1. Why is it that I have to first start a serial connection through computer / usb before I can connect through bluetooth? The PFOD app with see the Ardumower bluetooth connection but it is not able to connect / control until after I first connect using a serial connection. Any idea why?
2. My settings do not persist in between mowing runs.
My battery setup is a bit different and might be the cause of these issues. I'm in the states and was not able to purchase the recommended battery so I decided to reuse some of my 40V Greenworks batteries by using a 40v -> 24v step down converter. I have a hard switch in between battery and step down converter that I use to disconnect power when I am done running the mower. Is this shutoff causing the problems above? I was thinking that the settings were being persisted using EEPROM, so shouldn't those settings persist if I disconnect power from the board?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide,
Ryan
