green light Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 (edited) When (re)loading a stored plan, having start charge set to 100%, after planning start charge is listed as current charge. Due to that additional chargers are added. Same occures, without a stored plan, so just planning from a certain address to somewhere with a start charge set, still the current charge is used. First use case occures when reopening web browser after a charge (or due to other browser problems). Edited May 19, 2019 by green light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green light Posted May 19, 2019 Author Share Posted May 19, 2019 (edited) This does not happen every time just in special conditions if you used the "replan" button and then try to return to the saved plan (because the replan button did this "point on map" thing is wrote in support forum. So in short: Load a plan, all fine. Drive. Fine. Replan, first problem with this "point on map". Load plan again, start charge field is ignored.

green light Posted May 21, 2019 Author Share Posted May 21, 2019 I did some additional investigations on this. Finally I found 3 issues that look wrong to me, all belong to the "replan" button: (1) Issue 1: We have a plan like this: (A) Start (B) Charger 1 (C) Destination If you push "replan" after you left "charger 1", plan looks like this: (A) Point on map (B) Charger 1 (C) Destination The routing will route you back to "charger 1". Another plan: (A) Start (B) Charger 1 (C) Charger 2 (D) Destionation If you use "replan" after charger 2, plan will become this: (A) Point on map (B) Charger 2 (C) Destination So charger 1 is removed, but again this will route you back to the last visited charger. (2) Issue 2: If you used the "replan" button, the "start charge" field is completely ignored until web page is reloaded. (first post of this thread) Use case: After I got this wired replan I loaded the saved plan of the trip. But as start charge (which was set to 100% in the input field) the current charge was used. Due to this additional chargers were added. (3) Issue 3: As I understand the "replan" button, one should be able to refresh the route if you drive another way than planned (due to traffic) or have left the charger with another charge than planned. But when you leave the planned route, the graph and detail view is hidden and so the "replan" button. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green light Posted June 21, 2019 Author Share Posted June 21, 2019 I'm not sure if I misunderstand the usage of "replan" button. Just had issue 1 and 2. Nobody else has this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bo-ABRP Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Excellent bug report, thank you for taking the time to specify this so well! I have just fixed issues 1&2. I think your issues with 3 may be that you are planning from a fixed address; the "Replan?" button will only appear if you are planning from "My Position" (which is kind of what makes sense). If you plan from "My Position" you will get a dialog "You have left the route - replan?" and also the "Replan" button will appear if your actual SoC is more than 2% (SoC) away from the planned SoC. Let me know how that works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green light Posted June 24, 2019 Author Share Posted June 24, 2019 Thanks Bo. You are right, most time I plan long trips with a fixed start address (eg. home). So when I have to leaf highway for some reason I had no chance to update my trip with that setup. But without that fixed address planning might add additional chargers or estimate other charge levels. Is there any reason for this behaviour to use "my position"?

green light Posted June 24, 2019 Author Share Posted June 24, 2019 (edited) Well, well... Looks like issue 1 and 2 are fixed but have another problem now, sorry: If I push the "replan" the route is correct now. But the current charge is not taken but the start charge (so 100%). So the fix of issue 2 dropped the use of current charge value for replanning? If I manually push "use live data" of the settings, all is fine as expected. I see now, replan is a really complex thing. Other note: "You have left the route - replan?" dialog came! Even without "my position". Edited June 24, 2019 by green light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bo-ABRP Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Yeah, it is kind of complex to get it to work intuitively for all use cases. When you plan from a fixed address, ABRP will assume that you may not at all be where your plan is, and therefore not bug you with questions about leaving the route. If you have car telemetry, such as MyTesla, then leaving the Initial Charge empty means it will be taken from the car at all times, including after replanning. Does it not work like that for you now?

logic Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 If i don't have live data, can the replan function use the expected (or reported via drive mode) battery level at the point the route was left? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bo-ABRP Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Since you don't have live data, you will see a battery icon showing the estimated SoC while driving. If you verify this by clicking in the middle of it (or adjusting it up and down), ABRP will assume this is up-to-date and will use it as initial SoC for the replan.

Bill N Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 This is all kinda not that intuitive - perhaps a bit of a basic user guide would be good? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueBolt Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 A basic guide explaining what the setup entry blocks titles mean and what is expected to be entered would make me far less frustrated. Then I can get on to actually trying to figure out how to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueBolt Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Never mind. I figured it out. It does give a explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
