Connecting LeafSpy to ABRP

Question

I'm new to ABRP. I see it can connect to LeafSpy and read my charge state. It sounds like this requires some server settings that I need to put into LeafSpy. However, I can't find these anywhere - there is no documentation of this function's details. It's not in these forums. I've emailed ABRP support and not received any response.

Is there anyone who is successfully using this with LeafSpy and can help me, please?

I was really sad to see that my question didn't get any traction on these forums. After a 12-day delay I received a response from the ABRP team, who explained that the Leafspy connection settings are visible once you add a custom car. It wasn't clear to me a) that I needed to add a custom car, since I could select my Leaf model from the standard dropdown, and b) that this is where the Leafspy settings live - this isn't specifically documented anywhere. So, if you've come to the forum looking for help with this, please add a custom car.

I see this is quite an old forum but hopefully this will get answered.

Do we need to add a server in Leafspy?

In Abrp if I click live data setting it just provides links to the leafspy software on the play store or an obd dongle on amazon. It doesn't explain about the leafspy settings needed.

Thanks.

Hi JBob. Yes, you need to add a server in Leafspy.

I no longer use ABRP regularly because it had a tendency to drop GPS a minute after starting my route on an Android phone, but I have pulled ABRP up on my iPhone now and I can see:

  • Tap the car name underneath the route options on the main screen
  • Tap Live Data
  • Scroll down to "show live data instructions" (the last item)
  • Tap Link LeafSpy
  • Tap Next
  • Receive the instructions on what to select in the Server settings in LeafSpy - includes ID and URL
  • Put these in LeafSpy

Then remember to launch LeafSpy before starting a route with ABRP. Should work well.

Thanks for that.

I realised that with the resolution of my tablet it wasn't obvious I had to scroll down to see a next button on the leafspy setup instructions in abrp. There is a huge gap between the text and the next button at the bottom which could be reduced to fit all screen resolutions on different devices?

Anyway now setup successfully thanks.

It still seems the same on my Galaxy S8+. The attached screenshots are the stages in order. The third one after a scroll up.
