X9D+ udated with wrong firmware "taranis plus" 2.020

Post by Turbo99 »

I have a huge problem with the FrSky Taranis x9Dplus. :? :? :?

Unfortunately I used firmware 2.0.19 or .20 as an update for 2.0.16 because there is no other one left at OTX, and unfortunately a strong hum and blockade on the X9D+ was the answer. No clear match because there was no FW for the x9D+. As firmware in Taranis transmitter memory there are 2x 2010 versions firmware and Eeprom. The remote control was purchased in 2017. I can't enter the menu, I can't use the SD card and read. I can't find information about the Eeprom update.

I clicked lua and sqt5font and .de on as desired settings. The voice should also be changed. Okay German text and voice is not the biggest problem.

Alarm buzz with power on from the beginning, no text on the display and inappropriate routine voice hints to change throttle switch, switch position error is all that comes.

Do I need to a) renew everything? Or b) Can I undo the wrong update, which by the way is not displayed? Anyway, the bootloader shows 2.0.16.

And how can I perform a) or b)? Who might have a proper firmware in stock? Or is he familiar with the X9D+?

Summary:

I overplayed an OTX firmware 2.016 with 2.019/20 "Taranis plus", but probably not exactly in type, because there was no offer at .019/20. The spark is buzzing and it's not going to work. So I would have to either play the old 016 again (but backwards doesn't go) or try 020 again, but type-precise, or even flash everything and re-enter it. But how?

If I could actually play 2.31 on it, which OTX denies, it would be easy. OTX says first 2.2, then 2.3. So I should add the 2.2 to the x9d+ and then update it to 2.3 and maybe 2.4. But how do I manage to get the 2.2 to sit down? Can I damage all?

Looks like you flashed the firmware for the X9D and not the X9D+. Just flash the right one, file should have "taranisplus" in the name on 2.0.

Yes, seems so. At the moment I intend to write the new firmware 2.3.1 in the x9d+, and afterwards the sd card, which i didn't find on the screen. I change the card.

Do you know whether the card should be formatted or not? When format with WIN10 and Fat32?

It is a blind flight because the menue is beige and nothing else. What do you mean?

SD card is not involved or needed for flashing firmware.

Is that right, Kilrah? I read several times, that the sc card ware should also updated after firmware. What about the updating of the internal Modul? It is in old status.

Yes you want to update the SD card contents too, but you said you couldn't flash and the SD card is not involved in that, so forget about it until you've flashed succesfully.

Firmware is flashed to 2.31

SDCard cannot be flashed, all folders are on CARD and uninstalled OTX firmware too.

The card won't be recognized in the Taranis.

problem solved: The name of the firmware must be shortened to 5 letters.bin

Afterwards to be seen in the SDHC-Card Folder Firmware.

Now the upgrade of the internal XJT Modul. Is it a upgrade necessary? Should the both updates 2017-05-21 /170317 (LR12) and 2015-12-23 / 151223 D16LBT und LR12 be included?

I did it. I think I won't cause any troubles.

But what about the eeprom? How can I update it for FrSky Taranis x9Dplus?

EEPROM stores your settings. If you radio is running there is nothing to do to it.
