  • Make sure to prioritize what the user needs to see

    • Displaying warning messages:

      • Larger notification for a bigger issue

      • Less critical ones (warnings) can show a small signal or flag popup

 

  • Firmware members should be familiar with power select faults

  • Different fault names:

    • Most are self-explanatory

    • OV=Over Voltage

    • OC=Over Current

  • If a fault occurs during a race, you can’t do much about it immediately, but they can be looked at during a pitstop or if the car is pulled to the side of the track, road. etc.

  • Bitsets:

    • 16 bits wife for a fault bitset

    • If a fault occurs, it corresponds to a 1, and it becomes a 0 when it is resolved
