Timer in telemetry screen - bars mode

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

Which board (stock / gruvin9x / sky9x / Taranis) are you using?
Taranis
What is your openTx FW version?
r2834
What is your openTx EEPROM version?

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

In the setting of customized screens for telemetry, when the option "Bars" is 
selected and then as parameter to be displayed, you choose Timer (Tmr1 or 2), 
the max allowable value is 12m45s whereas it should allow a bigger value (at 
least 15min).

To be noted also a minor discrepency with Compagnion9X version r2319 as for 
this parameter, the value must be entered in seconds (765 max); a real minor 
issue, just to let you know.

Thanks,
Didier

Current EEPROM format can only store 256 steps of 3 seconds, which is why the 
limit is present.
Leaving this issue open as while this has been changed on current SVN with the 
new format there is still a bug in the bars setting (wraps around at 4 minutes 
and something).

Thank you for the explanation.

In fact, steps of 5s or even 10s are more than enough for my point of view; as 
far as I remember, for all FAI disciplines using a time for flight phases 
(flight preparation, flight task itself, ...), it's a "multiple" of 10s.
