Ersky9x Test Versions

Post by **MikeB** » Fri Dec 13, 2013 11:45 pm

This is NOT intended as a thread for discussions, just as somewhere I can put test versions of ersky9x for people to try out.
The idea is I'll put a specific test version on here, with a reason why it is here. Later, when I have something else to test I'll remove that one and replace it with another.
This should stop lots of test versions all over the forum, and help avoid the forum taking up more space on the server than it needs to.

Mike.

Reason for test version: Main popup and MODEl SETUP index menu.
I've also done a significant change to the Taranis versions. This relates to the internal coding for mix inputs.
The reason is the Taranis has an extra analog input (the Plus has 2). I did have this in order with the other pots/sliders but this has the side effect that the internal codes for everything after are one more that the same item on the SKY and 9XR-PRO versions of ersky9x.
This makes swapping model files between Taranis and SKY not really work. The change makes the files very closely compatible. but will mean any models on the Taranis that use a mix input after SL (P3 on SKY) will need to be checked. This includes inputs like HALF, FULL, PPMx and other channels. The firmware does, however, make SR appear after SL when editing a mix.
REVERSE the right POT operation on Taranis

NOTE: 19-Feb-2018, r221 is now released, also eepskye r422 is released.

The size of ersky9x_rom.bin may exceed 256K. On the AR9X board, make sure you have a bootloader rev 2.1 or later, or the flashing may not handle this size. On the SKY board (only 256K flash) use ersky9xs_rom.bin (s for small). This removes many languages to make it fit in the flash.
Versions that use new scripting language:

May be with a narration of what this test version is testing and changes are involved comparing to the latest version or whichever version it is trying to compare?
then no one else would post anything else here. You can lock the thread that only you can make/update post.

Mike,
Just tried the latest test version (r202), Looks good so far. Still playing around with the model store feature, really impressive. I'm really chuffed to bits with it. Brilliant. Great job mike.

Hello MikeB,

I tried your newest test firmware ersky9x_rom from 18.june.2014 on my ersky v3 board, but the transmiter module ASSAN X8J doesn't work in PPM mode. Older firmwares work correctly. Can you help me with this?

Post by **MikeB** » Fri Jun 20, 2014 3:36 pm

I'll need to check. For the 9XR-PRO, I had to make PPM drive out as open collector to let the transmitter power off properly when using PPM with a Turnigy module.
It is very likely this change is also in for the standard SKY board. I'll check, and remove the open collector drive for the SKY board. I may need to make it an option!

Mike.

Toxi81 · Post by **Toxi81** » Sun Jun 22, 2014 5:37 am

Thanks, I will wait for new version rom which will fix it.

Post by **MikeB** » Sun Jun 22, 2014 7:21 am

Try the one I posted on the 21-Jun, the open drain/collector driver should only be in for the 9XR-PRO. The ordinary SKY board now always drives low and high.

Mike.

Hello Mike,

I tried your last version ersky9x_rom from 27.june and it works correctly. Thanks for your support with the problem in PPM mode...

hi mike great job with esky9xr ive got taranis and 9xr pro, ive been using open tx until pro arrived, i upgraded 9xr pro to lastest esky9xr and im loving it took mr awhile but i getting there, can you tell me does verson 204 have your updates for sport updates and sbus inprovements like on lastest test versions, also the esky9xr zip do you just paste it into eepee folder to replace the old one already installed, thanks for help idar

Post by **MikeB** » Thu Apr 02, 2015 10:18 am

r204 does NOT support PXX and SPort on the 'PRO, I think these were in from r211.
For eepskye, just copy the .exe from the .zip file into the eepe folder. You might rename or move the existing eepskye.exe first just in case you need to revert to it.

Mike.

Hi Mike,

The ersky9xProvR218i.zip is valid for 9XR PRO too?

Post by **MikeB** » Wed Dec 30, 2015 3:41 pm

Yes, just use ersky9xr_rom.bin.

Mike.

Post by **jhsa** » Sat Feb 27, 2016 4:43 pm

Mike, the version "ersky9xProvR219h" from today has only mavlink updates? or also some other features/options that need testing? Just that I know what to look for after I've flashed it..

Thanks

João

Post by **MikeB** » Sat Feb 27, 2016 5:22 pm

The only thing other than Mavlink is when you are selecting the protocol within MULTI, if you go past the known, named options, it displays a number up to 31. This is a start to allow extra protocols in the MULTI module to be accessed without needing an immediate update to ersky9x.

Hi Mike,

I'm struggling with the telemetry from my APM to my 9XR-Pro. I'm using a combo of XJT/X8R from FrSky and I have them bound in D16 mode and my model is using the Pxx protocol. I also have the HobbyKing cable that connects the serial port on the XJT module to the Futaba Trainer port on the top of the 9xrPro. I zapped the latest r219h code from this site.

On the quad side, I installed an AirborneProjects module instead of the Teensy-based APM_Mavlink_to_FrSky. I'm assuming they do the same job. I also configured my APM2.7.2 board as per AirborneProject's quick start guide https://www.airborneprojects.com/wp-con ... -Guide.pdf

I configured the model's A1 variable to have a multiplier of 4.7 which pegs the reading at 12v on the telemetry screen. The only other reading that seems to indicate a value is RSSI which fluctuates. I'm also getting an inconsistency between selecting COM1 and COM2 for the telemetry. If I select COM1, I get a voice alert "Telemetry Signal Acquired" and the RSSI value appears (A1 gets pegged to 12v). If I set to COM2 I get a voice alert "Telemetry Signal Lost" and then all values stay at 0. In both cases, all other values don't seem to register. Telemetry from the Mission Planner seems to work as expected (battery, RSSI, GPS, Flight mode, etc.).

