Driver v1.3.20240705 GUI_PARAMETERS_SHOW_ADDITIONAL_INFO doesn't work

[tlamoureux24]

Describe the bug

Activate the parameter in config.ini change nothing in GUI, no details in GUI -> Serialbattery -> Parameters
Activate the parameter in config.ini result in no charge mode and no CVL in driver

How to reproduce

Add GUI_PARAMETERS_SHOW_ADDITIONAL_INFO = True in config.ini and restart driver

Expected behavior

Expect details in driver parameters
Expect charge mode
Expect CVL

Driver version of the currently installed driver

v1.3.20240705

Driver version of the last known working driver

No response

Venus OS device type

Cerbo GX

Venus OS version

3.33

BMS type

JKBMS Inverter

Cell count

16

Battery count

1

Connection type

Serial USB adapter to RS485

Config file

[DEFAULT]

; If you want to add custom values/settings, then check the values/settings you want to change in "config.default.ini"
; and insert them below to persist future driver updates.

; Example (remove the semicolon ";" to uncomment and activate the value/setting):

MAX_BATTERY_CHARGE_CURRENT = 30.0
MAX_BATTERY_DISCHARGE_CURRENT = 50.0


BMS_TYPE = Jkbms_pb

GUI_PARAMETERS_SHOW_ADDITIONAL_INFO = True

Any other information that may be helpful

Generate a low battery alam even if driver seems to work properly
All solved by commenting GUI_PARAMETERS_SHOW_ADDITIONAL_INFO = True in config.ini and restart driver

Thanks for reporting. Could you please install the latest nightly and check the logs? I added some troubleshooting for that.

cerbo gx alarm internal calc error

No parameter's detail in venus

Let me know if you need more information

[mr-manuel]

Can you please install the same version again? I updated the code.

[tlamoureux24]

Same as above only the battery.py error line change.

[mr-manuel]

Unfortunately I'm not able to reproduce this issue, therefore we have to continue like this. Can you reinstall again? Should now be good :)

[tlamoureux24]

I can confirm, now all good and got parameters detail !!!
Thanks for the support :)

[mr-manuel]

Thank you for providing all the data I needed!

[tlamoureux24]

My pleasure, if you need a beta tester i can do test for you !
