How to flash frsky Sensor hub with ftdi modul

Post by acerquax »

Hello,
I am not yet able to flash my old frsky sensor hub with an ordinary ftdi USB/rs232 modul.
Maybe there is a "strange" protocol that you should have to use/buy the original frsky flash Modul???!!!
:( :lol:
I see no UID number in the frsky flash program,
the configuration of the ftdi modul with WIN XP is OK!!!!!
Thanks in advance.

You need an adapter that uses RS232 levels, not TTL ones. Or a TTL one that has both signals inverted.

THX Kilrah,

ehm...
RS232 level is around zero +3-15V to -3 - -15V..
ftdi goes from 5V to 0V and vv.

..uups..to fast on the send button!!
Anyway..to invert TTL means only to do 5V>>>OV...OV >>>5V...
I did some 7404 Inverter to the output of the ftdi232...successless... :shock: :(

I could fix this problem not with a 7404 inverter but with a RS 2323 level converter. THX anyway! :D 8-)
