OpenXsensor not working on Frsky Archer receivers?

Maybe someone has an answer for this.

I am having difficulties getting OpenXsensor to work on the new Archer receivers.
For example the arduino I use is a Nano + MS5611

I created a configuration using the configurator tool supplied with OXS

Hooking it up to a X6R or X8R, I get perfect readings.

Hooking the sensor up to a R10 Archer receivers.. nothing, just nothing.
When I hook up any other Frsky sensor to the R10 everything works fine.

There is a thread in a German FrSky forum about this.
https://frsky-forum.de/index.php?threa ... C3%A4nger/
And it seems, there are no issues.

It appears you need to register to read that forum (and it also appears to be in German!).
Could you summarise what is on the forum please?

Try using as SPort I/O signal. I added a change that uses the analog comparator on the input so the oXs recognises a lower voltage as a logic high (similar voltage to real SPort sensors).

Hi Mike, ENGEL is Premier Dealer Germany and runs that support forum.

oXs ist NOT FrSky, so there is not much there about oXs in conjunction with FrSky. But the question come up in that forum and 6 users answered, no issue experienced with Archer RX.

Personally I can not say anything about the question posted here, I stick with ACCST and my components here run fine with oXs.

Hi
I do use about seven different OXS sensors with Access (GPS, MU-6050, MS5611, GY86(clone) and a RPM(gas-ignition)).
I didn't find any problems concerning Access.

The problem I had, had to do with 8Mhz arduino's and sensors that act more then 1 sensor.
Using nano's solved all problems.. I suppose 16mhz Pro Mini's will work fine too.

look here:

but this works only some minutes for me.
