Re: LTC6802 based 12 cell slave.

Some of you may recall a while back I proposed a central point for all files related to this bms project. I had opened an account with launchpad.net but never really got my head 'round it. I'm sure it's fine for programmers, but for the rest of us something simpler is needed. The forum is very simple, but then you have to go trawling through it to find the files you need. So I am trying a new site, github.com. I've made a start with an account and have uploaded my current slave software in the master branch and a testing branch where I am working on a new command "200" that is a simple "tell me the cell voltages". Currently you have to send command $04 to initialize the 6802 and then a $10 to read the cell voltages. A slave that recieves command "200" will first send $04 to the next slave and then $10. This makes the master software a bit simpler. The first slave becames a sort of sudo master, but all slaves have the same software.
The code is here, https://github.com/Greg-Fordyce/evBMS. You don't need an account to view and download files, but it is quite simple to setup one and install the software for the full git experience.
