Ah, yes, same here. @Freestyler please let us know if there’s anything we can do to help get PWM tiltback for this firmware. I’ve heard Begode is responsive in providing firmware so maybe we should contact them and ask them to publish it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unipilot69 Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 (edited) I have the same firmware but with the 40t cells. Perhaps the different firmware is for the LiTech charger board configuration. The Masters are a trainwreck as far as hardware and firmware configuration.

Jerqfase Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I'm in kind of an semi-unique situation, but I'm hoping someone can help. I did a motor swap to convert my EX.N Torque to an EX.N Speed using a custom firmware from Freestyler. Now that I've updated the EUC World app and it can flash Freestyler's firmware, I'm attempting to push the latest C30 firmware to my wheel, but the wheel turns off almost immediately when the update starts. This is similar to when I tried pushing the stock C30 firmware using the Begode app. Does anyone have experience with this? The tiltback is awesome, BTW. Waiting to get the latest firmware before posting my findings, but my initial assessment is as such: You are a god, @Freestyler. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btl Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 (edited) Hi, i have a Master V1 with a replaced Mainboard and Battery connector Board, but still the original 33V Batteries. The set of Display, Battery Board and Mainboard has been sent by Begode and is not a mix and match by me. The Stock Firmware my Master runs on is GW2014804. When i switch to custom firmware channel, EUC world offers CF2014803, but after flashing this Firmware the wheel keeps beeping. It switches off an on, balances as usual and the light can be turned off and on, too. But it keeps beeping. The same happened when i flashed GW2014803 with the Begode App. *804 seems to have something that *803 lacks or vice versa. Is there something i can do? Is it a setting in EUC world? Or do i just have to wait for CF2014804 to materialize? The Morsecode its beeping is "-. " , so long, short, pause, long, short, pause, repeating.

Ben Kim Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 I have one wheel T4 that spins 105 PWM, and another EX20S that spins 101, is it safe to say I can bump tiltback to 85% PWM on the T4? I find it beeps later than 80% anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just bought an extreme bull commander (will be shipped soon) From what I gather, 1) EBC does have black board and interfacing with it is technically possible 2) EB hasn't released original firmware nor any subsequent updates 3) so there is no baseline from which you could implement the enhancement to alarming using PWM.

Greetings, Stefan Begode never released firmware for commander, master GW2014503 & GW2014804. What I suggest for all you is to ask Begode directly to add the firmware in the app. That's what a fellow member did and got them to post the hero c38 firmware. The beep code above indicates a bms communication problem, so you have a stronger case to make them post the latest firmware. If anyone wants to read his firmware he can message me for instructions, but be aware that one wrong click in the software program can accidentally erase your whole flash memory.

But not everyone. Some people still have a bricked Master a month afterwards, and they say they have tried everything to get it back. As far as I know, my firmware is only doing one thing wrong, which is misreporting my temp readings to EUC World. I can live with that !

Have you bricked your Master doing upgrade or downgrade with EUC World app or Begode app?

(in other words, leave the default PWM limit as it is in the stock firmware) @Freestyler Any news about this, did you have time to make the changes? Additional question for you, @RagingGrandpa @Chriull or anybody, is there a reason/explanation electronically or otherwise why the pwm range is based on 105/98 instead of 100%?

PWM signal is usually produced using special peripherial called a timer. Timer is a kind of counter with some additional circuits like registers, comparators etc. Timer is feed from a clock that generates pulses with fixed frequency. These pulses are then counted by the timer and compared with a value stored in one of the registers. After the counter value will match the one stored in a register, microcontroller pin that is used to output PWM signal will be set. Timer continues to count the clock pulses until its value will match another register. When both values are equal, timer will be cleared, PWM output will reset and everything starts again. By changing the value of second register you effectively changes frequency of PWM signal and by changing value of first register you will change ratio of PWM signal. Note that none of values has to be multiply of 100. If the value used to set frequency is, for example, 120, to get 50 % of PWM you have to set 60 in first register. Of course we can make a calculation to scale it to a range of 0..100 %, but I assume that it's impossible due to a firmware contrains. Of course what I described above is just some general idea and there are many possible ways, as it all depends on a real hardware used to generate PWM. For example, STM32 microcontroller (broadly used in most of our wheels) has advanced timer unit with multiple channels and modes that are designed specifically for PWM control. But the idea remains the same - you have a TIMx_ARR register to scale the clock signal (thus setting the output signal base frequency) and TIMx_CCRx registers used to set PWM ratio of generated signal. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOS Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 Hello, maybe this is offtop in this thread, but please tell me )).. I'm designing a custom EUC based on Begode Nikola 100. And I have to move the controller (black 100v) up. I would like to change the firmware of the controller to Begode EX-N because it is the Begode EX-N that has the controller on top. I'm afraid that the Begode Nikola controller will not be able to work correctly in the upper corner. Is it possible?

Zrex90 Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 (edited) @Freestyler @Seba Hi Freestyler, Seba, I have a begode EXN and I'm using with success the PWM Tiltback firmware you did. It helps a lot in terms of safety. As I live in France, I was using a Flic button connected through EUC World to switch my speed to 25 km/h quickly to get align with the local regulation. By using the Custom Firmware it doesn't switch anymore when I push the Flic buttom. Do you think it's feasible to have such feature, having both of best world ? Thanks in advance.

Salut, Which EUC World version do you use? With 2.30.2 on my Begode T4 that works. Anyway, there is no speed/power bench available at police/gendarmerie to test our wheels. I don't think the regulation mode make any difference. If you're catch speeding, you're catch speeding. Also, I don't think the tiltback speed is reported via the app (I didn't checked because I don't play with that, but it wasn't on MCM) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With dynamic tiltback enabled, you cannot set a custom tiltback speed. Seba could get around that by first disabling dynamic tiltback and then setting the tiltback speed.
