v0.42.79

Phaeton v0.42.79

This release includes the customer-facing improvements made since v0.42.72.

Alfen charging

• The dashboard and live status now show the charger's safe current, the current actually applied, whether the requested current was accepted, and how long the request remains valid.
• Active current requests are refreshed before the charger stops honoring them.
• Phaeton checks whether the charger accepts phase switching before attempting an automatic one-phase or three-phase change. Warnings now explain when the charger did not accept that check.
• The dashboard and status view warn when the charger's time limit for current requests is close to or shorter than Phaeton's configured update interval.

Troubleshooting

• Phaeton warns when a different charger appears to respond or when another compatible charger or outdated GX device entry may conflict with a single-charger setup.
• The Logs page can export a support bundle with current logs, related status details, recent Alfen current-request diagnostics, and phase-switch check results. The bundle contains the most recent Alfen diagnostics Phaeton had collected when the export started.

Upgrade notes

• Existing configuration, saved state, and log files are preserved.
• If phase switching is rejected or a warning appears, check the Alfen installer setting that allows one-phase and three-phase charging.
