ECS+ Support Workaround #165

Closed martenmatrix closed 4 months ago

martenmatrix commented 4 months ago

Do ROL ERGO ECS+ Controllers work with the fully assembled PCB? image It seems that the inputs and outputs are the same, however there is currently no PCB in between, which I could replace. Would it work to just solder the three outgoing pins of Megadesks PCB with the cables and to attach the "3-stripe thing" to the PCBs correct ingoing ports?

Can you get more information on whatever that plugs in to?

martenmatrix commented 4 months ago

Thanks for the quick reply. Of course!

I hope that's enough information! :)

What is the model of desk? Not clear as to why there is a 4 pin connector when there's just 3 wires

I was baffled by that aswell. The model name is on that silver sticker in one of the pictures, it's GF-470. However, I'm currently unable to find it online, bought it ~3 years ago. The only thing I can send you is the manual.

gcormier commented 4 months ago

I don't think it's compatible. This looks like the RODULF a bit, and it's likely if you open up that box, you'll find some high powered MOSFET's and it's actually sending the current to the motors instead of a signal via LIN bus.

That's unfortunate :(. However, thank you so much for replying so quickly!
