Before I hook everything up, I would like some second opinions, on my wiring before powering the G300 VESC up.
I’ve got the G300 VESC, a bluetooth module, a power switch and a controller reciever. I’ve attached a picture of the input ports on the G300.
When I got the power switch, BT module and RC reciever, they all use a connecter that only goes into the COMMON port on the VESC. I do not want the power switch, so that is out of the picture.
Is it possible to wire the BT module and the RC reciever to both go through the COMMON port, or should I re-wire the connections, to that the RC-module uses the UART2 Port (4pin), by using the TX2, RX2, 5V and GND. Therefor leaving the BT module in the COMMON port.
If so, what settings in the VESC Tool should I change?
It doesn’t matter which uart you use for the devices. I’d put the BT module to uart2. Make sure “permanent uart” is enabled in vesc tool for the 2nd uart to be active. In case it should not work, you might need to cross rx/tx.
Thanks, I can’t seem to find the ‘‘permanent uart’’ setting in the VESC Tool APP on Iphone. I am currently having connectivty problems with usb-c to pc, so I am limited to only using bluetooth to my Iphone app.
Perhaps it is possible to connect the pc with bluetooth to the vesc??
From a windows PC you can’t, native BT from VESC tool is not supported. You can try to use “wireless bridge to computer” from vesc tool on your mobile (connected through bt) and connect over wlan with ip from your PC.
