Public Beta (2021 12 03)

Post by VK3KYY » Thu Dec 02, 2021 9:22 pm

Unfortunately the last public beta still has a reboot problem for some people.

At the moment we do not know what is causing the problem, except the radio appears to be unable to read the RSSI from the RF chip, which seems to cause the firmware to freeze, which then causes a reboot.

Because the reboot under these conditions is caused by the firmware, we have added an option to disable the CPU Watchdog Timer , (WDT), so that if the radio freezes it should not reboot, and operators will be able to perhaps observe what was on the screen when the radio froze, or possibly report on whether the radio can still receive even if the User Interface has frozen


Could anyone who has the "Settings update" problem, or any problems with hotspot mode, or operating with TS and CC filters enabled at the same time, please try this version

Anyway, who has experienced the "Settings Update" crash, should also change the WDT setting in General options, to turn this feature off.

After turning the WDT off, the radio should be power cycled, i.e turned off and on again, to ensure this setting is saved.

Saludos y gracias de nuevo por el trabajo que estás realizando. Te comento, he estado instalando todas las versiones que estás lanzando, bueno es cierto que normalmente lo tengo anclado en un TG y no se ha reiniciado con ninguna de las versiones, acabo de instalar la versión de hoy, ten lo que pasa, gracias de nuevo.
73 por Pablo.
Por favor, ¿puede explicar el problema con más detalle?
Saludos de nuevo, seguramente no me explique bien, quería decir, que no he tenido, ni tengo ningún problema.
Gracias, 73 de Pablo.

Translation....


Greetings again, surely I did not explain well, I wanted to say that I have not had, nor do I have any problems.
Thanks, Pablo 73.

After uploading the version on 03/12/2021 - HotSpot, during a long speech (broadcasting) from my website, there is digitization and 1% Loss on the Dashboard - it was not on other firmware versions. Let me point out that the WDT function in the Hot Spot is set to Off.

I did not notice any other faults (I did not find it)
