When I configure and save configuration for my ODrive S1 using the GUI, and I repower the system, the interface configuration is not saved for some reason. I’m setting CAN as an interface with a certain baud rate, but it always reverts back to a previous configuration. I always have to reconfigure it again.
Does anyone know what could be the problem?
Setup:
Firmware 0.6.11-1
ODrive S1
Browser: Chrome
Hi! Are you in closed loop while saving? Saving the configuration will only take effect if the ODrive is in idle – you’ll know it works because the ODrive will restart itself. If you try to run save_configuration in closed loop, it’ll return False.
Thanks for the quick response! I figured out the problem. I was always configuring the motor in the GUI and I thought that the parameters that appeared there were the ones that were saved on the device. But actually, these values are just the ones that are saved in the browser cache. So clearing the cache and re-entering the values saved the new values to cache.
Gotcha! Yeah, we currently don’t support pulling the config back from the ODrive into the configuration tab at the moment. But everything in the dashboard/inspector tab will be current.
