    • RE: Malfunction the J connector on VOXL 2 investigation

      @tom
      Thank you for the quick response.
      However,
      it doesn't explain why the same board with the same doodle lab nano radio works with the VOXL 2 previously ( just suddenly doesn't work anymore ) and work with other VOXL 2.

      And
      we are using
      https://techlibrary.doodlelabs.com/doodle-labs-nano-oem-mesh-rider-radio-24002482-mhz

      It doesn't require that much power

      please let me know if any misunderstanding, any suggestion, or any command/method we can use to verify the J port
      Thank you.

    • Malfunction the J connector on VOXL 2 investigation

      To whom it may concern,

      Is there a command or diagnostic procedure to verify the operational status of the J port on a VOXL2?

      Details:
      We have integrated a board that includes a radio device with the VOXL2 via the J port. Initially, the VOXL2 detected the connection and the interface appeared as eth0. However, this VOXL2 has since stopped recognizing the connection. When the same board and radio device are tested with a different VOXL2, the connection is detected normally, which suggests the problem is isolated to this particular unit.

      Could you advise on tools, commands, or logs that can be used to determine whether the J port hardware or the associated network interface on this VOXL2 is functioning correctly?

      Please let me know if you need more details or questions
      Thank you.

    • RE: ESC Mini 4-in-1 M0129 is not controllable through QGC

      Hello @Alex-Kushleyev and @Moderator ,
      Thank you for the response!!!

      As Alex pointed out, the baud rate seems to be the issue preventing the motors from spinning through the Actuator Testing feature in QGC. I have another ESC configured with a 2M baud rate, and it works as expected with Actuator Testing.

      My question now is: how can I update the baud rate on the ESC?

      In QGC, the baud rate is already set to 2M.

      In https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/utilities/voxl-esc/-/tree/master/voxl-esc-tools,
      I came across the command:

      ./voxl-esc-upload-params.py --params-file ../params/esc_params_modalai_4_in_1.xml
      

      However, I wasn’t able to locate this XML file on the VOXL.
      Here's what I found in the VOXL:

      32b065aa-1eaf-4c5d-900f-63205ff3c1cc-image.png

      In the repo I found is esc_params_modalai_4_in_1_revb_mn1804_2400kv_gemfan5040.xml
      Should I upload this xml to /usr/share/modalai/voxl-esc-params/boards/, rename it to esc_params_modalai_4_in_1.xml, and use the python command above?

      I also tried to manually change the baud rate to 2M in those XML files but it gets overwritten after a reboot.

      Could you please provide more detailed instructions on how to properly update the ESC baud rate?

      Thank you.

    • ESC Mini 4-in-1 M0129 is not controllable through QGC

      To whom it may concern,

      My VOXL2 Flight Deck is currently running the following SDK version:
      voxl-sdk-version.png

      The ESC Mini 4-in-1 is using the following firmware version:
      voxl-esc_scan.png

      I am able to successfully spin the motors using the command:

      voxl-esc 3) spin
      

      However, I am unable to spin the motors in QGroundControl using the Actuator Testing feature.
      Could you advise if there are any steps I might have missed?

      ====

      Additionally, I have connected the VOXL2 to a QGC instance running on an Ubuntu machine within the same network.
      I noticed that the ESC PWM Minimum and Maximum Calibration in QGC requires a USB connection.

      I attempted to connect the VOXL2 to the Ubuntu machine via the USB-C port labeled "U" in the VOXL2 datasheet, but it did not establish a connection.

      Could you clarify which port should be used for this USB connection to ensure proper calibration support in QGC?

      Thank you for your assistance and please let me know if you need more details.

    • RE: QDL device not connected

      Hello @Nathan-Raras and @Nathan-Raras ,

      I don't see any Qualcomm device with running "lsusb".
      I also have confirmed that the USB-C cable is able to access another VOXL device.
      So I have submitted the RMA

      Please let me know if any questions or suggestions.
