Hi Everyone,

 

For the last 4 days I have been trying to get a image to burn to a SD card to run VESC tool on a raspberrypi.

Using this link.  https://github.com/vedderb/vesc-os-pi/blob/main/README.md

 

For this I am using a windows pc running a Virtual Machine.

 

But for the life of me I can't seem to get it to compile properly.   I have got it all to the point where all the commands seem to work then the last command

Flipsky can't connect to vesc tool

Hello,

I have weird problem. I plugged flipsky to PC but vesc tool said
"Could not auto connect. Make sure that the USB cable is plugged in and that the VESC is powered".
I tried on different USB cables and diffrent USB ports but result is always the same. I used auto connect and reconect last conection and nothing.
Earlier everything works fine (I use the same PC, the same vesc tool, the same windows etc.) but today always show up this error.

Flipsky 75100 works fine with the motor but can not connect to vesc tool.

Help "ERASE" Lisp Script that crashes VESC TOOL (terminal command?)

Submitted by ebikebuilder_yt on Thu, 2024-08-01 20:16

i have a LISP script saved on my VESC,  it was printing out a message in a loop.  It causes my VESC TOOL to become laggy and stop responding.

Now, I have a problem where I cant seem to 'ERASE" the script and stop it.. it appears to continue running even after I restore the VESC to default parameters. So, i am unable to ERASE the script,  and it causes my VESC TOOL to stop responding when I go to the LISP tab.

Can I run duty sweep without laptop?

Hi guys, I have a VESC and a flipsky motor on my kayak. I'm trying to gather efficiency data throughout the speed range of the boat.

I want to use the duty sweep or current sweep function in the desktop tool, but can't risk taking my laptop out on the water in my kayak with me. Is there any way to do this from the iOS app?

Maybe something from within the dev tools, such as a script? I see the duty_ramp_functional.lisp example, but not sure how I would run it from my phone. I'm new to all this. 

Thanks, Gavin

foc_motor_ld_lq_diff unit, min, max

According to parameters_mcconf.xml, the foc_motor_ld_lq_diff (Motor Inductance Difference) is a parameter between -10 and +10, with a default of 0, and µH as a unit.

But in the UI, I often get values around 50, and never anything negative. in vesc_mcconf.xml however, I see a value of 5.664e-05 being stored. If I interpret that as Henry, this is 56.64 µH.

S0 what are those min and max values -10 and +10, and what unit is it really stored in? Somehow parameters_mcconf.xml and vesc_mcconf.xml don't seem to agree.

Or am I missing something?

VESC 6.05 Fault Coded under Voltage

Submitted by amblerev on Tue, 2024-07-23 14:37

I have tried to review the other postings on this subject, but no fix has worked,...... I am using VESC 6.05 with a STR500 being fed by a 18650 3000mah cell pack in a 24p12s config, Right now the pack is at 84.7V.On the live data, everything seems fine until the motor hits ~65 percent duty cycle, at which point the STR500 goes into Under Voltage fault. I have adjusted the Nominal Min Voltage all the way down to 0 volts, does not appear to be having any impact. Can anyone advise what other parameters can trigger this faullt? 

USB-serial_no ports show up at all

5S 22volt Battery connected to the VESC, USB swapped to different ports, restarted my PC, rearranged the power-on and connection steps for the booting up, I even gave my the application permissions that my WIN 10 Pro advised me "twice" not to allow, AND I"M STILL NOT SEEING A DROP DOWN SELECTION MENU THAT LETS ME CHOOSE A USB PORT TO CONNECT TO THE VESC.

Do I change the Baud channel? Do I open task manager to terminate third party applications blocking selections? Or do I have to give up on the free version of VESC Tool 6.02?

VESC runs only with 50% duty cycle

Submitted by Nimrod0201 on Wed, 2024-07-10 18:30

Hello,

my problem is that the motor doesn't provide the full power. The acceleration is weak and the duty cycle rises slowly up to 50% an then stay constant.

I'm running a Flipsky motor 80100/130KV with a FSESC 75200 with the firmware 6.02.

My settings are:

Motortype: FOC; Sensortype: Hall Sensor; Motor Current Max: ±200A, Absolute Max current 250A; rpm and wattage > 100000, all limits are set very high

There is no error code in the debug console.

 

Thanks for your help.
