About Power Supply

Q: What’s the power supply standard for gimbal cameras?

Answer: The power supply range of Viewpro gimbal is 3S~6S (12V~24V), except the special customized version (without the CONN board – main board of control box). Excessive high voltage and high voltage ignition when the power supply is not connected to the voltage regulator module will cause the gimbal burned out, and there will be no response when it is powered on. 

Q: Why there is no response and cannot work after the gimbal is powered on?

Answer: Use a DC stabilized power supply to check if the current is 0 or not. 0mah means the power line is an open circuit, check whether the two ends of the line are well plugged in. If there is no DC power supply, use the voltage grade of the multimeter to test the voltage of the two power lines to the gimbal. If the voltage of the point is 0V, it means that the power line is an open circuit. Check whether the two ends of the line are well plugged in. 

Q: Why camera has no video output after home position?

Case 1: Gimbal power supply is not enough

Answer: Make sure power supply is 3S~6S (12V~24V), make sure the power cable can support 2A electric current.

Case 2: Gimbal internal power problem

Answer: The internal power cable of the gimbal is pressed.

About Series Port TTL Connection

Q: How to test the provided USB to TTL cable?

Answer:

(1) The PC needs to install the serial port driver. After connecting USB end to the PC, check the “Device Manager”-”Port”-”USB-SERIAL CH340 (COM x)” to confirm the correct COM port.

(2) If there is no “USB-SERIAL” icon, please install the serial port TTL driver.

(3) After installing the driver, connect the wire TX and RX of the cable together, use the serial port assistant to send data to check whether the serial port environment is normal or not. If it can receive what it just sent to itself, means the cable is normal. 

Q: How to solve the problems that serial port does not work?

Case 1: Use the provided USB to TTL cable, can control gimbal, but no feedback

Answer: Re-connect both ends of the cable and try again. If there is still no feedback, test the TX-RX of the cable itself (Re. 2.1 How to test the provided USB to TTL cable?). Check if the sent and received data is consistent or not to confirm if the cable is good or not. If the cable is normal, restart the gimbal, and try again. If it is still abnormal, it may be the wiring is an open circuit inside the gimbal. For standard version gimbal, re-connect the 15pin cable on control box. For Viewport version, re-connect the serial port wiring terminal and re-connect the Viewport.

Case 2: Standard version: The yellow jumper cap on the CONN board is off, can not control the gimbal (pitch and yaw), but the camera control (zoom and record) is normal.

A: Need to make short-circuit at the jumper cap position.

Case 3: Standard version: The gimbal is under S.Bus mode, meantime the serial port cannot communicate.

Answer: Follow the related instruction to recover serial port control.

Case 4: Gimbal can not communicate via TCP/TTL.

Answer: Test the gimbal by PWM control. If the camera cannot be controlled, and the program light on the CONN board does not flash, probably the CONN hardware is damaged, return to factory for repair.

Case 5: Standard version: Can control gimbal but not the camera

Answer: 1) Check if the software of the gimbal is match or not, e.g. the cameras (Z40K, Z-Fusion pro, Q30XIR) have 2 baud rates, need to pay attention to this point.

2) Check if the communication from camera RX to CONN board TX is OK or not. If not OK, need to repair.

3) If the communication from camera RX to CONN TX is OK, switch a CONN board of same model (if it’s available) to test, or remove the diode D20 on CONN board and test again.

4) If still not works after all above operations, probably the camera module is broken. 

About Gimbal

Q: Gimbal behave abnormal when it’s powered on

Case 1: The gimbal roll axis hits the yaw motor and rolls randomly or no respond after powering on, or rotate randomly in all 3axis.

Answer:

(1) Connect to serial port, make sure it is well connected

(2) While turning on the camera, continuously send command “3E 1B 00 1B 00 00″ to turn off the motors, keep clicking (or set sending interval 500ms) until motor stop moving.

(3) Send command “3E 45 01 46 0B 0B 3E 1B 00 1B 00 00″, and wait for the automatic calibration of the gimbal to complete

(4) After calibration, adjust the horizontal position of the camera lens align to the installation arrow (you can move manually it to the desired position and wait for 2S), send command “3E 1A 00 1A 00 00″ to save this position (it’s also the home position and the position after power-on self-checking)

Case 2: After powering on, the gimbal pans randomly.

