Well, I finally made it with my original files. In fact, 75% of the GPS modules I got from A...zon were dead on arrival or died after a few minutes. All of the Aliexpress ones turned out to be good. Now, in all cases one has to keep the bit about measuring Amps in the Advanced file. The rest can be ...

Good evening,
I am with a Radiomaster TX16S with Edge 2.8. I use Frsky Rxs (X8R).
Your LUA is impressive ! would it work with a TX16S or only with Horus ?
Thanks !

Hi Kalle When compiling your files I get the error messages: exit status 1 #error When AN_ADS1115_IS_CONNECTED is set on YES, ADS_MEASURE (in oXs_config_advanced.h) must be uncommented and contains 4 values This as in the Basic file that ADS1115 is defined to be NO Where does i find this value YES i...

Good evening I have a few OpenXvarios working fine, with GPS+ VFAS + Altimeter. Now I wish to make one using only the GPS function. I never could make it work. Now, am I wrong ? it seems all functions are somewhere linked ... Only GPS: without the GPS function, the vario works fine. I did adjust the...

Good morning
It would be great if the current GPS positions as given by OXsensorGPS would display itself on a map like GoogleMaps or other.
Is there a possibilitiy ?

Thanks !

Good morning,
Would the OpenXsensor skech work on an AtTiny ?
memory capacity and so on ?
Thanks !

Good morning I myself had some trouble with some sensors purchased from some Ali.... retailer, or Amaz... Please do not forget that there are lots of fakes there ! If you have a GPS sensor taking ages to catch the satellites or not working: question yourself: is it a fake ? Once you have a genuine o...

Hi everyone I found on Banggood the Beitian bn 880Q GPS module : https://www.banggood.com/fr/Beitian-BN-880Q-GPS+GLONASS-Dual-GPS-Antenna-Module-FLASH-TTL-Level-9600bps-for-FPV-Airplane-RC-Racing-Drone-p-1450469.html?rmmds=detail-left-hotproducts&cur_warehouse=CN Do you think it could hook on th...

Good evning to all
Ok, these adresses are probably the cause of those problems I mentionned.
Now, what to do to overcome this adress conflict ? practically I mean, what steps ?
Thanks alot !

Thanks a lot,
I will have a deep look into this !
Keep you posted.
Have a good day !

Hi all, I am trying to set up some OpenXsensors on a S8R from Frsky. This Rx has in built stabilization possibilty with stab gain adjustment. It seems there is some kind of incompatibility: * it seems to corrupt the configuration foftware: this latter works no more * it seems to also modify some fea...

The 'files ' are Config.basic and config.advanced.
The 'reader' is the application which is used to just read the content of the files and not work on them. It is here "Text" and not 'Arduino'. When I will work on it then I will open them in Arduino of course.

Good morning, I started again the configurator and this time it seems it works ok. In between I just restarted the pc. Perhaps it would be useful to mention that you can read the files only one by one : I had to close the reader to get to see the next file after clicking on 'generate ...'. However, ...

Good afternoon, I am trying to download the latest version of OTX sensor from the Github and it doe download the Zipped version. When extracting, I get an error message from the Python files. So nothing will open. I am with W10 latest and it seems that this Python install is not necessary, but it al...

Well, this would be good news,
I'll try and program my new devices tomorrow.
Keep you posted
Thank you very much indeed.

The Processor was declared as a Uno I have set it back to a Promini and I get: sketch/oXs_curr.cpp: In member function 'void OXS_CURRENT::setupCurrent()': sketch/oXs_curr.cpp:55:91: warning: division by zero [-Wdiv-by-zero] currentDivider = 1.0 * (RESISTOR_TO_GROUND_FOR_CURRENT + RESISTOR_TO_CURRENT...

The same with a PC. The "divide by zero" message appears again, even after I have removed the extra dividers not in use.

Thank you Michel With your files I get the same messages sketch/oXs_out_frsky.cpp:38:19: warning: type of 'oXs_MS5611' does not match original declaration extern OXS_MS5611 oXs_MS5611 ; ^ /home/papa/Bureau/OpenTX/openXsensor BMP280/openXsensor/openXsensor.ino:386:20: note: previously declared here O...

I got rid of the "divide by zero" messages by erasing the wrong resistor dividers unused.
Remains the BMP280 does not correspond to MS5611. I checked and cannot see where the MS5611 shows up ...

I copied / pasted and get the message: sketch/oXs_curr.cpp: In member function 'void OXS_CURRENT::setupCurrent()': sketch/oXs_curr.cpp:55:91: warning: division by zero [-Wdiv-by-zero] currentDivider = 1.0 * (RESISTOR_TO_GROUND_FOR_CURRENT + RESISTOR_TO_CURRENT_SENSOR ) / RESISTOR_TO_GROUND_FOR_CURRE...

Michel, you are really helpful indeed I use as sensors: - BMP 280 alti and variometer - resistor dividers for 3 cels - Neo 6 GPS That is all, no current sensor.

Good morning I had been using the OpenXsensor sketch with success from an IMAC. I could upload it on a few devices and they work fine. Unfortunately, my MAC died recently and now I am trying to use the same sketch with a Linux Mint 17.3 system. I get strange error messages which did not appear previ...

Good morning My problem is now solved. It was due to the fact that I did not follow all of the rules which are listed here under, I learned the hard way ! * Each version of OpenTX has ITS version of Companion OpenTX should be installed only with its own Companion * My TX is a X9D+2019 which has a di...

Good day to all. I have a X7 which I could update to 2.2 without any trouble and know a tiny bit of the OpenTX system. Now I just received a brand new X9DPlus which was in english. I wanted to change its FW to french language. With a Linux Mint 17.3, I used a Companion 2.2 (the maximum it accepts) t...

Good afternoon Michel Well, four out of five devices work fine as expected. Only one still gives VFAS= 0V and no cels value. I used for it the same config files. I suspect something wrong in the A/D converter in the hardware (chinese clone). For a fast glider it is not important to have the VFAS or ...

Thanks again Michel I will have a look at the video My question for 'test' is because in the Basic conf file only some limited possibilities are offered for the use of Test. I was thinking there would be a way to link this 'test' feature to any of the variables or at least some. I saw for the GPS un...

Michel, Thanks for the info, I now get 'Cels' = 'VFAS' = VCC. Is it the proper value for 'Cels' ? How do I trim each cell separately ? How do I use the 'Test' command, it is not in the text that it can be used for Cels values... Last, I noticed that the GPS stays in Knots per hour, inspite of tickin...

Better ! On 3 of the sets with MS5611 Cels is the sum of the individual Voltages and VFAS is the 1/3 of it. Fine. On one set with BMP 280 Cels is OK but there is no mention of VFAS. BMP seems to drift less than MS5611. The same if I reset the Telemetry on the TX, the same if I cancel all sensors and...

Thanks Michel, I do appreciate your work and dedication indeed !
