Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Using PPM signal from a Graupner HoTT receiver?

Hello

I have written the paparazzi wiki page, but didn't have had the chance to test it, I'm sorry.  (i own a mx-12 and gr-12, i took the information from the graupner manual)

I connected my logic analyzer (chinese saleae clone) to channel 4, 5 and 6.

Result from the logic analyzer:

Period of a normal channel is 20ms (ch0 and ch1 -> channel 4 and 5 on receiver)
Period of the sum stream with SUMDFS06 10ms ???

With setting SUMO 06 I think it should work, signal looks good.
Look at the three screenshots: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/zx0ogxn6qv16ibq/I9yLzJR3nw

Sorry, i have no idea why SUMO 06 looks so much different to SUMDFS06, i thought SUMDFS06 is the right setting.

I will ask graupner what SUMD does exactly, maybe they can give me a answer.

Use SUMO 06 and channel 6 as ppm channel (this channel should be the SUMO) (I will correct the wiki)

cheers
Marius

Hello all (and a happy new year!),

The past couple off weeks were too boring and I decided to pull my Paparazzi hardware (Umarin v2) out of the box and to give it another shot. Finally things started to come to life and the servos now respond on movements of the sensors (mode 1). Woohoo!

So far I was using an PPM encoder board (8 channel radio.xml setup). Now I found this article on the Wiki about switching the output of an Graupner Hott Receiver to PPM (http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/Graupner_HOTT_setup). That would mean I don't need the encoder board and the bunch of connecting cables. Less parts = less trouble. At least that is what I am hoping.

Following the article, I set the receiver output to "SUMDFS06" (six channel of my MX-12 model), changed the radio.xml to six channels and connected the cable from port 1 or port 6 (tried both) of the receiver to the AP but no dice. It is still logging "RC 0,0,0,0,0,0".

I mean, I still could go back using the encoder board. But I thought I'd ask here first. Has anyone had some experience with that? Is this worth pursuing?

My radio.xml (the last two channels are commented out):
