Hardware
Requirements
486
or later processor
running Windows 98 or later. 1.5 MB of hard drive space, and
640K
of memory.
This
product works only
with XtremeLink®
2.4GHz
devices. Not all
XtremeLink®
devices can have their firmware upgraded. Only 3 channel
receivers and Satellite receivers officially support firmware
upgrades. However, a large number of our products do have
this
ability. If your device shows as not
having a flashable CPU,
then you will not be able to upgrade it. It
is not possible
to upgrade older non-flashable units to be a flashable type.
Overview
The
XtremeLink®
Device
Programmer (XDP for short) is a USB based device that allows various
types of communications with the
XtremeLink®
product
line. The software available here will give you powerful
tools
for helping you setup your system and diagnose any potential
installation or equipment problems.
This
product is designed for PC computers running Windows 98 through Windows
Vista operating systems. Currently, there is not a Macintosh
OS
version available. The hardware is compatible with USB 1.1
and
USB 2.0 configurations. The required cable type is a Type A
to
Mini-B, which can be purchased directly from XPS.
IT IS NECESSARY TO
INSTALL THE XTREMELINK® DEVICE
PROGRAMMER SOFTWARE BEFORE CONNECTING THE XDP
HARDWARE!
Installing
the XDP software
DO NOT PLUG IN THE XDP UNIT INTO YOUR PC BEFORE
THE SOFTWARE IS INSTALLED!
To
install the XDP
software, download the software installer below and run the installer
by double-clicking on its icon. Hint:
hold the SHIFT key
while clicking the link or using the right mouse button when clicking
the link and save the file to your desktop so that it is easy to find.

Installing
the XDP hardware
To
install the XDP
hardware, simply connect the USB cable end with the smaller mini-B
connector to the Xtreme Device Programmer, and the other end to your
PC's USB port. The first time you do this, you may see a
Hardware
Installation Wizard appear. Just select NEXT and the
driver
will automatically found and setup. You MUST have the XDP plugged in
BEFORE running any XDP related software.
Once the XDP has been plugged in,
you can then double-click on any of the icons to run that program. Only
one
program can use the XDP hardware at a time, so it is necessary to quit
one program before launching another. NOTE: If you
receive
a Windows error message about a missing or non-registered DLL "MSSTDFMT.DLL",
then go to our help page by clicking
here.
Telemetry
Station
Compatibility
All
programs compatible
with the XDP hardware can also be used with the Telemetry Station.
Program
Summary
XDP.EXE
This
program will let you update firmware (if your unit is
in-field upgradeable) as well as change the settings instead of using
the push button and LED blinks. There are also special
programming features that are not available in the push button
programming mode. The receiver and transmitter modules must
be
put into a special mode in order to be used with this
program.
See the instructions below:
Putting
your
XtremeLink® receiver or X10+ Channel Expander in programming mode
To
use the XDP.exe program,
you must first put your XtremeLink® receiver or X10+ into a special
programming mode. To do this, press and hold the programming
button while applying power to your receiver or X10+. There will be a brief
pause
and then the LED will light up orange (or yellow in the case of the X10+). Release the
programming
button and you are ready to use the XDP.exe program.
Putting
your
XtremeLink® transmitter module in programming mode
To
use the XDP.exe program,
you must first put your XtremeLink® transmitter module into a
special programming mode. To do this, press and hold the PROG
button while turning on the power. Keep holding the PROG
button
and notice the state of the LED. It will turn green, followed
by
red, and then finally turn orange. Once orange, release the
PROG
button and the transmitter module is then ready to connect to the
XDP.exe program.
If
the LED does not light
up orange, it is likely that you have older firmware that did not have
support for the XtremeLink® Device Programmer yet.
Xtreme
Power Systems would need to upgrade the receiver's firmware to enable
this support.
TXDIAG.EXE
This
program
acts as a virtual receiver, letting you see the output of your
transmitter. The signal strength is also shown.
