Popular Post Seba Posted January 15, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 15, 2022 EUC World 2.14 is out! I strongly encourage all users to update to this version, as it introduces a feature that has been long awaited by the users - automatic ride recording. So if you want to start building your ride log, it's best to update as soon as possible. This update also introduces an option to customize notification, warning and alarm sounds. Of course, there are other new features and improvements, you'll find all the details abut this (and also previous) release in a EUC World blog post - https://euc.world/blog/euc-world-2-14-0-is-out/ 14 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterwheel Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Improved charger controller "...Now that it’s winter outside, after finishing your ride you should wait to charge your battery until its temperature rises a bit...." Awesome! Thanks for incorporating some consideration of winter wheeling requirements. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcgldr Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 The update changed the default voice to a higher pitch. Setting pitch to low gets it close to what it used to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supercurio Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Hi @Seba! I have the feeling that the current alarm (sustained) behaves differently on Sherman on this update. My setting is 55A continuous, 82A peak (estimated battery current, phase current is not available anymore) The impression is that it triggers quicker, at lower accelerations. Essentially, that either: the battery current estimation is calculated differently integration time for the continuous current alarm changed delay before sounding the alarm was reduced It could be me riding harder as the ice cleared up also, but I have to ask as I trust these settings with the previous version to keep me and my controller safe after being proven for months. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed this same strange beep on my phone as well in the last week, running a Galaxy S21 Ultra on Android 12. I'll pay more attention next time and see if I can figure out what it is.

Nothing has changed in regard to alarms logic in this update. 2 hours ago, supercurio said: delay before sounding the alarm was reduced That's true. In this update overall sounds latency has been reduced. 2 hours ago, supercurio said: It could be me riding harder as the ice cleared up also, but I have to ask as I trust these settings with the previous version to keep me and my controller safe after being proven for months. I think this is the most plausible explanation (in combination with reduced latency). 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Hatfield Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 (edited) when out riding my S18 the last couple times I'm getting an odd beep every minute or two (regular pattern - not like a speed alarm). It goes away when I turn EUC world off, comes back when its one - seems to only beep when wheel is in motion. I haven't changed any settings. Not sure if this is only on S18, but only wheel I've noticed. EUC world on Pixel 3 edit: reminds me of a low battery type beep on a head set, which is what I though it was at first - but turning off any external speaker, the beep still came from my phone Edited January 20, 2022 by Ben Hatfield Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halig Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 ¿Where is the new function "ride logging"? I've looked for it in the app and on the web but I can't find it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It bothered me so I disabled it. Like I implemented in my EUC Alarm app, I would prefer for EUC World to aim at reliably restarting and resuming operations automatically if it got killed by the system instead of relying on the user to notice that an infrequent beep didn't happen.

Funny thing is though, it was off when I first checked, so hopefully stays off moving forward 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enabling then disabling heartbeat feature caused this issue to be fixed, however 2.14.2 release also contains some minor fixes, so I recommend updating EUC World to the latest version. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcgldr Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 With 2.14.0, with voice pitch and speed set to normal, the voice intermittently calls out distance as "yz" instead of "yards" on my Note 8. Prior versions did not do this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
val4o Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 I have the app set up to stop the charging at 80% but it never does it always keeps charging it and I have to unplug it manually. Any ideas why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a number of discussions on this forum that'll give you all the technical down and dirty. General advice to keep your battery pack as healthy as it can be: always (try to do this most of the time) charge to 100% and leave it on charger for an hour or two after the charger LED turns green. 36 minutes ago, val4o said: Any ideas why? The ability to stop charging requires use of a TP-Link HS110 smart plug. These are difficult to find in North America and brutally expensive if you can... but the charge control functions demand that specific smart plug and don't work without it.

val4o Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 I am pretty sure I read that charging to 80% or even 70% and discharging to about 20% can extend the life of the battery by a lot instead of charging to 100% and discharging to 0(or close). And you are suggesting totally different approach. Can you explain why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you are suggesting totally different approach. Can you explain why? For charging a single cell you are right. But for our battery pavks it's essential that the cells in the pack get balanced, which happens with the used BMSs only between 80-100% charge. So stopping the charge around 80% prevents balancing and will lead to shorter battery life. Edited February 6, 2022 by Chriull 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What @Chriull said above is the tldr—the 80-20 advice is accurate for a cell phone battery but the batteries in our wheels are actually assemblies of a hundred or more inidividual batteries and because they are 'packs' of individual batteries they require a different charging regimen. If you're more of a video person, this is an excellent resource. 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
val4o Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Thanks, that's good to know, I am glad I asked, otherwise I would have kept doing it. I wish I remember where I read that, because I am pretty sure they were suggesting that method for EUC's and that's going to mislead other people too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the EUC community (and the ebikers as well) are getting the message, although I don't know how an bike's battery management system works. There are ways to do the charge so your individual cells don't get unbalanced—EUCs use the least expensive brute force method that works. Ebike manufacturers may spend a bit more money on their battery packs, I just don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duanew Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 There are some BMS modules available for DIY batteries that can be set to balance the whole time while charging. Our EUC BMS do not do that and only balance during the final constant voltage stage of charging. This is why we have to fully charge to balance the cells.

Waulnut Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 My v12 very recently crashes EUCWorld when connecting. Any thoughts? I have the newest EUCWorld version.

Please send the issue report from the menu app. It may be a firmware-related issue, as Inmotion is known to introduce significant changes to the data frame structure with each firmware release. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
