Hello from norhtern sweden!

I have been reading this thread for some time now.
I ordered a populated and tested card from Paul a little while ago. Version 0.3.

I have a few questions.
The board has CAN-bus pins on it, is that supported in software? Or is it a future feature?
I have read the latest firmware source codes i could find (may 2016) and i couldnīt find anything about CAN in them.

Also, it has 2 pins called Voltage, is this actual HV voltage?

I wish to use this controller in my Think City -08. That car has a Vehicle Control Unit to control instrumentation. It would be great if this controller could send CAN messages directly to that VCU.
An other possibilty is to use the RS232 to talk to an other microcontroller that gathers all information and sends CAN to the VCU. is that doable?

Also the voltage input i wish to get data from, it would be great to use it for SOC.

Thank you all for all your effort on this controller, i cant wait to put in my car
I am building the batterypack now. 176 LEV50-cells, Lithium instead of the broken zebra-battery that orginally came in the car