Added
ability to monitor
the PPM signal and notify you if the pulse jumps unexpectedly.
RXDIAG.EXE
This
program acts as a
virtual transmitter, letting you control your receiver.
ANALYZER.EXE
This
program is a real time 2.4GHz spectrum analyzer.
RSSI.EXE
This
program shows the RSSI transmitter stength (requires v3.x firmware and hopping
modes 2-5).
XDP/Serial Link Firmware
Upgrades
These
firmware upgrades REQUIRE a flashable CPU and v3.0 or later firmware to
begin with.

;
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; v1.4 - 05/26/17 ; ; Corrected problem with
D1 and D2 controls being swapped. ; ;
Changed AutoMatch to use 12 groups of single
slaves instead of 5 groups of 3 ; slaves. ;
; Added step option for AutoMatch (set in Menu
Limits) to greatly improved ; matching speed.
; ; Changed some error messages to require a
response. ; ; Changed "Reset Defaults" so
that the X24 is rebooted after resetting the ;
EEPROM. ;
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; v1.5 - 06/15/17 ; ; Corrected problem with
SBUS2 input. ; ; Changed LED handling to use
DMA instead of bit-banging. ; ; Added
ability to reset the EEPROM from the emergency
Serial Link startup by ; holding SW2 for 10
seconds at power up. ;
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; v1.6 - 01/21/18 ; ; Changed JETI UDI mode
to output a straight channel map, instead of
following ; the UDI spec. ;
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; v1.7 - 05/10/18 ; ; Removed JETI UDI
support from XBUS Mode B code. ; ; Added new
code for handling JETI UDI protocols. Setting
input mode to ; JETI UDI automatically
recognizes UDI12 and UDI16 protocols, and even
; supports switching between UDI12 and UDI16 on
the fly. ; ; Spelled SRXL correctly! ;
; Added ability to reset defaults for a JETI
channel map. ; ; Corrected channel mapping
for D1/D2 and E1/E2 with default Futaba channel
map. ; ; Changed Power Off from menu to not
allow a power off when match power is ; the
power source. ; ; Removed 2nd page of
Information screen (it was redundant). ;
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; v1.8 - 05/26/18 ; ; Added option to have
LED either OFF or ON when a power-off occurs. ;
; Increased switch debounce time to 100ms minimunm
when using NONE for the ; switch delay.
; Fixed backing up from Main Menu to Channel Info
when exactly 12 channels are ; being used. ;
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v1.9 - 06/14/18 ; ; Changed power off
routine so that Match Power input has to be >4v
before ; the power off is not allowed. ;
; Added Diagnostic menu option to the System menu.;
;
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v2.0 - 09/25/18 ; ; Added support for
selecting up to 32 channels. ; Added support
for JETI ex-Bus protocol. ; Added auto-repeat
for channel number input.
;
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ; ; v2.1 - 02/20/19
; ; Re-wrote
Spektrum binding routine to delay per Horizon
spec. ; Re-wrote Spektrum channel handling per
Horizon spec. ; Added support for Spektrum
X-Plus channels. ; Added support for Spektrum
SRXL protocol. ; Corrected issue with servo
pulses being sent for unavailable servo channels.
; Renamed input mode Spektrum to Spek Sat. ;
Added support for Spektrum Satellite / SRXL to
show channels beyond channel 12.
