Sensor Angles
This menu show the actual timing for each of the three sensor elements. Smaller
difference between these values makes a good sensor. All motor manufacturers have
tolerances in the production and the resulting alignment depend on production batch and
how well the chip is aligned on the PCB. However, this is not the whole story. It is also
important how the sensor board is mounted inside the motor since the trigger point is
dependent on the distance to the rotor.
Magnet Condition
The magnet asymmetry is the deviation from an ideal magnet with identical sized sectors
for magnet North and South poles. In the ideal case each pole occupy half the rotor,
resulting in a sector of 180 degrees for each pole. However, this is often not the case due
to manufacturing tolerances. A perfect magnet with ideal sectors would result in an
Asymmetry of 0.
Firmware upgrade
1. Locate a mini USB cable that will fit the USB port on the Motolyser and your PC
2.
Download the Motolyser Feature Upgrade Tool and install as administrator
on your PC (Currently Windows only).
3.
Download latest firmware from HERE.
4. Start the Feature Upgrade Tool
5. Select the downloaded “.mot” file using the menu choice, File->Open
6. Connect USB cable to USB port on your PC.
7.
If you are running build #114 or higher
plug the USB cable in the Motolyser and
navigate to “Firmware Upgrade” in Main Menu and press ENTER, jump to step 12
.
Otherwise continue with step 8.
8. Place Motolyser on its side with connectors upwards and
no
cables attached.
9. Push the “upgrade” button on the Motolyser with a toothpick, match or similar non
conductive gadget.
