Reviewed definition of ITIDs 0xF899 Energy Storage System Depth of Discharge Counter (Lifetime) and 0xF89A Energy Storage System Tracking Tables.

Detail DID Data Size (byte) Scenario 1 Scenario 2 Scenario 3 Scenario 4 Scenario 5 Scenario 6 Scenario 7
Max value for ITID 0xF899, data A-P 2 65535 65535 65535 65535 65535 65535 65535

  • Questions:

    • Does the ST display 0xF899 data A,B etc. as a straight conversion (y=x)?
    • Does the ST display 0xF899 data divided by 0xF89A?
    • Does the ST display the “range” data provided by 0xF89A as a static value?
  • Specific comments to J1979DA:

    • Cell C634 text shown in the cell should be bold text.
    • Cell C643 text shown in the cell should be bold text.
    • Cells C644 thru C651 - what is “R” in “RESS*” when the description is Energy Storage. Should this text string start with “ESS*”?
    • Cells C644 thru C651 - what is “L” in “*L:”? If this is for “length”? Is this character needed?
    • Cells C644 thru C651 - the format shown is XXXXXXXXXX cnts, or 10 places. The max data size is 5 places (65535). Maybe there is a reason for the 10 places? Seems like the format should indicate 5 places.
    • Cells E644 thru E651 - The recommended display strings are super long. The following table is offered for consideration:
From: To:
RESS_CNTS_DOD_RNG1-L: XXXXXXXXXX cnts ESS_DOD_RNG1: XXXXXXXXXX cnts
RESS_CNTS_DOD_RNG12-L: XXXXXXXXXX cnts ESS_DOD_RNG1-2: XXXXXXXXXX cnts
RESS_CNTS_DOD_RNG23-L: XXXXXXXXXX cnts ESS_DOD_RNG2-3: XXXXXXXXXX cnts
RESS_CNTS_DOD_RNG34-L: XXXXXXXXXX cnts ESS_DOD_RNG3-4: XXXXXXXXXX cnts
RESS_CNTS_DOD_RNG45-L: XXXXXXXXXX cnts ESS_DOD_RNG4-5: XXXXXXXXXX cnts
RESS_CNTS_DOD_RNG56-L: XXXXXXXXXX cnts ESS_DOD_RNG5-6: XXXXXXXXXX cnts
RESS_CNTS_DOD_RNG67-L: XXXXXXXXXX cnts ESS_DOD_RNG6-7: XXXXXXXXXX cnts
RESS_CNTS_DOD_RNG7-L: XXXXXXXXXX cnts ESS_DOD_RNG7: XXXXXXXXXX cnts