;
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v2.2 - 10/23/19 ** INTERNAL TEST RELEASE **
; ; Added support for Graupner SUMD v3. ;
Fixed issue with Failsafe defaulting to Rx instead
of X24 in the Input Mode. ; Added ability to
display infinite number of pages of channels in
the Channel ; Info display. ; Changed
failsafe handling to now check and show all
receiver's frame loss ; instead of ignoring all
other receivers after finding the first receiver
with ; a valid packet. This helps with setup of
antennas. ; Fixed displaying Channel Info for
10/11 bit Spektrum satellite frames. ;
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v2.3 - 11/11/19 ; ; Changed failsafe
handler to no longer enable TIMER 4 Int during a
bad frame. ; Added "Advanced" menu option. ;
Added RxWindow under Advanced menu, which is the
amount of time to wait after ; the last byte of
serial data has been received, before processing
all of the ; serial packets. This allows
handling receivers that have different firmware
; or even hardware that might results in different
lengths of time to decode ; and send serial
data packets. ; Changed power off routine to
flicker STATUS LED for 1/2 second while powering
; down (instead of 2 seconds). During the power
down time the switch state is ; checked for a
change and can result in the X24 not actually
powering down in a ; case where is a switch
just happens to short out and then somehow becomes
; unshorted (which is a very remote possibility).
Standard Receivers:
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.1 - 11/06/08
;
; Changed boot error to show alternately red/orange flashing when
; receiver is powered up and a RF module failure has occurred.
;
; Fixed problem when using a transmitter with 12 or more channels
; saving failsafe positions.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.2 - 11/20/08
;
; Fixed issue when using PPM24 mode with ATVs set at 150%
;
; Improved re-sync of lost packets with short frames.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.3 - 01/01/09
;
; Removed virtual satellite receiver used for testing.
;
; Removed requirement of having a sensor plugged in to get
; signal strength and battery voltage.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.4 - 03/26/09
;
; Fixed issue with push button programming not allowing the Failsafe
; of PPM OFF.
;
; Added 2 second delay after system connects before battery voltage is
; checked. This allows systems with huge servos that need massive
; power at startup a chance to power up without tripping the low
; voltage warning.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.5 - 06/06/09
;
; Disabled telemetry output when in system is in a failsafe condition.
; The transmission time is better spent re-syncing the frequency
; hopping.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.6 - 08/12/09
;
; Added support for 12 channel simultaneous outputs. This allows you
; to use a 12 channel transmitter with multiple receivers and use
; (via channel mapping) all 12 channel outputs. Failsafe works with
; new XDP program to setup failsafes for channels 11 and 12. Note
; that the servo output range is now limited, 850us to 2250us, 100us
; shorter than the previous versions. In testing, the lowest pulse
; we encountered was Multiplex EVO at 850us to 1950us. JR and Futaba
; are both 900us or more, even with 150% throws.
;
; Re-wrote frequency hopping code for receiver. Synchronization has
; been dramatically improved, giving the overall range a two fold
; increase.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.7 - 10/21/09
;
; Cleared FIFO on startup to prevent possible firmware mismatch warning.
;
; Added support for changing the telemetry transmission ID so that
telemetry
; data can be sent back to the transmitter module directly instead of
just
; to the telemetry station. The 3rd programming mode (solid orange) is
; now used to set the "telemetry output mode". Possible options:
;
; 1 flash = Data sent to PC
; 2 flashes = Data sent to transmitter (as well as PC)
; 3 flashes = turn off telemetry output
;
; WARNING!! DO NOT send data to the transmitter if the transmitter
firmware
; is less than v3.6!
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.8 - 04/15/10
;
; Added support for failsafe packet for Graupner
telemetry radios.
;
; Added reboot notification. LED now flashes
orange if power is lost
; and restored.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.9 - 10/17/11
;
; Fixed issue with RESET routine not resetting
channel 16 in the channel
; map.
;
; Streamlined failsafe capture code.
;
; Fixed PWM OFF failsafe. Previously, all channels
after a channel set
; for a failsafe of PWM off would be skewed by
66us.
Nano I Receiver:
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.4 - 08/08/10
;
; Added support for binding as a slave receiver.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.5 - 10/25/10
;
; Added patch to fix hardware difference for binding. Now Nano
; receivers can be bound as slaves to 8/10 channel receivers.
; *NOTE: receivers MUST be 12" or more apart when
binding!
