Full Changelog: 2.0.0...2.1.0

2.0.0

This release ships a breaking change because the (flaky) auto-detection of the protocol version was removed. You have to choose the appropriate in future. The protocol version JK02 was renamed to JK02_24S to force all users to update and double check their YAML configurations. Rule of thumb: If your power_tube_temperature sensor works fine and shows a reasonable measurement you are using the correct protocol version.

Some more improvements since version 1.5.0:

• UART-TTL: Improved preamble synchronization. This should reduce the amount of CRC errors every now and then (#340)
• UART-TTL: Command support added. The charging, discharging and balancing switch can be controlled using the UART connection now! Kudos to @jrventer (#343)
• BLE: During OTA updates the BLE connection gets suspended now. Kudos to @tomatensaus (#417)
• BLE: BLE discovery improved because the advertised BLE name of a JK-BMS has changed slighty (#423)
• BLE: Some new feature of the JK-PBs series were added: Switch entities (heating, disable_temperature_sensors, display_always_on, smart_sleep, timed_stored_data, disable_pcl_module, charging_float_mode) (#424)
• BLE: The implementation of the emergency feature (emergency time countdown sensor and emergency switch) is complete now (#428)
• BLE: Some new settings (port switch and device address) gets printed to the log (#431) (#432)
• BLE: The implementation of the heating feature (heating status, heating current and heating switch) is complete now. Kudos to @RFDarter (#436)

1.5.0

The online status of the BMS is monitored now. If the BMS doesn't respond 10 times in a row the state of the sensors gets changed to unavailable. Furtheremore this release includes a lot of minor improvements.

Please make sure you are using protocol_version: JK02_32S of you own a JK-BMS with hardware version >= 11. The auto-detection of the procotol version will be removed in future because it doesn't work reliable.

1.4.0

The device support of the JK-B2A8S20P hardware version 11+ was improved. Kudos to @riker65 for providing countless btsnoop captures and testing. Please use protocol_version: JK02_32S if you own this model (cp. esp32-ble-b2a8s20p-v11-example.yaml).

1.3.0

Heltec/NEEY 4A balancer support added and minor fixes.

1.2.0

JK-B2A8S20P firmware version 11.17 support added. The format of the cell info frame (BLE) has changed a bit and supports 32 cells now.
