Programming the Vector Controller

Ggtronic:
Thanks BikeMad for your support...
i have download your Vector program...

i have the same problem to connect to my Magic pie Vector :
have the 10 pin USB connector using old software and cannot connect , cable might not be appropriate ?

in fact I don't even know if I really have the Vector ? no marks+ no details on the hub
it run good with factory parameter and it seems to have more silent & smooth startup...  ;)

It seems Golden Motor did not tell me about the new Vector USB Cables. I have them now. It is unfortunate I have to come to the forum to learn about them. If I sent one to anyone by mistake please click the link below and we will get it sorted.

I have used the new vector 5 pin usb cable now and connected with the software and I must say despite the way you have to get it up and running it is very impressive. Nice clean look and lots of settings to toy with.

Here is a link to a video I made on connecting. The video is currently uploading so it will be online shortly. It outlines to method to connect as listed by Alan above and also shows how to find out what com port your USB cable is plugged into.

Thanks Alan for your efforts. Your an amazing person!  I think we should "sticky" this topic as its a good thread to start out on for the vector experience.

Thanks for the video Gary...

I have my new 5 pin vector cable and have successfully connected to the vector.
I notice that my controller was setup for a 24volt battery. I changed it to 48Volt battery and now my regen braking is working as well. I used the spreadsheet Bikemad uploaded to calculate my RPM wheel speed and it was very accurate at 32Km/h.
Also, my over voltage protection is now at 62V.

Thanks Bikemad
Todd

Bikemad:

I'm glad to hear you have got it working correctly and it's also nice to know that the spreadsheet is not miles out. :D
