Charger Programming
This probably a long shot, but does anyone know how to make a programming cable for the onboard charger and where I might get the software? The cable and software are described in this video.

Re: Charger Programming
The chargers are delta q chargers. I don’t know if the chargers are tied to the controller on these carts via canbus or if the setting are done standalone. The new icon controllers for 2022 do not use canbus communication protocol so I am guessing even if they were connected to the controller in the past the new ones are probably more standalone? You can download the software to change the parameters of the chargers off the delta q website for free. Haven’t seen much info on the interface cable itself. I looked into this briefly a few weeks back. The cord looks like standard usb with some kind of canbus converter box then a tyco style red black multi pin square connector.
Here’s info on the cable and software download: https://delta-q.com/software-accessories/ This is the most info I could find on the cable: https://www.orionbms.com/charger-int...ta-q-chargers/ |

Re: Charger Programming
Some of the delta q chargers can can download parameters to a flash drive, opened on pc and parameters adjusted, saved to jump drive and plugged back into charger and parameters loaded from the flash drive, not sure if the ones on the icon carts have this function or not. Look around on the charger for a USB port and a button with a wrench icon.

If the QuiQ USB interface was easy to find and cheap I might roll the dice on it. But unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the case. I guess for now I'm better off trying to get my hands on ICON's programming cable and software. I sent off an email to LVTONG, we'll see if they respond |

Re: Charger Programming
Did anyone here happen to download the charger programmer software from the ICON portal before it got taken down? I'm thinking about rolling the dice on a USB I2C adapter to see if that's what the cable in the video is, but it won't do me any good if I don't have the software.

Re: Charger Programming
not sure if this was in the video or posted on the forum but the connection is one way (to the charger obviously). Not sure how you're going to determine that you have the right profile/actual change other than studying voltage readings if that's the case.

Re: Charger Programming
Yes, I remember that from the video. I can log the charge current and voltage to see if the changes were successful. I may also try to figure out how to write my own algorithm file since the software allows you to select a custom one. If I can figure that out, then I won't have to buy a new charger when I put in my lithium battery. Anyway, first I have to figure out the interface that the connector uses. One step at a time.
