TTGO T-beam upgrade #52
Comments
For a basic setup, you don't need to do anything special at all. The only thing that should be configured: enter the hex ID of your T-Beam in the ownship Mode-S exclusion list, because the SDRs will receive your T-Beam signal as well and show it as traffic if not excluded |
Thanks! will get it tested this afternoon and come back with results. |
Just tested and no success yet. TTGO T-Beam board is newer edition with offset antenna to the right. Used correct data USB cable to connect with Pi board and TTGO has blue led and red led blinking so it has gps lock. Stratux status page: GPS hardware: FLARM (Not communicating) Board came with SoftRf already preinstalled but after few tries , I did flash it with current SoftRF and still no connection. |
This indicates that Stratux has successfully detected that you connected a T-Beam. Good sign.
If you know how, you could connect to the Stratux via SSH, run "stxstop" to stop the Stratux service, then cat /dev/flarm to check if NMEA is correctly arriving. |
Cable is fine as i did used it with it to connect to PC directly so it works. just tried SSH cat /dev/flarm - after rows with signs were showing in pulsing manner until i did dissconect cable from T-Beam , looks it talks fine |
You need to run "sudo -s" first to become root. |
worked with sudo -s ,but just one line with nonsense root@raspberrypi:/home/pi# cat /dev/flarm Also tried to log in directly onto t-beam and run app on tablet. It works and shows gps. |
Ok, that is not correct. Did you try the other steps?
|
Ok just went on SoftRF web interface and in NMEA output you can choose -off GDL90: off So its missing USB therefore it dont work I presume |
Yes, it is the same device (mine is rev 0.7, yours is rev 1.0, but that shouldn't make a difference). |
Updated to eu018. pi@raspberrypi:~ $ dmesg | grep ttyUSB pi@raspberrypi:~ $ head -4 /dev/ttyUSB0 |
I have the feeling that this is baud rate related.. |
tried and but still same problem. pi@raspberrypi:~ $ stty -F /dev/flarm 38400 raw -echo |
Sorry, do all this as root please (sudo -s first). |
I tought it worked ,after i did run stxstart , checked status still not communicating, so i did reboot with t-beam plugged ,but sitll no joy. |
Would you mind joining the Stratux Slack group? I'll DM you there - makes it a bit simpler to communicate directly. You can invite yourself here: http://slack.stratux.me/ |
Will be fixed in next version with proper baud auto detection. |

Description of your issue:
Hi
With new update I decided to buy TTGO T-beam board and BMP280 as would like to try it out. Don't think many people has done such an upgrade so guide is no were to be found. Can you shed some light how to get this working together? I presume t-beam need to be loaded with OGN tracker, than pairing it with BMP280? . Will it just work after plugin into stratux usb.....well i think it need a bit of tweaking?
Any sugesstions will be great!
