I think we are going to cross post

I moved The FPort wire to TX2



And predictably, in BF Serial has moved to UART2 and smart audio has disappeared. And UART1 is free

So how do we get Smart Audio back on UART2 ?

Assuming you are going to connect the Caddx Turtle to the RX1 and TX1 pads, and the Smart Audio wire to RX2 (via a pin in the connector from what you are saying), run the following commands in the CLI...

What Snow says should work.

One of my earlier post disappeared, must have previewed instead of posted

I had done this


But had assigned softserial1 to A02  ( I need two TX's ? Right )

I ran Snows Cli commands and totally lost UART2 TX for Fport  ?

All you are trying to do is to remap an MCU pin/pad to be a SoftSerial TX pad. It can be any pin/pad you aren't using (subject to some restrictions), and doesn't necessarily need to be an existing UART TX pin/pad.

Run the following CLI commands and check to see if UART2 has re-appeared. This should re-instate the original RX2 resource while also ensuring that the other resources are still remapped as before...

Thanks Snow
But isn't it like 2:30 in the morning for you ? Dude , go to bed.

I'll see if that worked tomorrow


Scott

Yep, that looks like it worked. Yeah, 2:40am here now and I need to get up for work in a little over 4 hours. But that just seems to be the usual daily routine for me

I just double checked your original dump, and what you have should work.

Wow, I lost another post from this morning

Anyway, no joy. No radio control, no sticks no switches in BF. R-XSR is bound ( solid green and solid blue leds ) I have RSSI and vbat on the QX7.
I think the problem is that Smart Audio is internally connected to TX2




Suggestions ?

Before we start relocating wires and/or remapping anything, if you temporarily remove the SmartAudio (green?) wire from the 4-pin plug, do you then see stick and switch movements in BFC?

I did not have the VTX plugged in when I tested it. I just put it there for the picture so it was obvious for all.
The only thing plugged in at the time was USB for BF and the R-XSR.

OK, so that means there no actual cross-interference from a SmartAudio signal is causing the issue. I need to leave the office now so I'll have a think on the way home unless Voodoo or someone else has some ideas and manages to come up with a solution or some other suggestions.

Thanks Snow I really appreciate it !

There are S5 and S6 pads available, can those be used as RX & TX for Camera control ?

Then I could put Fport back on TX1 and leave Smart Audio on TX2 ( we know that worked )

Scott

Instead of using the port on the bottom left, try soldering your F. Port to the TX2 pad. Let's see if this works.I want to bypass the wire jump.

Thanks Voodoo

Just to be clear, you are saying remove the yellow wire ( FPort ) from the plug on the lower left from the R-XSR
And remove the yellow jumper wire from TX2
Then connect the yellow FPort wire from the plug directly to TX2 ?
