Hello,I am trying to use the PM08-CAN to display the battery level of my drone. After going through all the settings on the official page, I have been able to test the motor and test fly successfully, and I can confirm that the voltage is displayed correctly, but I am not getting the current. Is there something wrong with the settings?
SPEC:
FC: Pixhawk 6X
GPS: H-RTK mosaic-H
BatteryMonitor: PM08-CAN
Battery: 12S/12000mAh(6S*2 series connection)
Thanks.
@rmackay9 excuse my menshon! (This is the topic at the training school.)
Hi @h-mukai,
I had a look at the AP logs and I don’t see any issue so I think the issue must be with the voltage sensor itself.
Could you check the DroneCAN parameters for the device as shown here on the holybro website? In particular the BAT_AMP_PERVLT and BAT_VOLT_MULT parameters. Please note these are the device’s parameters exposed via DroneCAN. These are not the AP parameters.
Thanks @rmackay9 !

I’ll send you DroneCAN param file.
Those two parameters are not currently changed because, as per Ampere per Volt, they should not be able to be set unless the current is displayed to some extent.
(If I have to set it all up myself, then I’m not doing my job as an “ammeter” particularly well…)
