Setting ESC for Servo Tester

I wish you a happy new Year 2024.

I´m here for the first time and want to control a flipsky 6354 motor with VESC 4.12 with a servo tester. The motor only runs with a USB cable on the computer, but not with the servo tester.

I don´t use a remote control , a servo tester is sufficient for the time being.  What do I have to set ? Thank you for a answer.

Electronic Differential Control System

Hi im using a trycicle with 2 back motorized wheels, and when turning obviously the inner suffers drag, could I implement some kind of Electronic Differential Control System in Vesc Tool? Im using Mini FSESC4.20 50A base on VESC in "current mode". I could add some arduino thing in order to register the turning of the vehicle.

Any help/guidance is welcome.

Thanks!

VESC Partially off Screen

Submitted by jr226 on Sun, 2023-12-17 20:59

Hi All, new to VESC, downloaded the tool on Ubuntu 22.04, and was able to open VESC tool. I'm working on an older laptop (Thinkpad T420) with only 1600x900 resolution. It looks like VESC is off the bottom of the screen, and there is no option to "Maximize" to fit the screen resolution. Any suggestions for how I can use the tool? I want to use the old laptop so if something fries, its on on my good computer.

1 year old Makerx DV6. BOTH usbs pulled off the board same day taking solder pads with them. Now for some reason, I cannot Connect to either side via Bluetooth on pc or phone. is it possible to interface with the CAN or UART ports? Under the lid theres also what i assume would be another serial connection for programming on the backend? not sure what the next step should be. 

Log csv files good, but can't see in Data tab, Stats OK

Hi Guys,  I have done something wrong. Originally when I first got my VESC-100-250 and Express, I did see the log files. But with whatever I have done they won't appear on the Log Analysis, Data Tab. I can see the file Stats tab. Saving and Opening the csv files on Libre-Calc shows the data is all there.

I have probably turned something off, or inadvertently modified something.

Any clues?

Cheers.

Fried a USB HUB

I took an old VESC I had lying around and since I didn't have a battery nearby, I connected it to a 42V power supply.

Everything looked normal but when I connected the VESC to my PC via USB cable, the power supply voltage dropped and the USB hub I connected the VESC to died. 

Then I took a battery and connected the VESC to another USB Port on my computer and everything worked normally.

Can someone please explain what happened here?

Phase not working on a three phase induction linear motor

I every body, 

I'm trying to use the vesc for a three phase induction motor, but when a set it up, one of the three phase doesn't seems to work at all. So I get too output from the other phases phaseshift by pi. I don't really know if this is because of a shortcircuit or if it's a configuration problem. 

I'm using foc mode with a resistance of 104,08 ohm and a inductance of 1878 microH. When I try to automise the configuration, it tells me that there is no inductance so I don't no if my flux linkage, current ki/kp and observer gain are well set up.
