Btw, in the manual for T8SG is quite nothing about the telemetry for AFHDS 2A ....

Good morning and thanks for your effort

I will make the test at noon ...

The sensors are FS-CVT-01 Voltage and FS-CAT01 Altitude for AFHDS 2A.

Thanks for all the information.

The code in the 9e9beec build didn't handle the telemetry type sent by the altitude sensor so it might be interfering with the voltage data. The code to handle the newer sensors is different so need to figure out first if it handles the voltage okay. I make a new test build ( 77bfa71 ). Please try this with just the voltage sensor, and then add the altitude sensor.

What are the model numbers of the sensors you have? Want to be sure I understand what data to expect.

The value in row 8 is a link quality indicator. A description of all the rows is in the manual.

Notice:
The voltage 11.6V in row 6 is in column Bat

I have to confirm it.
In the 9e9beec NightyBuild the Voltage sensor works well.
In Telemetry monitor:
Row 1 60d 5.08V 11.6V
Row 2
Row š
Row 4
Row 5 11.6V
Row 6
Row 7
Row 8 100
Row 9

The value in Row 8 decreases when moving away from receiver - perhaps percentage of signal strenght.
But the Altitude sensor is not recognized.

If the altitude sensor is connected, than :

Row 1 60d 5.08V
Row 2 22C

Row 6 plus or minus value Altitude
Row 7
Row 8 100
Row 9

Thats all at this moment.

Hello,
it looks like in both Test builds the voltage sensor dissapears ...
This is a pitty, battery voltage in model is important to know ...

Actually two findings:
Looks like the voltage sensor doesn´t appear in Telemetry monitor at all...
When the altitude sensor was alone and after a time was stable on 250m, when I connect the voltage sensor, the value starts to decrease and later it rises again.
I will try to go one or two steps back, to see, if the voltage sensor wil appear in the telemetry monitor.

Good morning and thanks for the fast reaction
First results:
After start it displays Minus 104m, after 20 minutes it stabilized on Plus 10-14m
I move the sensor one level in the house down, the value started to rise, after five minutes it was over Plus 470 m ....
Going back upstairs the value starts to decrease, it even falls bellow zero, actually after 15 minutes it is on Minus 170m ...

Till now it was tested with only one sensor.
Now I will connect the Voltage sensor and we will se, what happens ...

regards
Pavel

Ooops. I've uploaded versions for the t8sg and t8sg_v2.

Unfortunatelly I was right, there is problem with display.
Could You prepare and upload also version for V2, but not Plus, please ?
Many thanks for your effort in advance
Pavel

I am not sure if the version Plus would work, while those Carbon Plus version have normal display ....
I will try it, but the last trial I did with non Plus version.

Hello, thanks for fast response .
The displayed data came from receiver ( RSSI and battery voltage ) and from altitude sensor ( temperature and altitude )
I am going to connect also the Voltage sensor, which I have, and we will see the influence.
Should I upgrade to the new Test build now and after the upgrade make the test with the connected second sensor, or it would be interesting for you to make the test with the old one Testbuild?

It's encouraging anything is displayed

Is the temperature accurate? The numbers sound reasonable.

The information at the link is about the interface from the sensor to the rx, which is different from the over-the-air information.

I did spot a bug that would occur if more than one sensor was sent in a packet so that might be what's happening. Updated test build is available ( 908fa3a ).

Now we have 23 degrees and minus 7887 m .
Physical position still the same ...

After last 30 minutes the temperature raised to 24 degrees and the altitude value is changed to minus 7972m.

Do You have seen this?

Could it be helpfull?

Hello,
in 30 minutes without moving the sensor the value changed to minus 7953m, temperature is the same.

Hello and thanks for the help.
I did the upgrade twoo years ago last time and I didn´t remember the right way...
So now the Test build is installed and some simple tests are done.
In Telemetry monitor on position 2 there is the temperature shown, it works fast.
On position 6 there is shown the altitude, but this is not working well now.
I live 230 m above the sea level.
When the sensor was positioned outside, the temperature fall down to 4 degrees of Celsius and on position 6 was shown value - 5600m approx. ( Minus 5600m)
Moving the sensor inside the house, temperature changed to 19 degrees and altitude to Minus 8000 approx ( in reality the altitude was the same ), moving the sensor upstairs one level, the temperature changes to 23 degrees and altitude to Minus 8135 meters.
What I am missing is the possibility to set up the altitude to zero, to measure the height of the plane above the ground.
So this is first report )
Have a nice day
Pavel

The 408f8c0 version is the current latest, not the telem_flysky version. After the telem_flysky version is installed the display should show 5284cc1.

Copying the files is the second step of the installation process. First step is installing the firmware (the .dfu file). See the installation steps at this link .; You don't need to copy the files again, just install the .dfu firmware.

Hello,
I did these steps:
1) From the Tx i copied all files to the notebook.
2) I unzip the downloaded file from your Test build.
3) I errased all files from Tx
4) I copied the test files to the transmitter.
5) I copied to Tx my model file, which is using the Flysky receiver with telemetry.
5) I asked Windows to remove the drive and after confirmation I close the USB drive on the Tx and disconnect it from notebook.

When I started the Tx and bind it with Rx, I didn´t see any change in telemetry ...
To be sure, I am using AFHDS 2A protocol.
What is curious, looking About Deviation shows version -408f8c0 .... Is it OK?
Maybe I am making something wrong ....
Any advice is welcome
Thanks
Pavel
