[Electric Boats] Re: Marine MFD that can read electric motor controllers

 

This is a fascinating development having a NMEA2k option for Victron devices and systems. I read the manual and see that the Ah value isn't anything that most MFDs care about or understand. I haven't read the MFD manuals but wanted to know if you can parse and present data from proprietary PDUs to present onscreen?
I see that battery SoC and TTG (time to go) are reported in standard N2k format. How does the MFD present this data to you?

It looks like we could use a dual channel CANbus interface on Raspberry Pi to poll Sevcon and then repackage the information in NMEA2k to look like a normal engine burning MPGs or GPHs, so the MFD can estimate range.
