As you said, those controllers really want to see a variable voltage 0-5V (well, somewhere within that range like 1-4v) instead of being canbus controlled. The GEVCU hardware is capable of doing PWM output on the digital output pins. This PWM signal could be turned into a more or less steady state analog signal via resistors and capacitors. The values would likely have to be tweaked to make things stable. Really nobody has tried to do this yet. We've mostly been focused on trying to support the higher end OEM controllers we've been getting out of bankrupt companies and salvage. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
