Hello,
I have been researching for a few months to integrate a heater into my smart caravan system, which I have developed myself. After searching everywhere, I finally discovered Afterburner. I read the codes and tested the protocols on my existing boards, but unfortunately, I couldn't get any results. The worst part is that the boards I have are listed as incompatible in the PDF documentation.
The biggest issue is that these incompatible boards are widely sold in the Turkish market, while the compatible ones are unfortunately unavailable. When trying to procure them, they can only be found on platforms like eBay and AliExpress, which impose high customs duties.
Would it be possible to add support for these incompatible boards? What approach should we take to analyze and decode the protocols? What are your recommendations and suggestions?
A small addition: When we couldn't decode the protocol, we examined the board more carefully and traced the connections leading to the STM8S chip. Later, we took control using an Arduino, but due to a lack of experience, I put this function on hold. (How many pumps are needed at a certain RPM? – Maybe 5 per second for 4000 RPM?)
To share knowledge and help others, I am sharing the pin connections on the STM8S.
Thank you in advance, and I wish everyone a good forum experience.