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.6 - 04/10/11 - beta
;
; Added servo reversing and offset adjustments
using the XDP.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.7 - 10/17/11
;
; Added ability to choose between PWM output or
PPM output for the servo
; output. PWM is the normal servo output. PPM
output supports devices
; that need a PPM data stream such as mikrocopters,
3-axis gyros, flight
; simulator inputs, etc. While in PPM output mode,
channels 1/3/5 output
; a positive going PPM pulse, and channels 2/4/6
output a negative going
; PPM pulse. Selection for the output mode is done
as the last step in
; the binding. Once the LED turns off, placing the
jumper back on the
; binding port will turn on the LED, also
selecting the PPM output mode.
; Otherwise, no jumper means the LED is off and
normal PWM mode (servo
; output) is used. If while in PPM output mode a
failsafe is set to
; "OFF" (no signal), a 680us short pulse is used.
This should trigger
; failsafe monitors as a standard servo pulse is
900us to 2100us.
;
; Fixed issue with RESET routine not resetting
channel 16 in the channel
; map.
;
; Changed slave binding to automatically change
the channel map of any
; slave receiver to be channels 7-12 on outputs
1-6.
;
; Streamlined failsafe capture code.
;
; Fixed PWM OFF failsafe. Previously, all channels
after a channel set
; for a failsafe of PWM off would be skewed by
66us.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.8 - 02/08/13
;
; Fixed bug in reboot blinking routine.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.9 - 09/15/13
;
; Added support for Xtreme and Xtreme/PWM mixed
outputs. The new modes
; are selected at the end of the binding routine.
When selecting the
; new mixed mode, channels 12-16 are mapped out
outputs 1-5. These can
; be changed using the XDP.
;
; Added support for channels 13-16 that were
unsupported previously.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v2.0 - 04/15/14
;
; Corrected issue with frame rates >30ms (ie.
Taranis in 16 channel
; mode).
Nano II/III Receiver:
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.0 - 03/26/13
;
; Converted code to PIC18F23K20 CPU
;
; Added XTREME servo output mode for X10 expander.
After the binding
; routine has been completed the LED will turn
off. If the jumper
; is placed back on the 'B' port, the LED will
turn back on and the
; servo output mode will change to PPM. Removing
the jumper again
; will cause the LED to flash and puts the servo
output mode into
; Xtreme. Removing power after any of these
conditions locks the
; setting.
;
; Changed RESET so that failsafes for all channels
are set to USER
; DEFINED. All channels will still HOLD last
position when a failsafe
; occurs UNTIL the failsafe positions have been
defined. WARNING!
; Be extremely careful when setting failsafe for
the throttle channel!
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.1 - 07/05/13
;
; Changed code to put the version number at the
end of FLASH memory.
;
; Fixed issue with RESET function not resetting
the failsafe map to
; USER DEFINED.
;
; Added channel matching/reversing.
;
; Added mode to output Xtreme on channel 6, and
PWM on channels
; 1-5.
;
; Added reboot warning flag bit to Xtreme mode
output flags.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.2 - 09/28/13
;
; Added support for Xtreme/PWM mixed outputs. When
selecting the
; new mixed mode, channels 12-16 are mapped to
outputs 1-5. These can
; be changed using the XDP.
;
; Added support for channels 13-16 that were
unsupported previously.
;
; Changed reboot warning flag bit assignment.
;
; Fixed channel mapping for PPM mode.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.3a - 11/03/13
;
; Added support for telemetry data. The receiver
will return RSSI.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.3b - 04/15/14
;
; Corrected issue with frame rates >30ms (ie.
Taranis in 16 channel
; mode).
;
; Re-wrote all of the servo output code to make it
output port based
; instead of channel based. Each output port can
now be individually
; set for reverse and an offset, regardless of
what channel is assigned
; to the output. This is opposite of the original
channel based
; outputs where reverse and offsets affected all
ports with the same
; channel assignment.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.4 - 05/04/14
;
; Corrected issue with short fixed frames (EVO).
