that is where it is weird… but the hardest thing with something like that is if it doesn’t happen for Mika it will be hard for him to track down if there is an issue within the firmware causing it. this is why the thought of going back to a pre11 release would be something that would have to be done to help figure out if it is something that has been induced recently… I don’t experience it on my Large but I also use a High Res SinCOS and don’t have the BiSS.
Yeah hard to diagnose, especially as exactly nothing related to FFB or FFB processing was changed.
What IONI firmware version are you guys running at?
11.2.
but my friend updated granity to latest version from this site
could that be issue?
Granity is just a tool. IONI firmware is different thing. Please confirm.
And that is the Simucube firmware version, not the IONI firmware version.
I will need t get that info from him tomorrow as he works early and is off to bed.
I am running Simucube 11.2 and IONI drive FW version 10707
I’m running Granity 1.13.0
Thanks
He’s running same Simucube/IONI FW as me
most likely this is not a hardware issue, but an issue with different feel due to another encoder,and maybe the maximum amps the servo is running is different (lower) if your friend used a ready-made drc file. Have him confirm whether or not the displayed current value in Simucube matches what he had before.
He used the DRC from Tomo for the Biss-C (he was advised to use the 2.1M as that’s the resolution limit of Simucube).
His voltages are the same (12.86 MMC, 12.360 MCC).
It’s probably just the feel of new encoder as you say.
deleted as found answer
Rather deleted the question instead of sharing the answer? Wow…
@Vranq - sorry, my question was easily resolved by myself and I assumed it was my silly mistake not knowing better.
However, since you wanted to know - I was having trouble getting the DRC file for my new Biss-C encoder to load in Granity after installing the new encoder to replace my 2048-line SinCOS.
I was still running Granity version 1.13, and I guess the file (22-bit 4.2M) was created in a newer version of Granity 1.14. I ended up using the latest 1.15 version and of course it worked flawlessly.
Hope that’s helpful, just didn’t want to waste anyone’s time.
Hi Guys, I’m looking to get a batch of BiSS-C encoders from china with the relevant cables. I’ve read much of this thread and thank you all for the great information. I’ll be getting some spacer plates made up for the older Mige motors but I wanted to be 100% sure of the shaft differences for the older and newer Mige motors. Does anyone have any details dimensions of the shafts at the encoder end that include the cone angles?
Many Thanks
Hi,
do you still have adapter plates or the drwaing from this adapter. The Files are not located at your Link.
Thank You.
I scratched my head with the link too, but give the link a try I know the link takes you to “Latest SimuCube1 Firmware 50.4d” but if you actually download the ZIP then the contents are actually the STEP file for the adapter and not the 50.4d firmware
So I finally got the BiSS-C encoder kit sorted. I needed one as did a few other team members to get our SC1’s up to spec. I ordered a few extra’s if anyone is in need. Probably breaking forum rules, but I’m just trying to help people out, this isn’t my line of business.
Ramiboo… someone just dropped my big mige on its encoder… I had the Hein ERN Sincos encoder that is almost impossible to get now, would you have the details of the Biss I could have to get one for my now defunct 30nm mige ??
Thanks
Hey Ian,
I just responded to your email in regards to the encoder on the website.
Ramiboo is a good friend of mine. Send me a pm and I’ll send you the files to get the plate done. You can order the Biss-c from Lisa at Mige.