Answer:

(1) The image and data transmitter antenna on the drone interferes with the magnetic encoder of the gimbal. Turn off the transmitter to eliminate the interference and then judge accordingly. If the phenomenon disappears, adjust the position (preferably more 35cm away) or direction (not facing the direction of the gimbal) of the antenna.

(2) Eliminate the interference of the unstable power supply by supplying power to the gimbal independently, or adjusting the voltage (try both 3S and 6S power supply).

(3) Update the program of the CONN board/DJI version software/Viewport controlling software to solve the problem that the serial port is interfered when starting up and incorrectly sent commands. (Solution only for new gimbals that rotate randomly and repeat same issue even temporarily work normal after sending command to calibrate.)

(4) If all the above methods have been tried, the gimbal still rotates after the drone is powered on, indicating that the gimbal is subjected to electromagnetic interference, and the internal data got error, need to send it back to factory for anti-interference processing.

(5) Special case: gimbal rotates after working for a while with CAN, motors are burning hot,

Case 3: After powering on, the gimbal is normal. After a period of time, irregularly jerks or motionless and have a chirping sound

A: Caused by IIC error (The main board controlling chip is broken).

Case 4: Turn off the image & data link and turn on again, the gimbal motor rotates abnormally, and have a chirping sound

Answer: Have you ever disassembled or assembled the damping plate? This operation may cause this problem

Case 5: The gimbal motors not moves but has chirping sound after powering on.

Answer: Send: 3E 3d 00 3d 00 00 to query for the gimbal angle feedback, if all value of IMU are 0, means gimbal IMU abnormal. Check if the 5V output of gimbal control box is normal or not. If normal, check if the internal wiring of IMU is normal or not, or if the connector loose or not. If gimbal is IP only version, check if the slip ring is OK.

Q: What feedback can I get from gimbal serial port?

Answer: Manual feedback: angle value of each axis, zoom times of the camera, and infrequently used data (tracking offset, rangefinder distance, target position)

Automatic feedback: angle value of each axis and angular velocity (set the feedback mode, turn on the automatic feedback)

Q: What phenomenons of the gimbal is normal?

Case 1: Gimbal tracking, after exceeding the limit angle upwards, the gimbal will move downwards. This is normal.

Case 2: Gimbal (old shipment) under speed mode, it cannot be controlled after passing the YAW axis limit.

Case 3: If the gimbal (old shipment) is mounted upside-down and pitch down to the limit, it will cause the lens to face upwards.

Case 3Gimbal yaw does not follow or follow is too much sensitive.

Answer:

(1) Use the Mode channel of the remote control to switch quickly 4 times in a row (three-gear switch: middle gear –> high gear –> medium gear –> high gear –> medium gear –> high gear - -> Middle gear –> High gear) to see if it follows or not.

(2) Use Viewlink control software, serial port control, turn on “Enable Follow” to see if it follows or not.

(3) Use the command to query the parameters, after getting the feedback parameters, modify the corresponding parameters. Save the setting by sending: 3E 20 00 20 00.

Q: How to deal with gimbal jerk?

Answer:

(1) Check the stability of the gimbal when powered off, ensure the balance of each axis.

(2) Check the mounting method, the type of damping balls, whether they are too less or too many, whether they are aged, and whether the damping plate has been modified.

(3) Check whether the external wiring of the gimbal is pulled tightly to the gimbal.

(4) Modify the gimbal PID parameters. 

Q: Gimbal control is abnormal, can not control randomly after power on.

Case 1: Some frame header “AA…” / ”55 AA…” / “7E 7E…” not in gimbal protocol file are sent which caused analysis error and gimbal no respond.

Answer: Change the frame header of non gimbal protocol, could not be similar.

Case 2: Some invalid data are sent via serial port to the gimbal cause the gimbal serial port no respond.

Answer: Modify software: Reduce serial port voltage when power on, or delay the startup of the serial port.
