Reprogrammed slaves for temp Analog mode
Still tinkering, just finished temp Analog Master, and now fiddling with meter and led/switches which have to fit into the centre console cubby hole at front alongside MIMA display. It's the asthetic things that take the time
Getting it looking reasonable is sometimes the greater challenge.
I'm leaving the screen and digital master gubbins/cabling installed as I can work on that then alongside the up and runing analog temp system hopefully in few days. Now hoping to get it installed/running tomorrow minus voltmeter which is on order.
The analog Master gives reduced functionality, but still covers the vitals.
Over Cell V audible Alarm when ignition on. (For driving regen)
Over Cell V visual Alarm at all times.
Over Cell V isolated charger cutback. (For controlling mains charger)
Under Cell V audible Alarm at all times.
Under Cell V audible Alarm at all times.
Temp is covered by normal IMA temp sensors when running and I have a simple digital gauge I may rig up as a temp measure.
Digital 0-199.9V meter also fitted running all time.
Digital Slaves (Analog mode) Test button propagates a low V alarm through the 50 slaves and activates low V alarm. If any of the 50 Slaves is off line/stuck/locked up etc signal won't make it to the last slave and therefore no Alarm will sound. Just press the button when you get in car to check they are on line, takes approx 500ms to respond.
I found some nice accesible power at the BCM plug on top of the battery pack. I need ground, +12V live at all times & +12V ignition switched. The analog Master is pretty well isolated but I have added some filtering on this supply to hopefully prevent any problems.
