Venus OS v2.42 released

See here: https://www.victronenergy.com/blog/2019/12/20/venus-os-v2-41-fixing-byd-communications-and-more/

My thanks to all that helped improving v2.40.


in the mean time the developers are working on v2.50; which primarily means tying up any loose ends wrt Cerbo GX, as well as keeping a lookout / looking into bug reports.


Merry Christmas all!

Will v2.5.0 add support for Raspberry Pi 4 hardware?

Hello, I also noticed a bug in the menu, multiplus-advanced-equalization.
The venus hangs on (equalization start) at the second equalization.
Thank you

Hello @Jerry34,

If a BMS is present which dictates the charge voltage the multi won't go to equalization. The gui shouldn't hang in that case, unlike the bug fix for 2.42, navigation should still work etc, but just display Starting equalization forever. Obviously this should be looked at to either hide the option or explain it is not supported. But that will be in a normal release, not a bug fix one.

Unless you really manage to hang the whole device of course. But I think you mean above behavior. Please let me know if that is not the case.

Hello @Jerry34,

Thanks, as already mentioned, it will be looked at and resolved in a normal release. Can you confirm though that only the value "hangs" not the whole venus device as you originally wrote?

I made a issue for it, https://github.com/victronenergy/venus/issues/573 ,is that the same as what you are seeing?

Yes that's fine.
After an equalization I cannot do another one.
The venus remains in the "start equalization" state and once the venus is blocked, the only solution is a manual reset.

Finally, it is impossible to perform two equalizations in a row.
Thanks
