This release ships a breaking change because the (flaky) auto-detection of the protocol version was removed. You have to choose the appropriate in future. The protocol version JK02 was renamed to JK02_24S to force all users to update and double check their YAML configurations. Rule of thumb: If your power_tube_temperature sensor works fine and shows a reasonable measurement you are using the correct protocol version.
Some more improvements since version 1.5.0:
- UART-TTL: Improved preamble synchronization. This should reduce the amount of CRC errors every now and then (#340)
- UART-TTL: Command support added. The
charging,dischargingandbalancingswitch can be controlled using the UART connection now! Kudos to @jrventer (#343) - BLE: During OTA updates the BLE connection gets suspended now. Kudos to @tomatensaus (#417)
- BLE: BLE discovery improved because the advertised BLE name of a JK-BMS has changed slighty (#423)
- BLE: Some new feature of the JK-PBs series were added: Switch entities (
heating,disable_temperature_sensors,display_always_on,smart_sleep,timed_stored_data,disable_pcl_module,charging_float_mode) (#424) - BLE: The implementation of the emergency feature (
emergency time countdownsensor andemergencyswitch) is complete now (#428) - BLE: Some new settings (
port switchanddevice address) gets printed to the log (#431) (#432) - BLE: The implementation of the heating feature (
heatingstatus,heating currentandheatingswitch) is complete now. Kudos to @RFDarter (#436)
