VESC Tool

Trying to connect over USB, but new 6.4 connects and disconnects a few seconds later.

I tried this on a MAC and a PC with VESC 0.94. It connects to both, but disconnects about 5 seconds later. The blue LED turns off too. 

The Tool displays this message for a second or so: "Der E/A-Vorgang wurde wegen eines Threadendes oder einer Anwendungsanforderung abgebrochen."

                                   "The E/A process was aborted due to a thread end or an application requirement. "
 

ADC Connector is very touchy

Hi there,

Relatively new DIY eBiker here. I'm providing current to my motor using a hall-sensing throttle on ADC (3 wire: 3.3V,GND,Signal). However, once everything is set up and written to the VESC, the connection between the throttle and VESC is very touchy. Any physical movement makes the motor spin up. This is a definite safety issue, so does anyone have an idea for a fix to this?

 

Best,

Application crash : "Missing CAP_NET_ADMIN permission"

Hi,

 

For some reasons, I can't suddenly open VESC Tool after building it through Qt (no error while compiling).

I didn't touch to the BLE part (I'm working on integrating modes).

I get this message in "Application Output" tab.

qt.bluetooth.bluez: Missing CAP_NET_ADMIN permission. Cannot determine whether a found address is of random or public type.
The program has unexpectedly finished.
The process was ended forcefully.

 

Any ideas ?

Thanks !

build VESC Tool on Linux Mint

Good afternoon,

First of all: Thank you for the VESC - a really well designed piece of hardware!  After using it with the VESC Tool on Windows I thought it might be a good idea to start using the VESC Tool on Linux (Mint)...

I managed to install Qt SDK (Qt Creator 3.5.1 / Qt 5.5.1) and to clone the repository. When trying to build I get the following issue:

QSerialPort: No such file or directory

Maximum possible Baudrate in UART?

Hi, 

 

I'm testing high rate current control over 1kHz using USB-Serial connection.

For testing, I changed the baudrate in VESC-TOOL. I tested from 1152000bps baudrate.

In my case, the connection was successful at below bps.

115,200 bps : ok

230,400 bps : ok

345,600 bps : X

921,600 bps : ok

I was surprised when 921,600 bps works even the 345,600 bps is not working.

Do you know why and Is there any body who knows the maximum baudrate in USB-Serial?

 

Bluetooth connection possible with METR device?

Do I really need the HM-10 to make a bluetooth connection with Vesc Monitor Mobile for Android?

I have a METR bluetooth dongle on my Vesc 4.12 installed.
The METR app and PerMETR apps are working just fine.

But I cant get the Vesc Monitor app to connect to the VESC with my phone.
It does find the bluetooth dongle, but won't connect to it.

Max amps on the GUI

Hi guys,

I've been using a VESC 4.12 for my eBike since two years now and upgraded recently to the new firmware and the new gui.
I also swiched to a more powerfull motor, so I tried to ramp up the current step by step to see the capabilities.

The VESC 4.2 should be able to handle 240A continuous, from the IRFS7530 datasheet (with proper cooling, I know). Currently it's configured at 100A and is doing pretty good, not warming up too bad as I have a fan forcing fresh air in the case and temp monitoring.
