9XR-Pro can't switch it OFF, with a Modul allways ON!!

Post by Helle »

Hy,

now I have a 9XR- Pro, Testing the Handling and ersky9x
some errors at German Menue UI, but english is ok.

All seams ok

Then I put a Flysky Modul FS-TM002 into the socket,
Protokoll PPM 22,5m 300us, 8ch, positv
bind, all ok, servo works

Then I would switch off, but nothing happens
Power switch ON or Power switch OFF
the 9XR-Pro is allways ON
What the hell is that??

Then I put the Modul out and I can Switch ON and OFF as before!

And no, dont say its the modul!!
I use it at 3 Transmitters and have tested it again there
9XR
TH9
Taranis
and all works fine.

9XR-Pro, Power switch, I can switch ON
but I can not switch OFF with this Modul

What the hell is that??

Any Idea?

But it is caused by the module!
We found this during development. It is caused by the hardware of the Turnigy/Flysky module passing a voltage from the PPM logic input back out the power pin when trying to power off.

I found a software fix, which was released in r203 of ersky9x. I think HK didn't update their initial stock they had built and have shipped them with r202.

The easiest fix would be to update your firmware to r205, the latest released.
(The fix is to drive the PPM signal as an open drain (open collector) output).

r204 is the latest formal release. I'm working on quite a few improvements. I'm posting test versions with these here: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4676#p65894 as I go along.

Not all changes apply to the 'PRO, some are only on the SKY board and some are for the Taranis.

List of current changes:

Extra 3-POS switches support
Jump to EXPO/DR editing from mix editor
DSM telemetry fades/losses/holds monitoring
Add 57600 baudrate to bluetooth
Add bluetooth to trainer mapping option
Sticky throttle switch handles trainer throttle
Trainer weight resolution improved and more switches allowed
From R204, DSM Rx number always sent as 1
X9D PLUS supported
Add persistant total ON time
Add model specific backlight switch
Start of MODEL SETTINGS index menu
Add Timer countdown and minute beep, model dependant, on both timers.
Improve the operation of 'EXIT' in the SETTINGS menu.
Taranis version re-codes switches!
Add 1-shot and v~=ofs to custom switches
Fix custom switch as timer glitch.
