The wz5005e shown here with teardown and pics,
https://robojax.com/learn/arduino/?vid=robojax_WZ5005E_5A_buck_LCD
at the very least looks similiar, but supports the same io (but diff modbus protocol),same specs and damn close model number as the dps5005. I tried to look up the chips found in pictures but i had no luck. Anypictures available of the chips for the dps5005 so I could at least compare those before deciding to more forward? The wz5005 looks to be identical just with builtin ac?

So possibly two more models. I cant find any docs on the wz5005e modbuss protocol its 3.3v ttl uart, the official windows only software only has using a ch341 as requirement. Dunno if that requirement applies to dps5005 or not. I built a sniffer and started saving for various functions but I dont currently know anything about modbus and woud prefer not to have to go down that rabbit hole if I dont need too.

Could you manage to get the default windows software to communicate with the device? For me the windows software doesn't even send anything to the com port. I have a act LED on my USB to TTL module and no activity can be observed whene i press the connect button on the software. Can you paste your sniffed recordings here?

Looks like a copy of the good old DPS so support should be quite easy for anyone willing to possibly sacrifice their WZ.

So i'll flash my WZ with your firmware over the UART bootloader...

@dclogicsCH @bm16ton any updates? Did you manage to run it on WZ5005e?

@bm16ton I just ordered WZ3605E from ali, it will take a while before I will put my hands on it.

Did you open the device to see if there is a STM32F100 in there? Since the microcontroller is covered by the LCD I couldn't find any pictures of it.

Edit: Oh, I see now its a stm32, did you try https://gitlab.zapb.de/zapb/stm32f1-firmware-extractor?

Any updates on WZ3605E support?

it’s a nice compact Buck Boost module, Pitty it has such bad software.

since the WZ displays are much bigger i wont expect it to be working out of the box. can you access via modbus? this would show the mcu is working.

yeah its an stm, i already run an alternative firmware on my unit from the guy at Profi-Max (which also offers a DPS compatible fw). it works ok but since its closed souce i would prefer oss instead.

ah ok. didnt know that the "e" version is a tiny one.
the original wifi adapter from sinilink just talks modbus on the serial lines. thats how its controlled via "app"
