Speedict Ebike - Anybody seen/tried this?

No, I mean: how much cm of wire needs to be outside of the aluminium box, to ensure a steady reception?

Nice, thanks for the foto.

You don't have to destroy anything, or break warranty to get to the circuitboard do you?
Otherwise, you could just sell me the one you've altered for the picture?

How far does the "antenna" need to extend out of the frame in order for a good reception?


Thanks!

put speedict mercury inside metal box like this, range can 3-4 meters, device and me face opposite.

i tried even hide the wire antenna inside the metal box ... still ok, so the worst scenario is let the antenna outside your frame ~10cm, of course it can be shorten just try it yourself and don't let the wire direct contact with any metal !

Speedict,

In summary what are the major differences between the Speedict e-bike and Speedict Mercury with respect to a basic configuration such as PAS, pedal cadence, trottle, speed measure, voltage measure, current measure and temperature measure, real-time calculation of the maximum power (watt) and used capacity (mah).Display real-time information on android powered smart-phone streamed via Bluetooth, govern / safe guard system with power cut-off capabilities.

No considering the GPS and online map thing and other advanced features, just the essential to optimize the e-bike system and use, and wich is the more stable version at the moment.

And by the way, what do you think about a Sony Ericsson Live Walkman with Android OS v2.3 to run with Speeedict. (I'm not sure if it's safe to upgrade to Android OS v4.0, as I saw some treads in foruns that it became instable)

Thanks in advance

speedict mars = speedict ebike + reverse polarity protection + 12AWG wire + 30% faster + new software features (since ebike has no programming space for further software features enhancement)

speedict mercury = speedict mars + built-in throttle control features.

now i think it is not related to android os version, it is depended on rom who made, most risky rom as per my collected information were samsung S2, i suggest you google it e.g. "samsung galaxy s2 bluetooth connection issues"

Understand differences re; Speedict e-bike , Speedict Mars and Speedict Mercury
Looking at installing a unit :possibly a Mercury to:
Bike: Tonaro Dual Suspension ,with Nu-Vinci N360 Gears (sold in Australia as a Zoco Rossa)
Phone :Samsung Galaxy S3 (GT-19300)
PC : Samsung series 3 Running Windows 8
Have manual for older version and would like Manuals for Mercury.
Suggestions please on install Wiring diagram attached found on the sphere.

Thats cool for the iphone people, and priced accordingly. :mrgreen:

I'm wondering if you publish an api for the speedict hardware through the bluetooth interface? People could build a Iphone version with your hardware if you did.

it is not publish API or not, it is bluetooth hardware issues, iPhone open its bluetooth API on iPhone 4S onward as they changed to bluetooth low energy or bluetooth 4 ...

iphone developments and supports are much easier than android as per our iphone development experiences (we did iphone client on our rc speed controller before), but at this moment we would like to focus on android first.
 
Hello Danny,

eBike, firmware 2.4:
Export to csv with PC-Suite-1.0.6: column-separator is comma, decimal-point is point. >>> OK.
Export to csv with android-client-2.4.2: column-separator is comma, decimal-point is comma >>> not usable in Excel, because column-separator must be different from decimal-point.

hi,

the problem is caused by last time we changed the separator or delimiter with "comma" because we want to compatible with google table, and when your android language set to germany e.g. use 32,01A instead of 32.01A
now we changed the android client to avoid it, when detected language setting use comma we change it to point.
we fixed it as well for our speedict mercury client and uploaded it, tomorrow will also upload speedict ebike android client, so please wait a moment ! sorry about that.

hi just uploaded speedict ebike android client update 2.4.3, it will available on google play 1 hour later ...
 
Hi Danny,

Android-client-2.4.3:
When I select PAS-Mode with 5 magnets, Port Status says: PAS In 50 (real Cadence is 60, measured with timer).
When I change to 4 magnets (PAS-Sensor has still 5 magnets), Port-Status now show the right value: PAS In 60.

I've just ordered one of your devices. I want to use it control the throttle on this controller http://tncscooters.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=41_73&product_id=159 for a DC brushed motor on an Aprilia Enjoy to replace this controller http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2715#p37987 .

I thought there was 2 versions of your product but only found one on the web site. Please assure me I've bought the right product.

hi ken, i checked the tnc scooters website, i couldn't find any information on its throttle type and wire diagram, they just mentioned "Speed Control - Turn or Thumb Throttle" ...
or can you show me your throttle input ? twist grip throttle ?
we are still working on the website and it will be available this week, then we can list all 3 models and its accessories, in the mean time you can order the current model speedict ebike and i adjust the price accordingly !

I've ordered the lbd14 controller on the basis of advice in the Aprilia Enjoy thread and asked for help there with your query http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=18505&p=690671#p690671 .

I've already ordered and paid for it. Please don't send me the wrong one.

That's a great reference, with a complete parts list. I wish I'd found it before I ordered the controller. Thanks for your help thus far.

Rather than using a throttle I'd like to use the torque sensor that is already on the bike. There is a wiring diagram at http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2715#p37987 . It says the torque sensor outputs 4 volts DC +/- 0.5 V when the pedal is loaded to 50 kg. The sensor is supplied with 12 volts and I can apply more than 50kg, perhaps as much as 100 kg when climbing a hill slowly which would suggest it might output up to 8 Volts. Could I feed this signal to the Speedict instead of using a twist throttle? Also is there anywhere I can get power from the Speedict to supply to the torque sensor?

the speedict mercury system provide max +5v, so you can use controller's +12v to your torque sensor, and use voltage divider circuit 1/2 to step down the maximum torque signal to +5v since speedict throttle input maximum input +5v.

This is looking good.

The signal from a throttle will be constant for a long time. The signal from a torque sensor will have something like a sine wave shape at about 3Hz with a moderate amplitude as the rider force varies with pedal position. Can the Speedict smooth out that 3 Hz sine wave or will it vary the motor power in the same way?

are you sure it is sine wave like signal ? why ? can you double check ?
speedict support dc voltage only !

It is a DC voltage. But when the pedal is at the top it has very little force on it so the signal is small. When the pedal is at the front and parallel to the ground the rider exerts a lot of force and this happens twice per revolution. So the signal from the pedal torque sensor will probably need to be smoothed in the Speedict software.
