Beeps 3 times but not paired #1

Open bannon52 opened 2 weeks ago

bannon52 commented 2 weeks ago

Similar to some other people, I replaced my w10 vacuum mainboard which resulted in breaking the vacuum/dock pairing. Vacuum would still return to the dock and charge, but the buttons on the dock don't control the vacuum and the mops won't clean.

I followed the instructions listed under the "direct" method, and the dock beeped 3 times to confirm connection. After restarting the dock and vacuum, the buttons on the dock still don't control the vacuum, and the mops still don't get washed.

Are there any specific steps that take place after the 3 beeps? Should I be waiting longer before a restart? Should the rx/tx/gnd be Disconnected before the restart?

After trying many things and switching back to the old board (which I was replacing due to a wheel not running), it seems that maybe there is an issue with my new mainboard?

When intercepting the pairing sequence via UART on the new mainboard, the vacuum only sends back . (There is no mac address being sent back to the dock).

Does anyone know if there is another way to get the mac address? My assumptions (through looking at the mainboard) is that the W10 robot communicates with the dock via the onboard RF chip. That being the case, could I swap the transceiver chip on the mainboard with the chip from the old board? Or is the RFM300 chip just a transceiver, while any pairing information is actually on another part of the mainboard?

If anyone else is having a similar issue, that would be great to know.
