Hello All. I thought I’d start a new thread to share some of my experiences building an OpenEVSE +WiFi. This is not my first EVSE build. I have a ‘old’ OpenEVSE I’ve used to charge every day at work for several years now. Its been extremely reliable (apart from one minor issue of water ingress via …

Also I’ve noticed that the webUI is now remember settings such as ‘Energy Limit’. It also correctly reports the values in a browser on a different device. :slight_smile:

Hi @sean_fosberry Thanks a lot for testing. [image] sean_fosberry: None of the information on Firmware of the OpenEVSE or the WiFi module is reported : I think this will work after the OpenEVSE controller is rebooted. [image] sean_fosberry: For the ‘services’ page, its not clear what i…

Almost always when you get missing values it is because the /config and/or /status endpoint are returning invalid JSON, which in turn is almost always because the serial comms between the WiFi module and OpenEVSE have got out of sync. There is still some work to do to make the comms more robust. If…

By reboot, do you just mean turn the open EVSE off and on again? Or on the board?

“The first UI box should show all the current session charging options as well as icons being displayed on the LCD to indicate charge timer / energy limit.” Can you post a screenshot of what you mean? Thanks,

By reboot, do you just mean turn the open EVSE off and on again? Or on the board? Yeah, just turning the OpenEVSE on and off will do it, or there is a restart button in the WiFi UI, on the System tab.

So from a fresh power up : [image] [image] http://openevse.local/config : {“firmware”:“3.11.3”,“protocol”:“1.0.3”,“espflash”:4194304,“version”:“2.3.0”,“diodet”:0,“gfcit”:0,“groundt”:0,“relayt”:0,“ventt”:0,“tempt”:0,“service”:2,“scale”:220,“offset”:0,“gfcicount”:fe,“nogndcount”:2,“stuckcount”:0,…

[image] sean_fosberry: “gfcicount”:fe That is the problem, I think I need some hex to decimal conversions on the error counters.

I can see the firmware info in there too. Can you see why its not being displayed? Do you see it in your build?

Also is there any notes / documentation on how I configure the MQTT for the solar divert?
