Venus OS v3.60~60 available for public testing

[mpvader (Matthijs Vader)]

Good day, per just now a new version is available for public testing, v3.60~47.

It includes quite a nice improvement for Dynamic ESS, addressing various of the now and then unexpected behaviours of it.

And some further changes, see above for the details.

Have a good weekend!

v3.60~47
Dynamic ESS

• Improve how Dynamic ESS reacts when actual consumption or solar production differs from forecasted. For example when there is more solar then expected, the updated algorithm will in many cases use that extra solar power to charge the battery, even if that would exceed the planned SOC level for the current hour. Instead of feeding that excess solar back into the grid for a low price, to later have to buy it back at a higher price.

Thats a nice improvement. I’m running in green mode and this works really nice!

Good day, per just now we’ve made beta version Venus OS v3.60~49 available for public testing. See change log above.

Good day! we now have v3.60~53 available as a beta version - which fixes the wifi problems on the Cerbo GX MK2 as well as the Node-RED dashboard issues.

UPDATE: this wifi bug has meanwhile been solved. In v3.60~59 or thereabouts.

ps. for Cerbo MK2s where the wifi no longer works, these are the steps to make it work again:

1. update it to v3.60~53 or later. Using and sdcard, usb stick or by connecting an ethernet cable.

2. power cycle it to make it work again. Just resetting/restarting is not enough.
