There is Users Guide has also been revised: https://github.com/AlternatorRegulator/alt-Documentation
v1.1.0 of the firmware contains one very significant change, the units used to represent temperatures. The have been changed from degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius. This change was made to better align with worldwide temperature units, and in preparation for a potential configuration application which would support devices beyond the Alternator Regulator.
A side effect of this update is any existing configuration changes made via ASCII commands will need to be reissued as when upgrading to version 1.1.0 of the firmware all configurations will be set to the default state.
There are several other changes in this firmware, including:
- Addition of a Tach-mode override to the $SCT: command
- Bug fix with CAN Terminal mode (ASCII wrapper)
- Better support of small alternators with large battery banks
- Potential solution to dual-alternator self-balancing capability.
For those interested in the details, the GitHub repository will show all changes.
Note that some of the supporting libraries have changed as well, please make sure to download new copies of: RVCMessges.cpp and RVCMessages.h as well as the avr_can.cpp files.
