The VESC Link is an IoT-module with the following features

Global LTE Cat-M/Cat-NB/GPRS/EDGE
Nanosim-slot
Integrated LTE-antenna, no dongle needed
GPS/GNSS receiver (external antenna needed)
CAN-bus
Input voltage: 3V – 15V
Built-in 4GB Storage for files and logging
Wifi/Bluetooth
Low-power sleep (0.2 mA)
ESP32-C3 module running the VESC Express firmware
- TCP Hub support
- MQTT library
- HTTPS library
- TCP library

The VESC Link lets you connect to your VESC-devices anywhere using the VESC Tool TCP hub and there is an easy to use LBM-library under development for the most common protocols used in IoT-modules, such as TCP, HTTP and MQTT. There are examples on how to stream data to and to subscribe to notifications from Thingsboard that can be adapted for many common services.

Can I use UAVCAN or DroneCAN on my device?

When changing CAN-mode to UAVCAN (DroneCAN) the VESC CAN protocol will be disabled. This means that VESC Tool can’t be used to configure and monitor ESCs or other VESC devices on the CAN-bus at the same time as UAVCAN is enabled. This is especially a problem on the Maxim, Pronto and Duet controllers as they access the STM32 using the ESP32 using VESC CAN. The later firmwares will therefore switch back to VESC CAN on reboot.

Earlier firmwares will not switch back on reboot, meaning that it is possible to lock yourself out from them (Maxim, Pronto and Duet) when changing to UAVCAN. If you have locked yourself out you can either try connecting using the UART-port with an USB-to-UART adapter and 115200 baudrate or you can use USB to reflash the STM32.

So, how do I use UAVCAN on Maxim, Pronto or Duet? Unfortunately we don’t have a good solution for that now. As it is now UAVCAN is not widely used among our customers (and VESC-users in general), but if it becomes more popular we will look into improving UAVCAN-support in the firmware. Pull-requests on github are always welcome of course!
