Description

This project embeds the Chargery BMS to a Victron Energy Venus OS device to monitor the battery. The serial driver is coded in Python and grabs the data form the RS232 USB interface every second. Example Images:

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

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)
