Tiny dash battery warning low during ignition on and start-up

Post by dennis.elands »

Hello,

I have an issue with my Tiny dash, the battery voltage low warning keeps popping up during ignition on (and also sometimes during start-up).
During the ignition on part the battery voltage level is even above the minimum voltage value I set in the Tiny dash.
Only if I set the voltage low alarm back to default it doesn't trigger the alarm.

The battery low level is set to: 11V and I use firmware version 1.17 but the older version had the same issue.

Is this a software bug of did I misconfigure my unit?
Also is it possible to add a delay time (like the oil pressure warning) so during start-up if the voltage dips below the threshold it won't trigger an alarm?

Best regards!
Dennis
P.s. best wishes for 2024!

Can you add a delay to the alarm ?

Voltage will certainly drop during cranking

Hello Steve,
That delay feature is currently missing for the battery voltage alarm, so I hope Syvecs can add it?

I have a TinyD on my N54 plug and play and it does the same thing with voltage warning. Interestingly, I also have a TIny on my Syvecs equipped GR Yaris, and that does not do it. Both have the same firmware.

Hello Beetos,

Thank you for mentioning that you are having the same issue.
I made a post for a software change to get this sorted.

Thank you!
I can confirm that with the firmware update 1.18 it's solved.
