Experimental no-ranging mode does not appear to be working

[psyhtest]

With --max-amps 10 --max-volts 250 passed, I only get the Voltage value propagated. The Current value turns out to be None.

[psyhtest]

It's possible that None comes from the default value of the _desirableCurrentRange variable.

The code to set this variable relies on self._avgWatts. This in turn relies on the max_volts_amps_avg_watts function, which seems to parse a ranging log.

Now, what happens if we don't have one, @arjunsuresh?

[arjunsuresh]

Hi @psyhtest can you please share the full log on the client side? There should be a line similar to this

client 2023-06-15 21:32:11,775 [INFO] Sending command to the server: 'session,2023-06-15_21-32-11,start,testing,250.0,10.0'

The initialization of _desirableCurrentRange happens here

Testing on a dummy device I'm getting expected results

Thank you @psyhtest for sharing the log. The command from the client side looks fine.

ptd-server 2023-06-20 17:19:36,805 [INFO] Got command from the client 'session,2023-06-20_17-19-36,start,testing,300.0,5.0'

For the above command, the server should be setting current to 5

Is the issue happening also with device_type=0(No real power analyzer)? Can you also please share the commit hash of the power-dev repository on the server running the PTD?

[psyhtest]

Can you also please share the commit hash of the power-dev repository on the server running the PTD?

When I reported this, both the server and client were running the following:

    Merge pull request #309 from arjunsuresh/patch-3

    Update sync.yml
    Discussed in 5/23 PowerWG meeting. This seems to be a bug fix of previous approved GitHub action.

Let me update to the latest and try again.

[arjunsuresh]

Thank you @psyhtest for sharing. I guess there's no major code change since then. Can you please confirm if device_type 0 is seeing this error? I'm not able to test with a real power analyzer for now.

[psyhtest]

I guess there's no major code change since then.

I thought so too, but then I updated to the latest on both sides:

    Discussed in 5/23 PowerWG meeting. This seems to be a bug fix of previous approved GitHub action.

and it seems to be working fine! Let me give it some more checking over the next couple of days.

Can you please confirm if device_type 0 is seeing this error?

Do you I need to change the server.conf file for that and re-run, or is there a magic flag somewhere else?

oh, I believe what could be happening is that the power server might have been running with an older version of the code. There was no update to the server.py since May 23. Probably this issue is also related. This can be confirmed by seeing the server.json file in the results directory as it'll have the source checksums.

"Do you I need to change the server.conf file for that and re-run, or is there a magic flag somewhere else?"

MLCommons is not providing a server.conf file. So what we do is to dynamically generate this server.conf file based on the user inputs. But if you have this file static, this can be changed in it.

@psyhtest Can you please close both these issues? For peace of mind I would like to unfollow this git repository :)

Closed with thanks :)
