    Brake sensor and Impulse Evo

    No, the trike is not ready. But I tested the motor on a test bench and saw that even a significant load did not trigger the assistance. The settings are "ULTRA" and climb assistance at maximum. There is a red LED inside which is blinking after power on (not at once, but after a second). I do not...

    It expects some slope. The sinusoidal and triangle waves are accepted and the square is not. It starts reacting on > 2V, but that's because I have diodes. Will try later with pure sin wave and an offset without rectifier.

    Brake sensor and Impulse Evo

    I have a function generator. Once I understand the logic behind this, can bring it to microcontroller or FPGA.

    Sure, but to interpret the messages is another thing. They just send a hex code, no human readable text.

    Brake sensor and Impulse Evo

    I generate a sine wave 3V and pass through a full wave rectifier.

    Brake sensor and Impulse Evo

    Unfortunately, that does not work. The processor seems to monitor torque pulses and does not react on DC. The torque pulses must be somewhere between 0.3 - 1 Hz, otherwise the motor does not start. There is also a red LED blinking inside the motor box, right after power on. I suspect that it...

    Brake sensor and Impulse Evo

    But how fast would it cut off the power when you brake? Do you remember any delays after you stop pedaling completely?

    Brake sensor and Impulse Evo

    In Imuplse Evo, the torque sensor has three wires and there is a separate PAS sensor which is looking at the big gear's teeth. The motor does stop when it's missing the PAS signal, but after a second. Which is better than 8 seconds delay when PAS signal present and torque signal switched off...

    Brake sensor and Impulse Evo

    I am building a recumbent trike and wanted to install it on that. I've also got an original display and a battery, so my goal is to utilize everything as much as possible. Chinese controller was actually my plan B from the beginning, in case I don't succeed. But for now I will still try to...

    Brake sensor and Impulse Evo

    Ok, thanks for the answer. That is what I was afraid of. In fact, the torque sensor on this motor is broken and I now tried to run it by simulating the torque sensor's signal. The motor starts at 90 rpm, but does not stop immediately when the simulated signal is off. That is weird - not safe to...

    Brake sensor and Impulse Evo

    Hello All. I have an Impulse Evo drive (bought it for a project) and would like to figure out where the brake sensors are supposed to be connected. There are 6 connectors sticking out from the unit. I thought the upper two would be for the two brakes, but it turned out they deliver 6V for the...

    Impulse Evo display - how to check in stand-alone?

    Hi All, Recently got this display together with a mid motor and a battery. Everything was installed on Focus Thron 2016. Bought it for cheap and needed for a project. The seller claimed that the display worked. And my plan was to connect it to a power supply and see it's lighting up. The display...
