I have a problem/concern about connecting to the latest BLDC tool as my firmware is old and I cannot find saved original settings file to upload and revert to should all go Pete Tong.
Plan was to simply use an old version of the BLDC tool but there was a problem opening this as DLL files were missing, these I managed to restore but then got following message and gave up.
If I use current version of BLDC and update firmware to 2.18 will the current VESC settings be lost?
Sorry if this is an amateur question - I’d prefer to look a fool and keep skating than have to spend time working out my optimum settings once again.
I could just leave the USB lead connected feed it out of enclosure and bag the end whilst tweaking - hadn’t thought of that before.
Still frustrating as settings are sweet.
Reason for wanting to be able to restore current settings is that I wanted to use the VESC for testing a different board/set up and simply restore and switch back once done.
Another solution is to buy another VESC for current project and leave the other alone.
Has anyone a link to any older versions of the bldc tool?
If I can reinstall a version that works with fw2.10 i can save my settings before updating to 2.18 and wiping everything.
