Venus OS v3.60 released officially

Hi!

This list was quite generic, not perse to put you to work on things you don’t have :slight_smile:

In detail

  • canbus: lots of people have it, and use it. So mainly people that have it should report in if there are issues. Usually those are “mppts are missing”, “no bms warnings” and similar.
  • GX GSM: the customers that had IPv6 related issues have meanwhile reported that they are solved now.
  • Revert and boot back: that can’t be taken too lightly; its an idea for some day - there are lots of ways that that can go wrong and its a balance between simple and smart to complex.

Quick question: if I upgrade my production CerboGX MK2 from v3.55 to v3.60~69, is there a risk that I’ll trigger the Wifi bug (and will need to hard power cycle to fix) or has that risk been completely mitigated ?

That bug has been solved a while ago, no worries I’d think

the old Problem still exist. If I enable the GUI V2 on ekrano display, after a few time the Ekrano reboots.

Good evening!

Per just now, v3.60~71 is available for beta testing.

  • Node-RED switch pane settings were fixed, you can now for example configure to have 0 PWMs.
  • Various fixes in the new UI
  • And more small improvements, working towards a fully stable v3.60

Detailed change log will follow later tonight.

All the best, Matthijs

Morning Chief; is it possible to reduce the ruvvi battery low notification to 2.1v instead of 2.3/4, using the ruuvi in a freezer that occasionally keeps the temp at -21 makes the battery volt Drop temporarily that affects the voltage alarm or add an option for us to disable the alarm since it’s just because of the extreme temperature due to refrigeration ? Keep up the good work

In version -69 I realised that the solar chargers no longer communicate with the ekrano when they are connected via VE.direct. I have restarted the Solar Charger in a controlled manner etc. the latest firmware is installed, no communication between ekrano and VE.direct solar charger. The smart shunt, which is connected via VE.direct, works as expected.

after a new manual reboot the solar charger is back online…

Has anyone tried the generator autostart - inverter overload? I think there is some problem with the delay…

In Venus OS v3.60~71:

Toggling Dynamic ESS off in the controls menu,

also disables Dynamic ESS completely on its settings page.

After updating to the latest version v3.60~71, the Smart Shunt, which is connected via VE.direct, was no longer accessible. This time, however, the solar chargers that were connected via VE.direct were still accessible. I had to restart the system repeatedly. Now the systems are also accessible again via VE.direct.

Isn’t that more a VRM issue instead of VenusOS ?

The remote console has the same issue. Toggling ESS → Dynamic ESS → Mode to Off will disable Dynamic ESS completely.
(or is this also related to VRM? Please forgive my noob-ness here.)

In regards to the backup/restore configuration function for multi’s etc and this statement. “And (b) to switch between different configurations.”
Does this mean it might be possible in the future to easily switch between ESS configurations and non-ESS configurations? That would sure be convenient for testing and troubleshooting.

Good evening!

v3.60~72 Is now available for public beta testing.

Fixes the Node-RED issues of the previous beta and a bit more.

Have a good weekend, Matthijs

This is sent by the ruuvi. So ideally the ruuvi guys need to adjust their trigger. Or have a way to differentiate low battery vs false low due to temperature.
(I experience the same issue)
