Swordfish data logging? Genesis help?

[CraigP]

Rc4, were you using esc datalog for the 200a readout?

[CraigP]

I see what you're saying. Is that a wifi temp system?

[Rc4me]

@ craig No data log..it wont load i can get it on the screen to upload data and it tries but then it boots me and shuts down app. It is telemetry sensor for 4pv. Very handy. I want to try the new gps unit from ose looks pretty cool for speed, temp and voltage. Then i could have a sensor on battery and esc.

[CraigP]

Just so I'm straight, you get a real-time readout on the beach running it and it does store to memory but you're having trouble with the app?

[Rc4me]

I get real time temp data from my telemetry sensor. I havent been able to pull any data from the esc. I can hook up the esc to my computer load it change parameters and see the graph for all the data but when i upload the data it loads then a error window pops up and closes app.

I read into this, very cool! But I couldn't find a current sensor, my most important parameter

I have an old SF 300 that has worked great but does limit the throttle to not full. Now comes the new 220 and 300X esc. These have worked great and I'm very happy with them. At this point I will not buy another esc model or brand. Getting the data to work took some doing. After some time, Hifie told me to check the font size and change it to 100%. Well sure enough my lap top was set to 120 % and changing it fixed my problem, which was the software didn't acknowledged I plugged an esc in. You don't need a battery and you don't need to unplug it from the motor. At least with the new firmware and the new X line that is not the case. Not sure about the problems you guys are having with the older model but the new line is working very well and I am very happy with mine so far. Here is a data pic of my last run on the 300X and my 10s mono.

MarkF, you have an Opto ESC, no BEC?

This happens with newer Windows operating systems. You have to run the app in system administrator mode. Put your mouse pointer on the shortcut, right click, and choose "Run as administrator". Then the data upload will run to completion. These instructions are in the manual, but not obvious.

The 220X is bec and the 300X is opto

update: so I bought the swordfish with data logger because of a seaking 180a that stopped working in less than 60 days , it was not only incorrect readings in the LVC that many have complained about but when it just quit on me I started testing and I could program it, it would do everything but power the motor

I sent it to hobbywing for warranty repair or replacement and when they asked whats is wrong I told them I believe it is stuck in lvc shutdown mode sure enough it was they are sending me a new ESC

I couldnt even get complete or comprehensive install instructions from swordfish when I contacted them they dont care once they have your money... they wont stand behind their products...glad I returned it!

kudos to hobbywing for honoring the warranty ....

[CraigP]

Swordfish has very bad instructions! Some do all right with it, but I've had difficulties as well with the data logger.

Hobby King are very good for replacement units, take a pic of the faulty unit and they send you a new replacement with no questions asked.
