Because I was using Go-E and Alfen with 1/3 phase switch for the last two years, I've abandoned my two trusty DIY SimpleEVSE based chargers, but someone sent me a link with an
openWB series2 standard+ without charging cable on the local eBay.
After contacting the seller, I've made a quick switch: my working DIY SimpleEVSE based charger for
OpenWB.
The seller was the last one in a long series of frustrated owners/sellers and it just wanted something to charge his Mini plugin-hybrid.
He also bought the OpenWB from the local Ebay; without a cable = it felt it was a scam

So, because I'm curious, I wanted ssh access and WLAN, so here I am!
It was a hustle to access the rpi on ssh, make the "latest" update and activate WIFi.
Also, the original MicroSD Xioxia card is
blue, not Xioxia high endurance that is
GREEN.
I've made a backup image of the microSD card with
Win32DiskImager.
Always make a backup, kids!
So, I've used another computer (MacOS with ExtFS) in order to access and edit the file
/etc/shadow and change the password for user pi.
The password is hash, so you must generate a new hash!
Alfter I had SSH access, I've tried to update the ancient OS, but things changed in the "last few thousand IT years", and I needed to change /etc/apt/sources.list
Now It must contain just:
Code: Alles auswählen
deb http://legacy.raspbian.org/raspbian/ stretch main contrib non-free rpi
After that, just run this and wait for 20 minutes.
Restart with:
For the WIFI part it was NOT funny, as I did not understand why it did not work after creating the wpa_supplicant.conf file!
So...
1. Create the wpa_supplicant.conf file with the WIFI network information.
add this (with your Wlan info - name and pass)
Code: Alles auswählen
country=DE
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1
network={
ssid="NAME"
psk="PASSWD"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}
2. For the wpa_supplicantto work, I had to edit and the comment # the last added lines from /etc/dhcpcd.conf
Code: Alles auswählen
# interface wlan0
# static ip_address=192.168.4.1/24
# nohook wpa_supplicant
Restart with:
Now you have wlan and no warranty!
Now let's try OpenWB 2.x
