19.8 Wheel Dia
This data is only valid in Esk8 mode. It’s to calculate speed and distance. Please refer to “Item 10”.
Long Press function button to select digit; Short press function button to add number.
Press brake trigger to save number and return to main menu.
19.9 Gear Ratio
Gear Ratio=Motor RPM÷Propeller or Wheel RPM. It’s to calculate speed and distance. Please refer to “Item
10”.
Long Press function button to select digit; Short press function button to add number.
Press brake trigger to save number and return to main menu.
19.10 Dist. Uni
Available units: km and mile. After selecting, speed unit will change to KM/H and MPH correspondingly.
19.11 VESC Thr.
19.11.1 If select Current mode or Duty cycle mode, it will automaitcally open UART port communication.
After connecting hardware, please set following 2 parameters in VESC_TOOL:
APP Setting>>General>>APP to USE>>UART / PWM and UART
；
APP Setting>>UART>>Baudrate 115200 bps
19.11.2 Current mode throttle of the VESC is controlled by the motor current. To get good throttle linearity,
the maximum current must be set in VESC_TOOL to match the maximum current actually needed.
Too low maximum current will cause too low speed even with top throttle and the maximum power of
the motor will not be reached. Too high maximum current will cause motor getting max speed with
50% throttle. 50%-100% throttle has no effect.
19.11.3 The benefit of the Current Mode is when release throttle, the motor is free to coast without risk, so
this is the common throttle mode for skateboards and surfboards.
19.11.4 In the Duty Cycle mode, the VESC takes the speed of the motor as the control target. When the
throttle is released to the initial position, the motor will stop immediately. It is possible to throw
people off skateboards or surfboards. This mode is only available for differential-controlled robotic
carts.
