Tilt = 0.00 #135

Closed kjenset closed 6 years ago

kjenset commented 6 years ago

Hi

My ISpindel not showing the degrees. I have tried the calibration under maintenance, but even after 15min the blue led dosen't change from solid to blink.

The temperature is correct and the connection to ubidots works!

Any clue?

Either the connections to the GY-251 have cold solder joints or a short circuit or the GY-521 is broken.

What was the problem, mine is showing 0.0 to

studawg66 commented 4 years ago

Did anyone find the answer to this? I have re-soldered joints and replaced the gyro board and I still get 0.0. The LED on the gyro module is lit when it gets power and all other functions work just fine. Any ideas? Can I just add jumper wires from the board to the D1 board to see if my PCB is bad?

Naesstrom commented 4 years ago

I read somewhere else that the adress of the gyro might differ from one source to another and that makes it show 0 as tilt... Wish there would be a fix in the software for it since I have 5 ispindels soldered and ready that doesn't work right now!

High guessing. Please attach your console logs at least

studawg66 commented 4 years ago

In my case, 2 out of the 5 gyros I ordered (same batch) did not work. I tried some troubleshooting of the GY-521 board, but couldn't identify the issue. Replaced the GY-521 with a new one and the iSpindel reads the angle as it should. I have read that these GY-521 boards are really flaky. If you are going to build 5 iSpindels, order 10 of the GY-521 to be safe. They are cheap.

Naesstrom commented 4 years ago

I wonder if it's related to this: https://github.com/universam1/iSpindel/issues/302 That some gyros have the correct adress and some don't depending on production

studawg66 commented 4 years ago

Could be related, but mine were from the same batch and the two that reported 0.0 reported 0.0 to Ubidots as well, so that seems to be a different issue.
