In the top-section of hardware.ini (above [modules])

I placed TXID at very top of hardware.ini

txid=XXXXXXXX
;Only useful for transmitters with an after-market vibration motor

thanks thanks
No problem with the devo 7e but big problem with the 12s, I can no longer pair any receiver and can no longer access the file "hardware ini".
I will do a complete reset because I can no longer delete this file alone ;-(
Has anyone had this problem ??

sometimes on the devo12/12s if you are in usb mode and connected to the computer if you just power off or unplug it will corrupt the hardware.ini file..It's happened to me several times the only way to avoid this from happening is when you are ready to disconnect from the computer right click the drive letter for the devo and select "eject" before you unplug ...Since i have been doing it this way it has not corrupted my hardware file anymore..

Hopefully you made a full backup copy of your files and all you have to do is right click the drive and select "Repair Drive" then replace the hardware file with the one you hopefully have saved as backup...

Thanks magic_marty ,It works, but I have to rebind all receivers

I thought I could share my module of telemetry with all my models of aircraft with the same identifier but it does not work, while with the protocol dsm2 and the telemetry "orange" yes ???

If you change TXID, you need rebind all your models. You need rebind your telemetry module also. It will work with one model only. If you want to use telemetry module with several models, you need bind all these models and telemetry module with equal Fixed ID.

I can use my telemetry module on all my models using the same identifier. Thanks
Another problem has happened, all the rotary switches do not work anymore !!!

Don't forget to calibrate all AUX pots along with sticks.

Any user defined txid greater than 0x7fffffff is not working correctly due to a typo/mistake in config/hardware.c on line 107:

is:
Transmitter.txid = strtol(value, NULL, 16);

should be:
Transmitter.txid = strtoul(value, NULL, 16);

Transmitter.txid is defined as u32 in config/tx.h line 90.

@gdenton: good catch! Please go ahead and make a PR on Github for the fix, I don't want to take credit for this

Unless you don't want to register with GitHub.

I opened an issue as I don't know anything about PR's, thanks Moeder.

Does it really matter?
While the txid is indeed an u32, you can only give 6 digits of txid on the GUI, which is way under 0x7fffffff...

It's for hardware.ini processing.

        if(MATCH_KEY("txid")) {
            Transmitter.txid = strtol(value, NULL, 16);
        }
        return 1;

But, in my case it works fine with txid=FABEA2E6

Oops, you are right, of course.
I don't remember what number I used for the txid, but I will check it later...

BTW what are the symptoms of "not working correctly" in case of a txid over 0x7fffffff?

Strtol returns LONG_MAX for all values above that, so all txid higher than 0x7fffffff will be the same, which could mess up things with two transmitters using the same txid although users think they use different ones.

txid=7FFFFFF instead FABEA2E6

I see.
It well deserves a patch, however those who used larger txids need to rebind all their receivers if I'm not mistaken...

Unfortunately, yes. I see no other solution to this.

Phew, luckily I used smaller txid...

I've changed it in the code.
