er9x Frsky firmware, What is displayed?

Posted by Anderl on December 20, 2012 at 9:31am

Hi all,

I want to use the new capabilities (thenks Jani) of the JD-IOboard to transmit the telemetry to my Flysky er9x firmware through the DJT-D8R-II plus combo.

Therefore, I'll update the firmware to the er9x frsky. Furthermore, I want to become the info displayed on the standard screen. Here.

Question: Does someone knows if all the info transmitted can be displayed? In other words, Does someone knows, how many screens has the er9X-Frsky firmware for display the telemetry data?

Thanks in advance,

Anderl

Just curious, did you ever get this to work?

I am have desperately tried to get the same solution going.. with no luck.

The ioBoard firmware is just jumping the telemetry inputs everywhere...

The GPS data doesn't come in....

Do you have the same issues?

There seems to be an option for telemetry conversion of the 9X with the DJT (and also the DHT) module where you don't need a RS232 to TTL level converter or any other board:

I captures the TTL signals before they are converted.

I've just converted my 9x radio to use telemetry from the FrSky module. I used this board for the conversion http://www.smartieparts.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&a..., I also have the SmartieParts programming board so no soldering required.

The Open9X firmware has three screens. One with ADC1,ADC2, TX RSSI & RX RSSI, and the other two can be customized.

I've ordered an Arduino pro mini, so I'll post back when I have it working.

depending on the sensors you have it will show you

Temp (from the baro)

Altitude

Voltage (requires sensor)

GPS coordinates

if you do not require the LED control function of the JD-IO board, a simple arduino pro mini also does the job btw... :-)
