User Guide: FrSKY Sensor Hub

Carsten Boehme edited this page Feb 5, 2014 · 15 revisions

FrSKY Sensor Hub enables your board to send UAVO data to a FrSKY receiver. This a replacement of real FrSKY Sensor Hub hardware.

To get the module working follow these steps:

  1. Create a suitable connection cable with TTL<=>RS232 converter
  2. Connect RS232 side to the FrSKY receiver.
  3. Connect TTL side to a free uart
  4. Map this uart to the FrSKY sensor hub module in hardware settings
  5. Enable module in module settings
  6. Restart your flight control

The module will send this data:

  • altitude (variable 'Alt')
  • temperatures (from baro and from accelerometer, variables 'T1' and 'T2')
  • x, y and z acceleration (variables 'AccX', 'AccY' and 'AccZ')
  • current, voltage and cell voltages (if battery module is enabled, variables 'Curr' and 'Cels')
  • gps data (if gps module has a fix, variable 'GPS Alt' latitude, longitude)

Using GPS coordinates in Google Maps

  1. in Taranis radio setup set 'GPS coordinate format' to NMEA

  2. Taranis will display coordinates like this 54° 12.3456 N 12° 12.3456 E

  3. Enter them in Google Maps or Earth as 54.123456, 12.123456 to find the location
