# Requirements
- Chargery BMS
- Venus OS device
- FTDI Adapter FT232RL USB TTL Serial (IMPORTANT: Must be flashed with FT_PROG software to invert tx mode)
- ...
# Installation
- TBD
# Notes
- Proof-of-Concept style
- Only the Chargery BMS16T is currently supported. However the sources can very easily be changed to support BMS8T and BMS24T as well.
- No multiple languages
- No scripts to resetup the changes automatically on update of Venus OS
- The devices are "hard-coded" at the qml files, must be adapted (VE.direct devices, etc)
