VESC Tool

Control VESC with PPM and Simultaneously get Data with CAN

Submitted by warhawk on Wed, 2024-03-13 06:23

Forums:

I have 8 motors connected and running with VESC using individual PPM Values for each VESC using PPM inputs from an 8 channel ppm receiver. 
I want to get the operational data of all 8 motors via Arduino Mega using CAN from all 8 motors.
 

The problem is that once I connect CAN among these motor VESCs and run the Setup Wizards (FOC and INPUT), the motors only take one input from one of the Motor PPM and the CAN-connected motors run together with a single PPM. Although, I can get the data via Arduino.

Hello,

I wanted to use the vesc tool can debugger today. I can receive data just fine, which is nice, however I can not copy that data. All I can copy is a single cell, but thats it.

Im running the vesc_tool 6.02 on Ubuntu, using the last build from this very site.

 

Any idea? I couldnt find any other way to export data.

Vesc tool shows wrong voltage

Hi, I recently got my first vesc (flipsky 75100) and I wanted to check the battery voltage through the vesc tool and it is showing like 57v when it is a 10s battery and with a multimeter I can confirm that it is around 38v. Also the battery percentage for some reason shows 130%. I have set the battery in series and battery capacity.

Connect vesc tool with ANT BMS

Hello everyone, I need your expertise. I have a problem and can't get any further.
 

I want to connect my Vesc 100/250 to my Smart BMS from ANT HW 32BHA0TB120A. The BMS has the following connections: 5V, GND, A, B, CanH and CanL. In the ANT app, the baud rate is displayed as 250 for the CanBus and UART has a baud rate of 19200.

 

I'm wondering whether the two control devices are compatible with each other and I have to use the Can Bus or wire via the COMM to the Vesc or whether that's entirely works differently.
