PPM sum activation ?

[TOURNEUR]

HI everybody
I have buyed a 'hextronik nanowii v01' for a specific use for underwater rov.

I would like to use the ppm signal to control my servos through the nanowii module .

When i connect my ppm sum signal on the module, I see the 6 virtual servos on 'Multiwiiwin gui' which moving.

But when i disconnect it from my computer to use it in standalone no pwm signal appear on the servos ports .


The ppm sum function is it normally deactivate ,when we buy one for the first time ?

Could I activate this ppm function through Multiwiiwin gui ?

Or do I need realy use arduino gui with a new multiwii firmware modified ?


Thanks for any help

Yes, PPM Sum can only be activated during compiling. So you will have to modify config.h in the source code and flash the modified firmware.

Hi ,Lutzb

In first, many apologize, for my late reply to your reply .

Ok , now i understand more why certain functionality don't work.

Now ,i need to understand how I need to program the multiwii, on arduino ide...

Thanks for your reply Lutzb

Hi ,

I had entering in the config.h mode of multiwii and selected ppm sum .

But I obtain a fixed square signal, on all servos ports not a pwm signal ,proper to control any servos .

I asked myself ,if it possible to configure a nanowii as a very simple ppm sum to servos controler .

Because, the multiwii boards where built to control esc motor ,start with a minimum throttle ...

But can we configured this board like my desired configuration....


Thanks