X10+ Channel Expander (v1):
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.1 - 12/05/13
;
; Put back check for S.BUS header byte.
;
; Fixed problem with R7008SB receivers.
;
; Changed channel output to be port based instead
of channel based.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.2 - 01/15/14
;
; Added support for 2nd receiver in Aux port for
XtremeLink, SBUS,
; and Spektrum systems. Spektrum receivers require
the 5v to 3.3v
; adapter in the Aux port.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.3 - 04/15/14
;
; Added support for adjusting the frame rate on
the fly instead of
; hard coding it for the Xtreme protocol. This
corrected problems
; with the long frame rates (Taranis).
;
; Fixed issue with floating serial line triggering
lost frame handler
; prior to getting first valid packet.
;
; Dramatically improved dual Rx support for Xtreme
protocol.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.4 - 05/01/14
;
; Added support for DMSS X-BUS Mode A and Mode B
protocols.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v1.5 - 06/11/14 ; ; Fixed issue with
SBUS2 variable lenth frames. ;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v1.6 - 02/26/15 ; ; Added support for
Graupner/SJ HoTT SUMD protocol. ; ; Changed
primary serial port baud rate to use higher
multiplier. This ; fixes the problem with
Graupner's 115200 baud actually being 118811 ;
baud. This made no difference with Spektrum or
XBUS Mode B protocols ; because they use the
proper baud rate. ; ; Added compatibility
notice for JETI UDI protocol, which is the exact
; same format as DMSS XBUS Mode B, but with
different channels ; assignments. ;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v1.7 - 03/10/15 ; ; Added new option
for allowing 4 different Spektrum binding modes. A
; 7th color (white) was added to allow programming
values 1-4. Each ; value represents the
following: ; ; 1 = DSM2 - 1024/22ms ; 2 =
DSM2 - 2048/11ms ; 3 = DSMX - 22ms ; 4 =
DSMX - 11ms ; ; Added support for
automatically recognizing Spektrum DSMX frames.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v1.8 - 03/14/15 ; ; Added secondary
bootloader. ;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v1.9 - 03/30/15 ; ; Made changes to
the XBUS Mode A protocol to capture failsafe
frames ; and use that data for failsafe
conditions if the failsafe override ; is
disabled.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v2.0 - 09/10/16 ; ; Put SBUS
threshold limit to a minimum of 880us (lowest
possible). ; ; Added inverted poliarity SBUS
input for single receiver support using ;
primary input port. Inputs modes are now 1-8,
adding SBUS inverted as ; the 8th mode. ;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v2.1 - 06/01/17 ; ; Fixed issue with
servo outputs being shifted during a failsafe ;
condition after a failsafe channel was set to
'OFF'.
X10+ Channel Expander (v2):
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; v1.1 - 05/11/18 - Added support for JETI
UDI12 and UDI16 protocols. ; ; Removed
Xtreme (slow) input mode and replaced it ; with
JETI UDI. ; ; Converted XBUS Mode B code to
use shared code ; SRLX code (also used with
JETI UDI). ;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; v1.2 - 12/13/18 - Fixed problem with LED flashes
for push button ; programming of the channel
mapping and failsafe ; mapping.
RFU:
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v1.00 - 08/17/13 ; ; Initial release.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v1.1 - 04/15/14 ; ; Changed timer 1
to use 16 bit mode. ; ; Fixed issue with
frame rates > 32.768ms. ;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v1.2 - 05/01/14 ; ; Optimized
frequency hopping mode for longer frames ; ;
Changed back to original telemetry indentifier so
now EVO, Aurora 9, ; etc. will see the RFU like
the original 8/10 channel receivers. ;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v1.3 - 05/04/14 ; ; Corrected some
issues with long fixed frames (EVO). ; ;
Fixed voltage for telemetry output. ;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v1.4 - 05/17/15 ; ; Enabled the
DivBee's PA for telemetry data.
