VESC 75/300 ABS_OVER_CURRENT

Submitted by tecnico.solarboat on Mon, 2021-04-12 21:29

Hi!

We trying to make a motor dyno with two motors and two VESCs 75/300 but the VESC that is controlling the motor is giving ABS_OVER_CURRENT error when a certain torque is reached. The problem is that from the logged data the current values are no where near the maximum current that we have set. 

Attached is the logged data, the MC configuration and the APP configurations.

No power or Comm via USB

Hi,

 

After a motor wizard on my Trampa VESC Six+ via Vesc tool the USB stopped working and the controller no longer powers up via USB.

However when connecting a ST link or battery I get a blue Led and a red led that flashes once every 6 seconds.

Tried to flash via ST link but without any fix for the USB connectivety.

is there a usb chip that might need replacement?

Bringup, pinouts, general manual... where to find?

I just received my VESC 100/250. Beautiful piece of kit, but so far I've found nothing on how to actually use the board. I've got a lot of experience with PMSMS/BLDC, going as far as to develop them and even teach about them at uni, so the problem is purely the mechanics of an unfamiliar layout and firmware. https://trampaboards.com/resources/manuals/225.pdf is only the briefest of overviews, and does not go so far as to tell me what connections are mandatory (ON/OFF?)

VESC Connections

Im replacing the ESC on my Ninebot G30 Max with a 75V VESC.  I am confused about the connections.  How do I know which Hall sensor wire go with each phase?  Im assuming H1 is Phase A, H2 is B and H3 is C.  I have a brake light that flickers when you squueze brake and stays on when scooter is on.  Where does that get connected to?  Its a 2 wire.  Throttle connects to PPM/5V/GND.  What about the hand break which is also a 3 wire?  How does that get connected?  Front led headlight connects to 5V output.  Which do I use for tha? And my addon LED goes to 12V output.

vesc 3.3 or 5v is shorted to GND

Hello everyone,

I am using VESCs and some of them while flashing with USB, stopped working and even when I tried to flash with SWD I got errors. I found out that in them either the 3.3v or 5v is shorted to GND. Does anyone has any idea why this might've happened?

My own guess is that the 5 to 3.3 regulator is the source of problem but I'm not sure. I would appreciate any help or suggestion to stop this from happening in future.

 

Best,

Can you flash VESC Hardware with BLheli firmware?

Hello,

I am currently investigating various ESC solutions for our project. VESC is definitely one of the best options. I wanted to ask if it is possible to flash VESC hardware with BLHeli_32 firmware and have the ESC function properly as per BLHeli_32 firmware's functionality? Also, just to clarify, the intention here is to of course use the VESC hardware with VESC firmware as an ideal solution, however, to also investigate if another firmware would work on the same hardware?

VESC 75/300 UART connections to microcontroller

We have been using a configuration with two VESCs 75/300 connected to a Teensy 3.2 which shares the same battery ground with the VESCs. The Master VESC is connected with TX, RX, GND and 5V to the Teensy and the second is connected through CAN to the master VESC. (The 5V is just to check if the VESC is powered not really powering anything and has a resistor in series to limit the current)
