MIke

Everywhere I want a switch.

Mike, There is a problem with Voice Alarms, I cannot allocate any switch other than SH or !SH. Exit from the Maintenance menu no longer causes the system to Halt, but exiting from the Bootloader menu still does cause a System Halt. The changes to the image display is working well, it is much easier ...

Please check that when you have only the internal module enabled, whether on the DEBUG menu the first value beside "TelRxCount" is changing and the second value shows 0101. Mike Mike My fault entirely. I can confirm that the value of "TelRxCount" is changing and the second value...

Suncoaster

Good to get that fixed! Image files are 128x64, 24 bit colour. The file should end up 24K long. Mike Mike Is that size hard and fast, because try as I might I cannot get the file size down that small. I have downloaded image files from SkyRaccoon and have been editing them to try to make 24K withou...

I'll be looking at why the SPort telemetry is not enabled for the internal module. The only way I know of is to delete all files in the directory, then copy them in one at a time in the order you need. Possibly, if you can get a list of the files you want, in the order you want, then create a "...

Suncoaster

Yes I did, thanks for that tip I will add it to my list of things to check in future. It's a pity that there does not seem to be a way to copy the file in order onto the SD Card.

First flight uneventful all went well, if anything the model seemed to be more responsive. I will now tidy up the battery mod and make the module bay usable and then try my multi module. I will now go away and work my way through every screen and document possible modifications. On the file names in...

Mike

The pins are not compromised so I will do what you suggest for the test flight tomorrow.

Dave

Suncoaster

I am unable to to add an external module to this Tx as the previous owner did a battery mod and installed the charge and balance lead in the module bay. I intend to reverse this but have not got around to it as I am waiting on parts to arrive to finish the job.

Mike,
Dumb question, how do I turn on telemetry in the Tx. I tried to setup a model for a test flight tomorrow and I am not getting any telemetry. I checked the Statistics menu and it is not running. I have never encountered this before, what do I need to do.

BMP format or something else

Suncoaster

Thank you Mike I think you have fixed it with this version. A solid hour with no resets, so I think all that's left are cosmetic issues 8-) I hope ;) . What format should image files be in as I have a bunch of "BMP" files but all attempts to have one displayed failed. Another issue which i...

Suncoaster

OK thanks Mike I will keep a watch on this thread.

Reverting to Model 1 after a reboot suggests the SD card doesn't read properly, although it has already written the dump file! As a test, could you try running without the SD card in. This will clearly operate with default data, and nothing will be saved but it will be interesting to see if you get...

Suncoaster

Another test version posted, this problem is really obscure! If you could try this several times and so get a few dump files it may help see a pattern in the reboots. Mike I am setting up a new Model 4, I was in the Protocol menu I turned on the internal module, and was in the process of changing t...

Suncoaster

Well it is different, and now unclear why the watchdog triggered. I'll need to enhance the report further. When you say it reset after 5 seconds, was this 5 seconds after power on, or did the display freeze for 5 seconds first? I've just noticed that some interrupt handlers (mainly specific to the ...

Suncoaster

I cannot see why the graphic DMA is locking up, I reset it before every operation, and also if it fails to complete. Clearly a restart gets it working again! I've posted a new (tenth) test version. For this one I've significantly reduced the timeout (1.5mS instead of 16mS) for the graphic DMA. This...

Suncoaster

I've posted a new version for you to test. I can see the graphic DMA is hanging, but I don't know why. I've changed the debug dump to try to provide more information. I wish I could make this problem happen on my X10Sexpress! Mike Dump attached. This version was a bit more stable it allowed about 6...

Suncoaster

Thanks Mike, that will be good and I am not in a great hurry, but it will be great to get flying with the X10.

Dave

Suncoaster

I assume you didn't see a LCD RESET alert message. I need to re-write what gets dumped to get some more information as to what is causing the graphic DMA to fail to complete. The data stamp on the file is probably caused by writing the file before I've read the date-time from the RTC chip. Mike No ...

Suncoaster

Next dump. About 5 seconds before it rebooted. Is there any significance with the date stamp on the dump file.

Hi Mike,

It is a little better but not much. Dump attached.

One thing I noticed was the date stamp on the dump 01 Jan 2048. The date on both the radio and my computer are correct.

Leigh That was the problem and now all is working fine. The wizard is now also working as I remember it. Thank you very much as I hated having to start a virtual Win 7 system just to use the wizard. As a suggestion maybe you could check for an existing system and offer to remove it and replace with ...

Suncoaster

I've posted a new test version. This one stores lots of data in memory while running. If there is a watchdog reboot, then it leaves that data alone on the restart and saves it to a file in the root of the SD card. If/when you get a watchdog reboot, power off. Then we need the file from the SD card....

Suncoaster

@Suncoaster - I've just recompiled with the changes Mike advised for getting the wizard working. I've updated the download file with the new version so if you want to re-download and try again to see if it works or not? Seems to have grown in size somewhat (108Mb now) but I recompiled QT for static...

Suncoaster

OK, no idea if this will work but this *should* be a usable install file for Ubuntu and Debian variants that packages the required libraries together. Untested on any other system as yet but in theory it it should work - just unzip, give execute permissions to the .run file and it should fire up th...

Suncoaster

It all looks OK thanks. I'll look into why it goes to model 1. I'm working on some debug code that will dump a lot of data to a file when the watchdog reboots.It may take me a day or two to get it completely written and tested. Mike Thanks Mike, there is no rush for this, I am sure you have much mo...

Suncoaster

This is quite odd. The watchdog should get re-triggered every 10mS or so. It has a timeout of half a second so should not really happen. One of the two things that needs to occur for the watchdog to be triggered is the pulses to be calculated. Please could you try setting a channel in "servo t...
