hey, i have a problem with my focbox unity, its turning on, but the power switch isnt lighting up, after a few seconds the little blue light on the esc turns off, for the few seconds its working i cant connect to it with the vesc tool .
thanks for your help
Are you turning it on with the switch or just by connecting power to it?
it is connected to the battery, and i use the power switch
If you
- disconnect power
- unplug the switch
- connect these together labeled “MOM”
- then reconnect power
then what happens?
Is the delay ten seconds long, or not ten seconds long?
it is about 10 seconds, so you want me to short MOM?
it takes 18 seconds turn itself off when whorting MOM
What’s the battery voltage ?
it was plugged into a 13s battery for 5 sec, but i looked up the voltage that the unity can handle and it says 60v sooo, yeah
technically u can, but little voltage spike is gonna pop it
If you didn’t run any motors that might be fine, but I would not run or detect any motors on that battery and I wouldn’t recommend using it at all on a Unity. You should get a Spintend Ubox for that.
i did not run it just powered it for a few seconds before i realised my mistake
