Screen blanks with Image 22304. #361

Open RN-Cook opened 8 months ago

RN-Cook commented 8 months ago

I ran OV image 17119 for several years (on a Stefly kit with sensorboard). I had a problem which seemed to relate to cockpit temperature. On cool days all was OK. On hot days the audio produced 2 or 3 loud clicks per second and the vario tones were strange. As I got higher into cooler air the problem often cured itself. I put up with this.

I have now updated to Image 22304 and have a new more serious problem (plus the old one) The screen blanked after about 3 hours flight and could only be restored by turning it off and on again. After about 30 mins it did it again.

I repeated this in a ground test. The air temperature was 27/28 C. The speaker started clicking immediately. I left the glider for just over 3 hrs When I returned, the screen had blanked out (dark grey with a slightly lighter stripe at the top). The clicking was still there. Blowing in the TE tube showed the audio vario was not working, and the OV did not respond to the stick-top controller. As in the air I had to switch the OV off then on again. After about 30 mins it blanked out again.

Anyone got any suggestions please? Is there a fix? Should I go back to some earlier build?

ADDED LATER I have just realised that 22304 is the pre-release version. I should read instructions more carefully !! I will download the released version and see how it behaves.

@RN-Cook if you are keen on trying the latest pre-release I can build one for you if you tell me which flavor (display) you need. I'd be interested to hear how it behaves. There are some significant fixes since 22304 which should apply to your issues.

Hi Ronald

Thank you. I would be happy to try it. I built my OpenVario from a Stefly kit with a 7" screen (not a touch screeen) with Stefly sensor board and stick-top remote. Is this all the information you need?

Regards Rob Cook
