That will likely happen tonight as well
Results for April 28, 29, 30

I attached the raw logs. I typed a few notes while hyperterm was capturing. see if they make sense. I'll go through them a bit more tomorrow night, but I found out I have training tomorrow night so I only have about an hour.

Didn't get the firmware loaded in.

stream-poscnt 1 is a not a valid command, so I guess I need to load the firmware to get that command.

At the end of the April 30 log I rotated the wheels by hand. First back and forth several times. Lastly in the same direction for several seconds and it looks like I seem to have gotten a consistent direction and speed.

I think the encoder signal is coming through OK.

I still can't figure out why the controller is not putting out current when I move the throttle signal. Weird.

The base config from Andrew's siemens AC motor is in the logs in a couple of places. It should at least TRY to rotate! SIGH!
