EvCharger setting maxcurrent and setcurrent not working #383

Description

@DeeSaR47

The problem

The EvCharger entities maxcurrent "victron_evcharger_maxcurrent_40" and setcurrent "victron_evcharger_setcurrent_40" sliders to set the desired maximum and charging currents both have just two values (0 and 1) instead of multiple values starting at 6A,8A,10A,12A,14A,16A and so on.

The relevant registers are:
com.victronenergy.evcharger | Set charge current (manual mode) | 3825 | uint16 | 1 | 0 to 65535 | /SetCurrent | yes | A
com.victronenergy.evcharger | Maximum charge current | 3814 | uint16 | 1 | 0 to 65535 | /MaxCurrent | yes | A

Environment

  • Home Assistant Core release with the issue: up to version 2025.9.4
  • Last working Home Assistant Core release (if known): it never worked
  • Integration version causing this issue: Version v0.6.2 (and any older versions)

Problem-relevant configuration dialog

The sliders in the integration GUI have just two values 0 and 1 adjusting them to 0 or 1 resulting in setting the maxcurrent / chargingurrent to the lowest value possible, which is 6A
