Hmm... Strange. I just checked it again to make sure it just wasn't taking time off for the weekend and still no workee. When a expo/DR line is selected it becomes highlighted in dark blue as expected. When either the move up or move down bar is clicked nothing happens in the way of mix movement but...

OK, I've got it now. Many thanx!

Ted

Range needs to be 3.3 * divider ratio. So for the internal sensor (4x ratio) 4*3.3 = 13.2V. For the FBVS as delivered, 6*3.3 = 19.8V. Then set alarms where you want them. Sorry, but in my ignorance I don't understand. Are you saying I should set the range to 13.2 for A1 and 19.8 for A2 using the FB...

I'm programming all of my models in c9x in anticipation of getting my Taranis in a couple of days. I will be using mostly D series receivers but will have non-telemetry receivers in some of those models. As an expedient, I made a template model with all of the basic settings I normally use and copy ...

I found that the "Move Up" and "Move Down" features in the Expos/DR tab in v1.34 do not work. They do work properly in the Mixes tab.

Ted

edit - Sorry, I should have been more specific. I'm running c9x on Win XP SP3.

I already have about 40,000 models on my SD card ready for my Taranis. Just wanting to make sure I have room for another 60 on the eeprom for next weekend's flying meet.

Ted

OBTW - Any model files on the SD card would have to be copied to the eeprom to use, right?

Good news, and thanx for the quick reply. I don't think I will be able to afford to fill all of the model slots.

Ted

I'm spending a rainy and windy afternoon programming all of models in c9x in anticipation of receiving my Taranis in a couple of days. I notice that each model file is about twice the number of bytes for that model in er9x which I attribute to telemetry and a few other bits I don't have in er9x. Tha...

Maybe rdeanchurch means it's conclusive that his USB port and cable are working in answer to Rob's question. Does not mean that the driver is /installed/configured/whatever properly though as you point out.

Ted

Yikes! A shopvac will certainly do the job but that's a drink of water with a fire hose. I doubt one could regulate the pressure in a small container accurately enough to make any meaningful measurements on a vario/altimeter. Consider that near sea level a change of 1 in/hg absolute (about 1/2 psi) ...

Much appreciated Romolo.

Ted

Radio powered ON to read/write eeprom (models).

Ted

Way too hard. Keep the OEM battery intact and use as desired. Cut the balance connector off some dead/bad 2 cell LiPo and solder (or pin in) to a servo plug. Mind the polarity! Plug the balance connector into the radio. Mind the polarity! Plug the servo connector to your LiFe battery. Mind the polar...

Never be sorry for a good suggestion. I demonstrate my capability for boneheaded thoughts and actions frequently and can use all of the help I can get!

Ted

I'm sure that would work if I had an applicable folder to access, but mostly right now I am trying to delete some spurious entries that are in most of the fields and so far am unable to do that.

Thanx,

Ted

Yes, but saving changes is not the problem. I can highlight the Personal Splash Library field but can't type anything into the field. Same with the Custom TX Splash Screen field. Although I understand it is not used for Taranis, if I change or delete what is in the eEprom backup folder field it retu...

That's something else I seem to have missed somewhere in the documentation. Thanx for clearing that up!

Ted

Win XP SP3 32bit. I reloaded c9x v 1.33 just to make sure I didn't have an installation problem but there was no change to the issue.

Wow Romolo, that took you an entire day! You must be getting tired. :lol: Seriously, thanks again for your amazing response to resolve the issue. Please tell us what the problem was and what we will see different. Will there be a new contrast adjustment option, or display format change, or ??? Ted e...

Insert a plug in either jack. If the radio powers on then that's the trainer jack. If not it's the headset jack. Can't hurt anything.

Ted

OK, I do have openTx for Taranis selected, and the path is as you show except the (x86) part which is not appropriate for my directory. Does this mean I don't have to get the STM32 BOOTLOADER working with the Zadig utility, and do I even need the Zadig utility? If not, reference to it in the wiki ne...

Where is this df-util stuff coming from? I just finished reading the wiki (again) and it has instructions for downloading the Zadig utility which I did successfully. It then instructs to select STM32 BOOTLOADER and install that driver. Well, STM32 BOOTLOADER does not appear as an option even though ...

My Taranis is finally on the way, YAY! Any progress in sorting out the problems with the Preferences page?

Thanx.

Ted

I'm running c9x v 1.33 and am unable to set/change the path for Personal Splash Library, Simulator Capture Folder, Custom TX Splash Screen, or SD Structure Path. Everything else seems to work OK. Any help is appreciated.

Ted

Scott,

Would this not work with the path set to a folder in the C:\ drive?

Ted

Right, a fork means a lot of work ;) Another possibility is a branch inside an existing project! Whether a fork or a branch or whatever, one has to consider if revising the firmware to something that would be so totally different than the current structure to satisfy one or a few peoples personal c...

Mike and Bertrend's commitment to their continued future support for the 9x platform is much appreciated. There are many 9x radios currently in use and, due to their low cost and good availability, those numbers should continue to grow. Recognizing the voluntary support by all of the developers and ...

FrSky posted the first downloads for Taranis today at their site http://www.frsky-rc.com/DownloadItem.asp. The first file looks to be the latest and the baseline FW which I assume Wayne and the other prime vendors will flash to radios that have left the factory. I assume follow-on units will have th...

Scott,

I surely appreciate all of your efforts in creating these model files as well as your videos. Together with all of the work done by the FW developers this project (Taranis) is the most exciting thing I have experienced in RC radio technology.

Ted

Agreed. This "directional" thing is meaningless because of how a model may be set up. Time to move on.
