VESC Monitor Android App

No, no new Android version. Thanks for thinking on it, though.

Does anyone else have any ideas why the app doesn’t work? Now it works, connects to the boards, but doesn’t show data other than zeros, even if I reboot. @Ackmaniac?

Hi, one question if possible. I now have the bluetooth module connecte to the slave VESC because I built a FireFly remote that needs the UART port too. I enable send over CAN “0” in the app and I can change the setting ecc… the only thing that doesn’t write on the master is the throttle/brake curve adjustments. I don’t remember whether it is suppose to do it now? Not a big deal because I use the TCP connection to fix it, but just out of curiosity. Thx!

It is important to deactivate “Send status over CAN” at the master. Please check that.

rey8801 · July 14, 2018, 2:59pm

You are totally right, it was on. I do not remember that I changed it. Now it works! Perfect, thanks!

Is there a reason the app shouldn’t work with vedders new nrf51 Bluetooth dongle firmware?

Ackmaniac · July 15, 2018, 3:59pm

No idea. Never gave it a try.

koralle · July 15, 2018, 4:06pm

I’ll report back.

@ackmaniac PPM+UART on master only or on both vesc’s if running dual?

rey8801 · July 16, 2018, 9:10pm

Only for master

L3chef · July 16, 2018, 9:11pm

yeah I just figured it out. I´m an idiot

@ackmaniac

I can’t connect to raptor 2 anymore on Nokia 7 plus(android 8.1) can see device in bt settings but not in app?

L3chef · July 17, 2018, 10:52am

My bluetooth module works only on the slave vesc. What could be the issues why it’s not working on my master? Connected to master it says “no esc connected” (Focboxes)

Ackmaniac · July 17, 2018, 10:53am

Did you set the same UART Baudrate? And did you choose PPM+UART as control mode.

L3chef · July 17, 2018, 10:55am

Yes I did. But going to double check it now when I have the enclosure off. Una momento

L3chef · July 17, 2018, 11:18am

Lol I had accidently pressed “write motor config” instead of write app config… All good now

L3chef · July 25, 2018, 9:14pm

When I change a mode for dual setup, only master vesc is changed. Bluetooth module connected to master… What am I doing wrong?

I’m having issues connecting to my skateboard. I have a bluetooth module on my board but i don’t think the app is able to find it. There’s only a “Unknown device” which i can’t connect to.

Am i using the wrong Bluetooth module? This is what i have: https://eskating.eu/product/bluetooth-uart-module-for-electric-skateboards-ios-android-metr-app/

From the picture, it looks like a clone perhaps? It might not work with Android 8.

This link gives a pretty good idea of the original and the clone. In the image on eskating.eu there is only one capacitor, I think that the HM-10’s without the second are clones. but I’m definitely no expert.

Luuke · July 31, 2018, 7:24am

SInce I want to update my phone to Android 8… Could you please link a correct module? Right now I am using a cheap HM10 clone, which is great!
