i2c to serial #5

Hi

I discovered that using i2c in arducopter occurs signals spark frequently. Would you write the code to change tfmini-plus i2c back to serial?

Million thanks

I'm sorry to hear that you're having a problem. In the setup() section of the example code, TFMPI2C_example.ino, there are several example commands. Please add the following command to the list:

    // - - Set Serial Mode - - - - - - - - - - -
    printf( "Set Serial Mode: ");
    if( tfmP.sendCommand( SET_SERIAL_MODE, 0))
    {
        printf( "passed.\r\n");
    }
    else tfmP.printReply();

In my experience, the TFMini-Plus device will switch immediately to UART (serial) communication mode. A following SAVE_SETTINGS command is not necessary.

I hope that helps. Please let me know.
