VESC Firmware

My problem is I'm trying to update my VESC6.6 firmware from the  old VESC tool software firmware of 3.38 to the new VESC tool software and running firmware version 3.6. (not the newest firmware)

Current situation:

• The VESC6.6 is currently working and powering a dual drive setup with the old firmware 3.38
• I can connect my computer to the VESC and program it utilizing the old VESC tool running the 3.38 firmware without any issues.

Intent:

I'm currently using the UART to continuously show me my speed, battery remaining, amps drawn...  I do this via bluetooth and display it on an LCD display on my remote.  I also log the values that are returned from a COMM_GET_VALUES command.  My question is this... How can I capture fault codes?  I see there's an "mc_fault_code fault_code;" in the mc_values struct.  Does that mean it will return the most recent fault code?  What if there are multiple faults?  Do I have to clear a fault in order to see the next one in the list?

Thanks very much for any tips.

Hey there, so I was wondering how the VESC system handles updating firmware through the mobile app on a dual vesc system. Do you have to update each STM32 individually? At this moment, when I try to update my VESC using the mobile app, the skateboard functionality gets bricked and I have to go back to flashing from my desktop via wires to get it functional again. This is also a bit confusing because I am simply over-writing the firmware with the same firmware.

I wonder if there is any solution for wear os or apple watch ? I scrolled through forum and didn't find any useful information , I think it would be great to see power , speed and etc. on  watch screen. 

Hello everyone

I'm new to this form and new to electric skateboard....let's say new to electronic even though I made a DIY electric car lithium conversion

I found an electric skateboard that has this vesc:

Hi all,

i want to move the I2C pins from PORTB 10/11 to PORTB 8/9. I have no CAN device, so this PINS are free to use.

i set:

#define HW_HAS_NO_CAN

#define HW_I2C_DEV              I2CD1

#define HW_I2C_GPIO_AF          GPIO_AF_I2C1

#define HW_I2C_SCL_PORT         GPIOB

#define HW_I2C_SCL_PIN          8

#define HW_I2C_SDA_PORT         GPIOB

#define HW_I2C_SDA_PIN          9

and enable I2C1 in mcuconf.h

Hey guys,

hi guys 

been trying to flash my vesc 4.12 with new firmware.  my the vesc wont connect through usb so i am doing it through st-link.  i can flash the old 2.18 firmware files from bldc tool and it runs a motor.  I have setup tcp and when connected to vesc tool it says frimware to old.  tryed updaing but get timed out message.  if i flash a new firmware 3xx the st-link program says core lockup in the bottem right corner and only a blue led?

Hello,

I just installed VESC Tool 2.05

My VESC Hardware is 4.12

I can not find VESC_servoout.bin after I selected  Show non-default firmwares.

Is VESC_servoout.bin still supported on the latest firmware? As you know lots of people use it for robotics application.

If no longer supported, where can we find the lastes stable firmware that still supports VESC_servoout.bin?

Thank you,

Jack

Dear all,

is it possible to add the TMP100 sensor to the firmware ? i want to use it to measure the temperature near the FETs. its really small and easy to read out.

But i dont know how to configure an additional I2C Port and where to add the code in the firmware

Thanks
