Iā€™m having a weird issue with my Davega X. I can try and showcase it if needed.

However, it primarily happens when Iā€™m holding the brake, the Davega X screen will start flashing like itā€™s trying to load and keeps doing it until Iā€™m off the brake.

Any ideas?

I havenā€™t had anything similar reported before. What kind of VESC do you have? Are you able to test the DAVEGA with another VESC?

It could be a cable routing issue. Could it be that something moves slightly in your enclosure and presses against the cable as youā€™re braking?

#184

Hereā€™s a video. I donā€™t have another VESC to try it with another. Iā€™m using a unity.

Edit: Ignore the cogging

#185

Also it seems like the remote can control the Davega as well. It just went into settings and when I pulled on the brake it went down the list of settings.

Itā€™s registering the right button-presses. Please try removing the right button and see if the issue goes away.

Edit: Just unplug it. You donā€™t need to remove it completely.

#188

This just confirms thereā€™s something wrong with the right/down button.

#191

Looks like youā€™re using the screen as backing plate? Thatā€™s kinda odd. Who knows, maybe itā€™s putting too much pressure on the button and activating it.

Yes, even with removing itā€™s still having issues tho.

#193

What kind of vibrations is that?

Note that buttons are disabled while youā€™re riding so you can only experience this behavior with some heavy vibrations in standstill. Thatā€™s not a standard use case.

#194

Sensorless motors so I have shaking at low voltage situations.

Is there a way to just have a button lock if thatā€™s the case. Although it doesnā€™t make sense that if I hold it, it doesnā€™t have issues. But the moment it touches the plate it has issues.

#195

I unplugged the right button (up arrow) and I no longer have issues. How can I get this repaired?

Edit: Odd, plugged back in and so far so good.

#196

Follow up: Issue happened again. Unplugged right button and then the Davega started entering settings. Removed that button and then the left button started getting triggered. All buttons disconnected now and itā€™s working but obviously I have no way of switching screens now.

Any ideas?

#197

Those vibrations seem pretty heavy and they clearly trigger the buttons. I donā€™t think getting started in that way is good for your board. You should push to start or if you have bindings you should use HFI.

#198

I can imagine itā€™s probably not, so yeah I kick push. The issue at hand does not go away.

Please see this post.

It shows the Davega cycling while riding under normal conditions.

The new 4.0 installer on windows keeps saying cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

Iā€™ve tried it with the USB drivers installed and uninstalled, in My Documents, C:\ Drive and desktop for each, Davega connected and disconnected. :man_shrugging:

I got it to work, Windows Defender identifies it as a potentially unwanted appā€¦

Itā€™s a Python script compiled with pyinstaller. Itā€™s a known issue that anti-virus programs mistakenly identify pyinstaller compiled code as malware. Thereā€™s unfortunately not much that can be done about it.

Iā€™m glad you were able to sort it out. :+1:

My unit isnā€™t telling me speed. I probably set it up wrong, but I cant seem to figure it out

#202

Does the screen switch when you push the throttle? Thatā€™s the standard idle screen.
