This is a repo containing raw code to run a small Tesla remote dashboard on your desk. The purpose of this is to have basic information about your car at a glance without the need to open the smartphone app or your browser.
Is it useful? Who knows but it has it's use for me.
- State of the car (Online, Offline, Asleep, Driving, Charging, Updating)
- Odometer (Kilometers or Miles)
- Last update timestamp
- Inside/Outside temperature (Celsius or Farhenheit)
- Status of the car (healthy, locked, sentry, presence, doors, windows, trunk and frunk)
- Battery level
- Estimated range
- Clone the repo
- Open it in VSC (that has PlatformIO)
- Tune the main.cpp with your variables
- Connect your T-Display S3 and upload
- Enjoy
- RemoteDebug: you can
telnet ipto get the serial output - OTA update: you can remotely update the T-Display by uncommenting the last line in platformio.ini
All variables are in TeslaMateCompanion.h. Code is compatible with TeslaMateApi behind a basic auth such as when you deploy TeslaMate using docker with Traefik.
