Configuring Battery Monitor

Posted by Rick M on July 29, 2012 at 11:13pm

Hi. I've just installed an APM2 running v2.5 in my plane, replacing the APM1 that was in there before.

I've got a 45 A Atto sensor hooked up. In APM Planner v1.2 mav 1.0, I have Monitor set to 4, and I try to set Sensor to 1. But it keeps getting set back to 0. There's no UI for saving the setting.

Is this something that gets written to the APM2, or is it a setting in APM Planner? How can I get it to stick?

Thanks.

    this will be fixed in the next planner version.

    Me too. Also, I am getting ginormous current reading so the % goes down by the second. Anyone have an answer?

    I've seen the same problem - APM Planner v 1.2.4 mav 1.0, set up the attopilot voltage/current sensor version, input the measured BEC voltage, go to flight data to check its working, gives a reasonable voltage, back to configuration and the setting has reverted to 0.

    The voltage is still being displayed, so it works, but isn't confidence-inspiring.
