RE: Cougar Vipergear Hall Sensor Issues and ANT Pot issue
I followed the install exactly how the stick kit install guide specified. I do know that this midlife upgrade has been sitting around for quite some time so the magnets may not have enough potency. I think I’ll just shell out for a new set. Vipergear has yet to respond three days after I sent the email out to them.
As for the pot, it is the ANT elevation pot. I think its shot too so a replacement fitting specifications of the original is on its way to me. The only difference being its a 305 deg pot instead of 270. I have it on good word though that the one I ordered worked perfect on another Cougar TQS from a friend.
Thank you Jumpstart5179.

RE: Cougar Vipergear Hall Sensor Issues and ANT Pot issue
The sensor and magnet are off of each each by about 2-3mm. Any closer and they would be touching. Good thought though. Thank you.

Cougar Vipergear Hall Sensor Issues and ANT Pot issue
Hello All,
I’ve been a longtime lurker on this forum and a huge fan of BMS. Recently I came into possession of a TM Cougar and the Y-Axis pot on it was janky. An acquaintance sent me the Vipergear Midlife Upgrade hall sensor kit he had laying around as a backup for his TM Cougar for years and I installed them. I ran into issues though when calibrating. The X-Axis Hall sensor keeps giving me a “The minimum position is greater than the defined center position for the X axis” error message on Calibration and when I replaced it back with the original working x-axis pot the error disappears. The Y-axis hall sensor appears to calibrate fine but only changes values in between 500-520. When the calibration window closes, I go to test the y-axis in the viewer software, and it doesn’t move. Not even a twitch. Ironically it twitches when the original x-axis pot moves left or right. I’m super confused if I’ve done something wrong or if these are faulty Hall sensors. I find it super weird that both would have issues so I’m suspecting its me. I checked the Vipergear install manual but I can’t see anything I’ve done wrong. Does anybody have any guesses? I would very much appreciate the help. I’ve contacted Vipergear but since I haven’t purchased these myself, I’m not sure how much help their warranty may be. I may have to bite the bullet though and order a new kit. Any and all help will be appreciated.
On a second note, the ANT pot gives me the same error the x-axis hall sensor gives me. Sometimes though I can calibrate it and have it work but its all about finding a certain limit to it. This is all very weird.
Thank y’all for looking at this and I hope to hear from anyone helping out.
