2022.19.03 Software Update Released! -- Preconditioning, 12v Battery Drain Fix, Soft Sand Mode + More

[SeaGeo]

Yeah, I thought EA was already added in v15, right?

EA was added before V15 IIRC. EV Connect is one I hadn't remembered seeing. In any case, there are now 6, including Rivian chargers. Of which there are currently zero. lol.

They do, however, need to add the station status data feed for EA though.

Correct. They also need to recognize that EA has 350kw chargers. I'm assuming the former is intentional due to a lack of partnership or something, and the latter is a bug. Or intentional because EA has the ABB issue in some regions. It's unclear to me, but it will probably limit the preconditioning effectiveness if you plug into a signet 350kw charger.

Those could actually be related, the data feed may be what contains that accurate data regarding charging speeds available.

It's also possible that preconditioning logic isn't significantly affected between 150kw and 200kw, but that's not my area of expertise. They may only have two classes of programs, 150+ and <100 (nothing in between actually exists I don't believe).

Rivian chargers actually do show up in the screen, and they are the diamond shape instead of circles, but they are only level 2. Yosemite has 4 of them.

Interesting. I tried looking down around there and they didn't show up. I must not have zoomed in far enough.

Regardless, not sure why it really matters as long as the job is done

I suspect a lot of things come in to play. Mostly the current temp of the battery. It's a a lot of mass to heat up. If you're just startig the truck it'll probably take quite a while, but if you're on charging stop 3 it may not take much time at all.

Although sand feature is cool and I'll have to try it. I was so looking forward to the Vent control modification as my wife hates the vents blowing on her so she turns it off and of course so does the Auto function, Then she gets up set because it gets to warm not realizing she's causing it. so annoying. now Auto stays on. so excited for such a little change,

Its the little things that matter

Your wife and my wife sound suspiciously similar

You small thing I noticed on this picture and also with my R1T is that the tonneau cover is closed vs the previous software it displayed it open...just a FYI

Have not tested to see if the image changes once the cover is open though

It does change... actually has "stages" of opening and closing if i remember.

Here you go Buddy

Does preconditioning normally take 75 minutes? It's 73°F out and we're cruising at 70mph. ?

I don't have a truck yet, but our Model Y used to precondition WAY too early, resulting in crazy high consumption. Would start 100+ miles out from the charger and our wh/m basically doubling, which would then start dropping our estimated rate on arrival. It was a total shit show that required us to navigate near the charger instead of to it, just to reach it. They eventually patched the issue, but it was like that for months.

Update just became available to me today. Gonna wait until tonight to install it. I wish there was a way to initiate the download but not start the update. That way I could just download it now and then apply it later when I have time to observe.

It should do this automatically in the truck, that's what mine did anyway.
