10.6. FrSky
As of firmware version v1.13 the GPS-Logger 2 can also be used with FrSky telemetry. Only
receivers with the new “S.Port” connection are supported.
The GPS-Logger 2 is in this case connected like any other sensor to the sensor slot on the
receiver and transmits the following data:
Height (H
ö
he)
GPS Height (NN) (GPS H
ö
he (NN)) = GH
ö
h
Vario = VGes
Acceleration X,Y,Z (Beschleuningung X,Y,Z) = BesX, BesY, BesZ
GPS coordinates (GPS Koordinaten)
Speed (geschwindigkeit) = Gesc
Direction to the model (richtung zum Modell) = Rich
GPS time (GPS Zeit) = Zeit
Distance (Dist) is calculated in the transmitter from the starting coordinates and the current
coordinates. If the value after switching on is not correct, it helps to turn the transmitter off for
a time and on again.
The GPS-Logger 2 responds to the freely chosen sensor address 0x45. No more sensors
can be connected occupying the same address. For the free addresses additional sensors
can easily be connected to the receiver with a V cable in parallel with the GPS-Logger 2.
We tested the connection with the Taranis transmitter firmware “opentx-r2940” and the X8R
receiver.
10.6.1. Presentation on the Transmitter
All values can be
shown directly on
the display. The
order on the display
is freely selectable.
10.6.2. Alarms
In principle with the Taranis the alarms are defined in the transmitter. The GPS-Logger 2 has no way
to directly trigger an alarm on the transmitter. All alarm thresholds and the Vario tone are thus
specified in the transmitter.
