I confirmed. Bind process is using the unique ID present in the CYRF6936 chipset.

Thanks for your feedback. I will try ASAP. I will post my result.

Thanks Mike,
I will try the FTDI solution later. Keep you in touch.
Thanks for all your work.

Hi Mike, thanks for your answers. 1. I checked AVRDUDESS, only .hex and .eep extensions are supported. 2. To summarize, here is a picture: https://i58.servimg.com/u/f58/19/00/34/51/img_1611.jpg 3. If a 5V FDTI is used, are you sure it will work ? Because the serial data Out will be 3.3V. According t...

I will check tomorrow. I got few questions: 1. The bootloader must be programmed in the flash or the EEPROM? 2. To use the bootloader, was is the correct LB fuses code? 0xFF? 3. Since the top/bottom of the module is somehow relative, here is what I think I understood: serial pins for the communicati...

Thanks Mike for confirming! For now I left the LB fuse to 0xFC. Do you think this can be an issue to run the Multi firmware? Shall I changed the LB to 0xFF? Yes, I saw your MultiOrangeBoot, but I can only program .hex file, not .bin file. By the way, I didn't see the explanation how to use/plug a FT...

OK. Have made some progress. With the option -e (Erase flash and EEPROM) the program process has been successful. :D The green LED of the Orange module is now flashing and the module is recognized by OpenTX 2.2 Last step will be to test it with a BNF model. I read the lock bits and got 0xFC Maybe th...

I carefully read the PDF in your 1st message. For the Blue board, what do you mean by "The blue one needs a wire added, and the programming pads need to be soldered [/u]"? I checked, the DATA and CLK signals are connected to the same pins like on my Green PCB version. Here is a picture of ...

I forgot to mention, here is the settings used with AVRDUDESS: With the verbose output, I got a warning telling -E option was not supported with ATxmega. So, I removed it.

Hi Mike, I tried to program a Blue module of a friend. Bu I got this error message: MultiOrange.hex: 16 234 / 36 864 Bytes (44,04%) ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ avrdude.exe: Version 6.3, compiled on Dec 16 2016 at 13:33:19 Copyright (c) 2000-2005 Brian Dean, http://www.bdmicro.com/ Copyright (c) ...

Hi Mike, I finally received my Olimex AVR-ISP-MK2 . At first it wasn't working until I understand (thanks Google), I need avrdude v6.3 (it is not working with v6.1). In fact I used the AVR tools coming with Arduino 1.8.1. I compiled the Multi version 1.1.6.20 thanks to your help. My radio is a Taran...

Thanks you very much, Mike!

Hi Mike, Thanks again for your help. :) Indeed with Companion, I got avrdude version 5.11 installed on my computer. :? " avrdude.exe -p x32a4 -c usbasp -U flash:w:filename.hex:i -E noreset " Since I'm using an AVR-ISP-MK2 , are you sure that I must specified an USBASP programmer? ISP and P...

Ohhh, OK I see. Thanks a lot for this explanation (I didn't received my AVR-ISP-MK2 yet). :) I will keep you inform when everything will be working. Last question: with the Multi FW, the DIP switch and buttons on the Orange TX are not used anymore, correct? BR, Seb [EDIT] FYI, I check the schematic ...

Hi Mike, With the avr-gcc-4.8_2013-03-06_mingw32.zip + your avr-size.zip version, everything is working fine. Moreover I don't get anymore this strange warning. So, everything seems OK on the software side. Now, I'm must modified the _Config.h in order to generate the correct FW for my X9D+ (running...

Thanks Mike!
It works.

Any suggestions about the two issues below (avr-size.exe problem with mingw and the warning during the 1st compilation)?

BR,
Seb

Thanks Mike! I will try and keep you inform of the results. EDIT: With the mingw tooslchain, I got this error message: c:\WinAVR-20100110\bin\avr-size.exe: unrecognized option `--mcu=atxmega32d4' Usage: c:\WinAVR-20100110\bin\avr-size.exe [option(s)] [file(s)] Displays the sizes of sections inside b...

Installing Atmel Studio 7 didn't solved my problem. :( In fact this issue is coming from a DLL delivered with WinAVR (I'm running Win10). To fix this " fork " issue, you must download this archive: msys-1.0-vista64.zip Then replace the msys-1.0.dll with the downloaded one in the folder Win...

@Mike @planger Thanks to both of you! :) I didn't try Mike's solution, I try the latest version available on the GIT repo. It seems to be better, but not luck yet. I got this error message: /usr/bin/sh: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable However I realized I don't have the Atmel Studio 7 install...

Hi Mike, I tried to compile, the binary for the Orange TX. I just bought an Olimex AVR-ISP-MK2. Unfortunately I got some errors which I don't understand. Here is what I've done: 1. I clone the git repository of Pascal. I didn't changed anything yet (telemetry, inverted stuff for my X9D+, etc...). 2....

It is a shame
Thank for the answer.

So far I haven't found a way to get the Taranis to do the PDI flashing. The PDI needs a bi-directional signal, at 3.3V levels, that has a high input impedance (>50K), and the Taranis doesn't have one. Mike. Thanks for the information. Just another question, is it not possible to flash the device wi...

Hi Mike,

I'm very impressed by your work and skills!!
I own a Taranis. Is it possible to have a maintenance mode for the Taranis?

That is an excellent idea !!
Thanks Mike.

Hi Mike,
Thanks for answering! It means, I don't need to update the bootloader.
So, I will used your customized version, then rollback to the French one.

To answer your question, I download the firmware, since I don't have the tool chain setup to compile it myself.

I'm not planning to move to OpenTX 2.1x branch for now.
Is it possible to only updated the bootloader with your customized version?
So I should be able to have the maintenance mode (for S.Port update), but keep my non-modified French OpenTX 2.0.17 firmware.
This will it work?

Hi davx, I know the 3 methods are valid. I was just wondering if 1 of the 3 would have been a better method? And why? I'm fine with method 1. I think method 3 is probably better than method 2. The confusion part is how input/mixer behave when several conditions are true at the same time. For INPUT, ...

Thanks for answering. I know, it is behaving the same way. I was just wondering if it was consider as "a bad habit" to not use REPLACE in the 1st solution below. In order to be more clear, here is an example (Throttle of helicopter): Method 1: http://i59.servimg.com/u/f59/15/93/13/30/gazme...

Hi folks, I have got a question regarding the best/recommended way to setup conditional mixing.
