Roadster Charge Monitor V 0.3
The first version was discussed here:
iPhone app
But as i created a new version, and rewrote it in C (by popular demand :wink, i thought it should have it's own thread.
What is it?
The Roadster Charge monitor is a DIY hardware/software project, which will send status messages from your car.
If a charge is interrupted or if your car is fully charged you will receive a SMS message instantly.
You can request the current SOC (state of charge), Ideal Range and charge mode, by calling the unit's phone number or sending a command.
The following SMS commands are accepted by the unit:
STAT <password>, send SMS message about charge status; same as dialing RCM with registered phone.
GPS <password>, send google maps map with location of roadster.
REGISTER <password>, register phone number as owner.
PASS <new password>, change password (only works for registered phone)
Password is mandatory for unregistered phones, not needed for registered phone.
default password is "roadster". passwords/commands are not case sensitive.
The project can be downloaded here
Thanks go out to Scott451 for figuring out many of the Roadster CAN bus messages used by the RCM, and the pinout of the CAN bus socket in the Roadster.
