Configuration and telemetry for VESC [iOS, Android]

Not sure if either my module or vesc is broken but theres no light what so ever, it connects fine but again i have to restart before i can sync it to perimetr.

I am slowly migrating perimetr into metr. You can already use Modes and TCP Bridge as a full perimetr replacement. I agree that this is not very convenient that you need to force close the apps and in your case it doesn’t even seem to help.

Did you get the time to look at the odometer bug? Mine randomly resets to 0 and it looks like it’s doing it long after a ride when the app is killed in the background (by iOS not the user).

Also maybe a new feature: it would be really nice to start/stop recordings from the Apple Watch (hard / force touch would show the buttons , then start/pause/stop). “Ride” app does this and it’s really helpful.

Mine does that too. I’m also still on 2.18 firmware. I was going to post about it, but forgot since it doesn’t seem to affect the data (as long as ‘Multiply Data’ is off)

Or maybe it’s because I am running 1,329 VESCs on my board. One of the two :wink:

@egzplicit please try the latest version v2.2.2, I fixed possible stats reset bugs

I also added switch between Today and All Time stats. Reset button clears only selected subset

Consumption (Wh/km) is a new thing as well :slight_smile:

You can now set Maximum Speed in Modes and based on your Poles / Pulley settings corresponding Max ERPM will be calculated and applied

One more thing, you can add some colour to your Realtime Tab

@rpasichnyk If I use the automatic records and keep the app always open on background, when Bluetooth connect it starts recording without intervention (on iOS)? My board is down for quite some time so I can’t test

Yes, metr can stay in the background all the time. When your board is turned on, the app will wake up and start communicating with it. If automatic records are enabled and you start riding, it will trigger the record.

That’s great, thanks

Hey man…there’s a weirdness with the speed…

When I type it in…

When I click close and reopen the mode

The erpm is different… every time…

:smiley:

Thank you, I didn’t notice since this happens with Imperial but not with Metric. Fix coming soon! But in case you want to use it, it is the smaller number that is true. The bigger number that changes when you type is a lie!

This is a new feature…so it’s a new bug…not an old bug and a simple one at that be proud your app is great :wink:

Would it be possible to add a “manual override” on the VESC count? I do not have the VESC’s connected via CAN, and would still like to use the multiply data function. :slight_smile:

Is there a reason you do not have them connected via CAN?

Hi, the other day I was not able to read the settings of my second vesc on Perimetr (Hw. 4.12, connected via CAN). Is it a known issue? Does anyone else have that problem too? (Iphone 7, IOS 11.2.2, V 1.3.6)

Thanks for your help :slight_smile:

P.S: Vesc count worked well, both got detected.

Yes, many seem to have problems with CAN on the VESC in general. Some has even burned their CAN chips. And from previous RC building experience, Y-split is very common, that’s why I use it. :slight_smile: Also discussed in this thread: http://www.electric-skateboard.builders/t/y-piece-or-canbus/26461

I run split y as well

I wasted my CAN chips via CAN and had to replace them. I use two different receivers bound to a single remote and it’s been awesome and problem free for hundreds of km’s. :slight_smile: The manuel number of VESC’s would be usefull for me too. :slight_smile:

Just purchased the module from Roman. Just read through this whole thread. Excited to get this on my board bigtime!! Especially for the modes for the kids. Also buzzing about potentially seeing the battery perc on my Apple Watch.

Just wondering… I can only see V on the app rather than % of the battery. Am I missing something?
