My Odrive s1s USB connector break off is there anyway to connect back to the odrive using the Odrive GUI or Odrive not via usb? maybe through CAN?
Hi! Sorry to hear that happened, if you feel confident with your rework skills (or know someone who is), then happy to give the part number for a replacement!
Otherwise, two options:
- Yes, you can 100% bootstrap communications over CAN, including over the GUI. The ODrive USB-CAN adapter (ODrive USB-CAN Adapter – ODrive Robotics US) is currently supported by the staging GUI, which you can use here: https://odrive-gui-staging--can-preview-g1i2betj.web.app/. You can see more info on bootstrapping over CAN here, if you want to use it over Python. We have some other example scripts here, the ones you’d likely be most intererested in are can_enumerate.py, can_restore_config.py, can_calibrate.py, and can_simple.py
- You can also use a USB breakout and solder wires (carefully!) to the test points on the bottom of the board:

YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER!!! I got the can adapter because I saw that there was a way to connect to the gui via can but didn’t realize I was just using using the wrong webgui version, thanks again!!!
Absolutely!!! Very glad I could help 
Note it’s experimental so it might be a bit buggy, but please let me know if you have any issues!

It’s been working great when I use a single motor connected via can. When I add my additional odrives to the can they quickly show they are connected then say not available and disappear. I know this is still in beta was just curios if there is a fix for this?
Got it to work looks like I just needed to update my firmware. This is saving me so much time with setting up the PIDs for the robotic arm thanks for your help again!
Wonderful, really glad to hear it’s working!!
