# mode can be either PevMode to use as car, or EvseMode to use as charger.
# This setting can be overruled by using the first command line parameter, to EvseMode:
# python pyPlc.py E
# or to PevMode:
# python pyPlc.py P
mode = PevMode

# Simulation without modem
# For development purposes, make it possible to run two instances (pev and evse) on one machine, without
# a modem connected. This feature is not tested since a long time, most likely does not work as intended.
# If this setting is set to false, nevertheless the simulation mode can be activated by the second command
# line parameter "S", e.g.
# python pyPlc.py E S
# or
# python pyPlc.py P S

# Device selection for the digital outputs, for CP state and power relays

# Device to read the physically measured inlet voltage in PevMode
