MinimOSD only shows artificial horizon.

Posted by Thurmond Moore on January 29, 2013 at 9:12pm

I have been trying to get my minimOSD Rev 1.1 from 3DR to work on the bench. The only thing showing is the Artificial Horizon. Nothing else at all. At first it showed update character set but after that only the artificial horizon. I tried it with APM 2.0 and Ardupilot 2.5. Both are the same.

Suggestions?

    Well since this thread seems to be me talking to myself I have just a tiny bit more to say. I conclude that there IS a firmware BUG in MinimOSD_20.hex that prevents the Call Sign from Appearing on screen.

    How did I arrive at this conclusion you might ask?

    I loaded MinimOSD Extra 2.1.5 Pre release Version r462.hex and the Call Sign now displays.

    To be totally fair to the other firmware I reloaded it and the Call Sign will not display.

    I reloaded r462.hex and the Call Sign returned.

    Problem corrected but not solved since I still don't know where to find the original source for MinimOSD_20.hex to look at.

    Have you set it up with the configuration utility?
