KDECAN Throttle Control Setup:
When KDECAN Control is set to PWM SYNC: Primary throttle control is done through PWM and secondary
throttle control is done through CAN bus. In other words, throttle control through CAN bus will work as a
backup (if the PWM signal is lost or disconnected) it will use CAN bus. But arming off of CAN bus alone is
disabled.
When KDECAN Control is set to CAN bus: Primary throttle control is done through CAN bus - arming and full
throttle control will work through KDECAN. If the throttle control lead (white, red, black wire) is connected, it
will be used as a backup.
Initial Setup:
First, we recommend updating the UVC ESC firmware to D460224.dfu or above and use KDE Device Manager
V1.36.1 or above. To update the ESC firmware, press the Update Firmware button and select the firmware file.
For CAN bus throttle control, we recommend starting with the following ESC settings:
• Throttle Calibration Mode: Range (1100 – 1940)
• ESC ID (KDECAN): FIXED ID 02
• KDECAN CONTROL: CAN BUS
• The Motor Edition should also be selected (if available) to improve motor commutation.
• All other settings left as default
