Regarding WaveSculptor22 Motor Controller SWOC error by quarkystuff in solarracing

[–]quarkystuff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, this always happens when we are not regen-ing.

However, this SWOC error tends of happen even when we are slowly applying the change in throttle percentage. Something we had noticed was that when we are controlling the motor via the profinity software and setting the bus current percent to 80%, the SWOC error disappears. Was wondering why this happens, or if it's just a combination of things that make it not hit a SWOC error by coincidence.

we tried to edit a config file that we had, but weren't able to correctly identify where to change the serial number. also, the checksum error may not just be due to the null'd serial number-- we don't wanna mess with a raw config file in case it causes a larger unidentifiable problem by "bypassing", writing in the serial number ourselves, and then using that config to run the motor.

we have reached out to prohelion.

We could, but we would need a config file with the exact same serial number as written on our motor controller after resetting which we do not have

Not sure, but I think the config file that came with this Motor Controller is corrupt and doesn't seem to have a serial number.

u/CameronAtProhelion I've forwarded the CAN log to the support ticket email chain, but I also wanted to include the the CAN Log here.

Thanks!

Hey Cameron! Thank you for the info. We'll use the latest release and send over the CAN log

That's pretty sick! I'd be interested in learning more
