Softserial leverages spare rc pins. This setup requires 'feature ppm' with ppm capable receiver hooked up to rc pin 1
Serial Interface | Rx | Tx |
---|---|---|
UART2 | RC3 | RC4 |
Softserial #1 | RC5 | RC6 |
Softserial #2 | RC7 | RC8 |
Enable HoTT telemetry on softserial port 1 with the following commands:
feature PPM
feature SOFTSERIAL
feature TELEMETRY
set softserial_baudrate=19200
set telemetry_port=1
set telemetry_provider=1
Connect Graupner HoTT receiver as follows
HoTT telemetry TX/RX -> Serial RX (connect directly)
Serial TX -> 1N4148 Diode -(| )-> HoTT TX/RX (connect via diode)
Receiver Ground -> Flight Controller Ground
The diode should be arranged to allow the data signals to flow the right way
-(| )- == Diode, | indicates cathode marker.
As noticed by Skrebber the GR-12 (and probably GR-16/24, too) are based on a PIC 24FJ64GA-002, which digitals pins are 5V tolerant.
Note: The softserial ports are not listed as 5V tolerant in the STM32F103xx data sheet pinouts and pin description section. Verify if you require a 5v/3.3v level shifters. The softserial port should not be inverted.
feature PPM
feature SOFTSERIAL
feature TELEMETRY
set softserial_baudrate=9600
set softserial_1_inverted=1
set telemetry_port=1
set telemetry_provider=0
Connect FrSky receiver as follows
Telemetry port RXD -> Serial TX (connect directly)
Receiver Ground -> Flight Controller Ground
