i.e.; any modern car). EVs in particular.
There has also been interest in using the platform for other things (such as data logging).
The biggest issue is decoding the CAN bus messages. Without a manual documenting them, it is a challenge. As you say, perhaps the RAV EV would be similar as it shares a lot of the Tesla design.
Since the Roadster will no longer be built, do you think Tesla would be willing to share some documentation or answer questions from you about what messages do what? They probably wouldn't but would make your project easier since they're not willing to do that work.
I doubt it. They might share under NDA, but as we are open source, that is not possible.
At this stage, we understand and have documented 95% of the important messages anyway.
Any plans to implement any of the battery charging features? (i.e. change from standard to range mode)
We want to minimise the impact on the car as much as possible, so for the default end-user firmware we have currently chosen mode 1 (LISTEN). This has almost no possibility of impacting the car - with the worse case being a hardware fault causing a short on the bus - that will stop car systems like VMS working but removing the short immediately resolves the problem. This is the absolute safest way of doing this. We're still discussing this, and nothing is fixed, but that is what we are leaning towards for the short-term.
i am not a developer but I think B or C since the whole point of having the device is to be able to change charging mode and interact with the car.
I'd say A or B.
I'd run with A for now and build up a user base to confirm solid hardware and firmware.
IF it was easily enabled B. Or like I have the developer version C.
so unless the system is extremely buggy I would go with B or C or just wait to release until you have the worst bugs out of the system with the current developer base!