Satellite
receiver:
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.0 - 09/16/07
;
; Initial test version for 16 channel receiver.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.0b - 11/01/08
;
; Changed hardware to LDO regulator version.
; Changed LED and telemetry port input and output pins.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.1 - 04/29/09
;
; Added failsafe routine for satellite receiver so that no data is
; passed to the main receiver when there is a complete loss of data.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.2 - 05/22/09
;
; Fixed bug with learning multiple satellite receivers.
;
; Improved hopping re-synchronization after long loss of signal.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.3 - 08/12/09
;
; Re-wrote frequency hopping code for receiver. Synchronization has
; been dramatically improved, giving the overall range a two fold
; increase.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v1.4 - 11/28/09
;
; Removed LED blinking debug mode.
Transmitter
modules:
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.1 - 11/06/08
;
; Changed frame data to include hop mode type to make telemetry
; support easier.
;
; Defined new transmitter IDs for Graupner MX-16 and XD-6 radios
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.2 - 12/06/08
;
; Added 10ms delay between INIT and REQINFO commands to
; compensate for receivers that used the old (slower) data rates.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.3 - 04/10/09
;
; Added support for new flashing setup.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.4 - 04/13/09
;
; Fixed startup delay for PROFI and other transmitters requiring this
support
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.5 - 06/13/09
;
; Made lock command ignore all other 802.15.4 devices on startup.
;
; Fixed issue with LED not returning to normal state after attenuating
; the power when no receiver is connected (hopping modes 2-5).
;
; Changed frame rate calculation to filter PCM. This is the first step
; in supporting PCM intput.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.6 - 10/26/09
;
; Complete re-write of the PPM pulse capturing code. It was possible
that
; if a transmitter had a spurious PPM pulse that the frequency hopping
; could become out of sync, resulting in an immediate failsafe. Invalid
; pulses are ignored, frame discarded, and last know good data is used
; instead. This keeps the hopping fully synchronized.
;
; Cleared FIFO on startup to prevent possible firmware mismatch warning.
;
; Added preliminary telemetry support using internal port connector.
This
; provides the Rx voltage and RSSI information.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.7 - 11/16/09
;
; Fixed bug with beta release of transmitter output code when using 9
; or more channels.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.8 - 01/04/10
;
; Added storage of PANID during binding to allow resetting of XBEE
module
; with immediate reconnection. This will eliminate bad resets due to low
; power (dead transmitter batteries or loose module pins).
;
; Removed XBEE reset routine as it is no longer necessary.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v3.9 - 06/24/11 - EVO ONLY!
;
; Added support MLink emulation. This requires the extra wire
; from our module's telemetry interface.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; v4.0 - 05/04/14 - JR MODULE ONLY
;
; Changed PPM capture routine to set captured flag
at the start of the
; next PPM frame, instead of after capturing the
data. This fixes the
; issue with variable frame rates (Taranis
issues).
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v4.1 - 05/12/14 ; ; Added support for
XJT D16 mode. ; ; Changed push button
programming so that the 3rd option with JR ;
modules is PPM/XJT selection. 1 flash = PPM, 2
flashes = XJT. ;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v4.2 - 07/20/14 ; ; Re-wrote
interrupt capture code to support XJT mode,
ignoring partial ; packets and no longer
requiring either of the flags to always be ; a
certain value (fix for 'tick' issue)? ;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------
; ; v4.3 - 05/05/18 ; ; Re-wrote XJT
capture code to handle v2.1.0 and later OpenTx
firmware. ; ; Fixed age old problem with
slow binding (disable interrupts during ;
binding) ; ; Added reset logic when input
voltage to Tx is below the proper ; threshold
(should not occur unless Tx battery is dead, which
won't ; matter anyways!)
XDP/Scanner
History
08/03/08 - v1.5.0
Fixed problem with config not saving language types other than English.
Updated installer program to fix installer error. Depending the version
