Re: FlySky FS-TH9X-B with er9x firmware LOCKDOWN!!!!

Post by Quasimotoglez »

Hey, jhsa thanks men for remember me and SORRY for the other post or maybe a PM that I send, I really don't want to mess up this radio so here is...
Yes, I have everything ready to go, I already soldered the cables on the board with the plug to connect the UBSasp and I communicate with the radio via OpenTx like read firmware from radio and read model and setting and even have back-up the original file from it.
I have both OpenTx and eepe (both communicate with the radio) I feel comfortable with ether, but I have use OpenTx more.(for the FrSky radio)
I have the FlySky module that came with the radio FlySky FS-TH9x and also have a FrSky radio with the OpenTx.(latest software)
I have already have modified the trim switches that was causing the reboot(I don’t know if is a good thing before I even put the new software on it, I should have waited for any conflict, anyways is done…)
I’m not planning in doing any other modification to it other than updating the software (er9x for 128A)

HERE IS THE THING...
I have down loaded the ZIP file that mike suggested (reading in other posts) that contains a folder with
er9x-128B, er9x-128combi, opentx-9x128-en-2.0.17, optiboot_atmega128
Which one should I put? or if it no there , where can I get it?
This are screen shot of the setting I have (let me Know if they are OK)for OpenTx and eepe.(AVRDUDE config and preferences)

For er9x on the '128, your best bet is probably this: download/file.php?id=11026, then extract er9x-128.hex and flash that. On the '128, this now includes the serial bootloader in the single hex file.

I think your settings are OK, but I don't use openTx/Companion on the 9X at all, always er9x/eepe.

I can see that you are really confused. Opentx works with companion which is what you have on your pictures, and Er9x works with eepe. Do not mix them or you might be in for bad surprises. :)
Optiboot is a bootloader, so forget about it.
If you want to flash er9x please do as Mike suggested above. If you want openTX use companion to download the right firmware with the right options for your radio. As I said I'm not familiar with openTX anymore so I'm not much of a help with it.

Not sure why you are seeing a small lag, maybe I'm used to the response so don't notice it.
The flashing bar indicates a change has been done to either the model or the general settings and hasn't yet been written to the EEPROM. They are not written immediately to reduce the number of writes to the EEPROM so it doesn't wear out.
If you do another change, the time delay to writing is re-started.

Basically, if the flashing bar is present, don't switch off!