Is there any troubleshooting I can do from the radio to at least confirm I'm getting a signal from the telemetry port?

Could the AirborneProjects module be what's wrong here?

Thanks,
Pat

I'm struggling with the telemetry from my APM to my 9XR-Pro. I'm using a combo of XJT/X8R from FrSky and I have them bound in D16 mode and my model is using the Pxx protocol. I also have the HobbyKing cable that connects the serial port on the XJT module to the Futaba Trainer port on the top of the 9xrPro. I zapped the latest r219h code from this site.

With the XJT module, you DO NOT use the telemetry cable between the module and the futaba trainer port.. That is only for the DJT module. The XJT is directly supported by the radio.
In the telemetry menu/frsky com port, select COM1.

I've had a quick look at the source code for that device, it looks as though a lot of it is compatible, I'll need to have a closer look to confirm. It does seem to map most of the expected values onto suitable FrSky values.

As João says, use COM1, the 'PRO has an internal connection to the XJT so doesn't need the external cable.
Have you selected "ArduC" as the "Usr. Proto" in the telemetry menu?

Mike.

Ok, just got some Teensy 3.2 boards from PJRC. I loaded the APM_Mavlink_to_FrSky code into Arduino IDE (after installing the Teensyduino extra libraries).

At first it complained about clockspeed, so I dropped it to 16Mhz, now it says there's an error:
APM_Mavlink_to_FrSky:179: error: expected constructor, destructor, or type conversion before '(' token
ISR(USART_RX_vect)

I'm probably missing some libraries?

Mike, is there a github repository for this code? Your account only shows the ER9X code, just wondering (would make it easier for me than downloading ZIP files)

Also, is there a .hex file I could just upload to the teensy instead of compiling?

Hello Mike,

First off, thank you for your awesome work with this firmware. I have a 9XR-PRO with a HC-05 BT module and have tested some of the latest test versions 219g,i,j. However, I have some problems with the telemetry.

My telemetry setup:
APM 2.6 <-> OrangeRX with ULRS frimware <--AIR--> OrangeRx with ULRS firmware <-> Dual channel inverter <-> 9XR-PRO

So as you see I use a inverter to invert the serial communication between the OrangeRX module and the 9XR-PRO due to that the interface is inverted. The 9XR-PRO is also modded so that COM2 is used. I have selected ArduC as protocol and the correct baudrates etc. The settings seems to be correct because when I choose the BTDirect function I can connect with my phone and send/receive data to the APM, no problems at all here.

But, to get the BTDirect function to start working I have to first set the option to FMSserial and then back to BTDirect. I have to do this at every restart of the 9XR-PRO. I also don´t get any telemetry in 9XR-PRO with COM2 Func. set to Telemetry. With this setting I also don´t get any connection over BT (BT Telemetry is ON).

Best Regards
// Lukas

The code is written for the Atmel AVR processor (ATMEGA328 on an Arduino pro mini), so the ISR is specific for that processor. It will very likely need to be re-coded for a Teensy. I've not got a Teensy or done any coding for one.

I haven't put the code onto Github (yet).

Mike.

The ArduC protocol selection is for when you use an Arduino pro mini to collect the MavLink data and convert it for transmission over the FrSky telemetry link. I haven't got as far as processing native MavLink, received on COM2, yet.

There is probably a baudrate problem on COM2. When you select telemetry, the baudrate is set for the expected telemetry according to the protocol to the Tx module. THis probably needs a few changes.

The Aduino code is now on Github:
https://github.com/MikeBland/APM_Mavlink_to_FrSky.

I'm not sure when I'll have time to investigate the COM2 to BT function.

Ok thanks a lot Mike! I just configured the Teensy for the converter code linked from the copter.ardupilot.com telemetry site. I'm getting GPS values, A1, the flight mode, etc.

Just a quick question, on the main HUD screen, there's a little battery icon at the top and it keeps flashing at 0% (Even though the A1 reading right next to it is getting my battery voltage at a value that seems proper). Should I be mapping something else in the configs?

Thanks,
Pat

The battery icon shows the FUEL value, not the voltage. This relies on the current being measured and having a correct battery capacity entered in the APM.

What setting do you have for "FrSky Com Port"?
There is a potential conflict between this setting and the "Com2 Function" setting. If you want to use Com2 for something other than telemetry, you (currently) need to make sure "FrSky Com Port" is set to 1.

Mike.

Hi All,

One very frustrating thing about developing new features on these newsgroups is that threads and stuff get lost. Could I invite everybody to log issues on Github instead? https://github.com/MikeBland/APM_Mavlin ... Sky/issues

May we please move this discussion to this thread: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=8396.
This thread here is not meant for discussions, as mentioned in the first post.

Mike,

I tried newest verisons. Arudino did not want to compile so i removed "f" after airspeed * 10 (instead airspeed * 10f).
Now numbers fluctuate (40 to 50), but do not seem to be mutiple of 0,9 to 1,8, which is usual fluctuation when pitot tube is closed - not in flight).

I see that you are starting to use the Releases feature on github also? It would def make it easier to see when new stable release is ready for ersky9xr

Sorry for jumping in here Mike.

Hi CptanPanic,
When you use eepSkye on your PC, it will auto check for new firmware updates.
