Turnigy 9X/OpenTX switches displaying incorrect on screen
Turnigy 9X/OpenTX switches displaying incorrect on screen
Hi Everyone,
Thanks in advance!
I am stumped, i have recently installed the DIY DHT frsky mod including telemetry. I am however having a couple problems...
Firstly i can only install firmware using the older companion 9x it does not work with Companion 2.1, it checks but does not write. No really a big concern other than when loading models on companion 2.1 it tells me its out of date... any ideas? Ive tried slowing the write speed but no luck. It updates models fine.
Second and more important since installing Open TX all my switches don't match the screen display... RUD,ELE,GEA, F.MODE work correctly. But THR and AIL show up reversed i.e when i toggle the throttle switch it displays AIL on screen and vice versa?? ive tried reinstalling firmware and creating new models but no success. I am using Firmware opentx-9x-frsky-heli-templates-sp22-en.
Any help would be much appreciated!!
Thanks.

I just tried installing ER9X-Frsky and the problem still exists with switch reversal. No problems upgrading firmware on eepe.

Re: Turnigy 9X/OpenTX switches displaying incorrect on screen
You say you have done the hardware mod for the telemetry. This involves re-routing the AIL and THR switches to use different pins of the processor. It sounds as though you have these two connections swapped over.

Thanks for the reply Mike, this does sound like its possible and would make sense. The aileron switch actually functions as the thr swich ie as throttle cut in my setup.
I attached a pic of the mod i followed. The only difference being i have a smartieboard installed without telemetryEZ so i connected the wires from the converter to the MOSI and MISO solder points on the smartie board. This is correct?
Thanks again

Re: Turnigy 9X/OpenTX switches displaying incorrect on screen
Sounds correct. You need to double check the wiring through the to new 220 ohm resistors to the pins at the top of the processor. These are the connections you likely have crossed over.

Re: Turnigy 9X/OpenTX switches displaying incorrect on screen
Hello I have allmost same problem. I have telemetry mode done. telemetry works ok but thr cut and ail switches are not working. Works if both are on if one is off both are off. I have latest opentx with frsky, audio and haptic firmware. On er9x switches work ok. Any idea why is that so?

Re: Turnigy 9X/OpenTX switches displaying incorrect on screen
If er9x shows the switches working correctly, then it seems the hardware is OK, so it sounds like a problem in openTx. These days I don't think that openTx for the 9X is being updated.

May be better for Matevz25 to switch to er9x.

Re: Turnigy 9X/OpenTX switches displaying incorrect on screen
I wrote to other threat... ok with er9x all mods works, telemetry audio, haptic. But when I go to settings menu highlighted item stays on same place if I navigate over menu and lcd flickers lightly. I can hear sound of navigation but highlighted item stats on same place...
With er9x switches work.

Re: Turnigy 9X/OpenTX switches displaying incorrect on screen
Ok I think I now why lcd was flickering, so Im back to er9x.I am using 3s lion 2200 mah panasonic batteries. But I didnt calibrate voltage in tx....so they were completely below 3volts per cell... but tx was working and showing 9.5volts. I think that was it
Re: Turnigy 9X/OpenTX switches displaying incorrect on screen
Hi, update,all switches are also working.

Re: Turnigy 9X/OpenTX switches displaying incorrect on screen
Tnx, I am, was a little trick to get right telemetry data from frsky to tx but now all works ok.
