Sensorbox-2

Sensorbox2 measures the current(A) and current direction for up to three phases with CT's and a MAINS voltage input. It can also receive these measurements directly from a (D)SMR5 smart meters P1 port. These measurements are then sent every two seconds to the connected SmartEVSE(s).

The Sensorbox2 uses a PIC microcontroller which does the CT measurements and sends this information to the ESP32. The ESP32 processes the P1 port (Smart Meter connection) data and RS485 communication to the SmartESVE. The PIC will be (re)programmed by the ESP32 module. At powerup the ESP32 looks for a PIC18F26K40.hex file in the /data folder and, when found programs the PIC18F26K40 microcontroller.

This code uses Arduino core 2.0.2 as it has critical bug fixes, and much better Uart drivers. Modbus handling is done with the eModbus library. The platformio.ini file should install all necessary libraries automatically.
