@Alex-Kushleyev Found the reason why it was skipping. In /px4-firmware/src/lib/parameters/CMakeLists.txt there is a line that skips all modules that match 'pwm_out'. I was able to disable that for PCA9685. Once I disabled the module.yaml file being skipped it worked. No need for the .c file (which makes sense, that is just the old way to do the .yaml)

@Alex-Kushleyev My issue is the params arent loaded from the YAML file of the driver, so I can't set and save them. I get errors whenever I try to run param set.

Any help on making sure this drivers module.yaml file gets loaded properly

@cbay https://github.com/modalai/px4-firmware/blob/main/src/drivers/pca9685_pwm_out/module.yaml here is where I think the params are

@cbay Checked out a older tag on voxl-px4 and was able to build and install.

When I run the driver I get an error revolving around its Freq, I understand you dont work with the driver so I doubt yall will have info about it.

What I am looking for is how to get the necessary Px4 parameters to show up, as they dont seem to be included properly

@cbay Most of the way through the build process, was able to sort it out including the necessary edits to the PCA driver. Issue I am running into is both the dev and master branches of voxl-px4 require a newer version of libfc-sensor (1.0.9 and 1.0.10 respectively) then what is included in 1.6.2 of the SDK.

I am not sure how to upgrade this library

@Eric-Katzfey Sounds good, any tips or steps on how to add to the build and to upload to the board?

Hey hope yall are well,

I am trying to interface a PCA9685 onto J19 of the VOXL2 (and ultimately the VOXL 2 Mini). I have connected the chip to QUP0 (Magnetometer I2C) and am trying to start the px4 driver for the PCA9685 found here: https://github.com/modalai/px4-firmware/tree/main/src/drivers/pca9685_pwm_out

I have started PX4 outside of daemon mode and am running the command: px4-qshell pca9685_pwm_out start -a 0x40 -b $ (have tried multiple busses). Everytime I get the error in qshell: Command pca9685_pwm_out not found. I can't seem to find the documentation on how to load this driver onto the VOXL2. Any support would be helpful. I am running on the newest SDK.

@Alex-Kushleyev Thanks so much for the information. I will be receiving the boards shortly and will run through those tests.

How much work do you think it would take to update voxl-lepton-server

@Vinny Thanks for the info,

Just to be clear, I am not looking for the PCB design schematics, just a symbol per board showing all the inputs and outputs to the board as a whole which then could be used in a system wiring diagram. If not I can just go ahead and make them myself, as all the info for it is on your docs

Any info about the dual lepton, it does seem to be documented that it works, please let me know if it doesnt.
