    • RE: Flight Core V2 Magnetometer and Barometer Issues

      @Eric-Katzfey One more update, I ended up upgrading the firmware to v1.14.0-2.0.98 for all the flight core units that I have and I'm confident the barometer missing issue is gone now. Thank you for your help and your quick responses.

    • RE: Flight Core V2 Magnetometer and Barometer Issues

      @Eric-Katzfey That is strange, I just upgraded the firmware to v1.14.0-2.0.98 on one of my flight core units, I got rid of the micro sd and the extras.txt file as well and I don't seem to get the "barometer sensor 0 missing" error anymore. Interestingly /etc/init.d/rc.board_sensors is the exact same so something else may be going on instead.

      nsh> cat /etc/init.d/rc.board_sensors | grep -nE 'icp201|bmp388'
      board_adc start
      voxlpm -X -b 3 -k -T VBATT start
      voxlpm -X -b 3 -T P5VDC start
      icm42688p -s -b 1 -R 12 start
      icm42688p -s -b 2 -R 12 start
      icp201xx -I start
      if param greater VOXL_ESC_CONFIG 0
      then
      usleep 1500000
      voxl_esc start
      fi

      I noticed that /etc/init.d/rc.board_sensors is where icp201xx -I start is ran:

      nsh> cat /etc/init.d/rc.board_sensors | grep -nE 'icp201|bmp388'
      board_adc start
      voxlpm -X -b 3 -k -T VBATT start
      voxlpm -X -b 3 -T P5VDC start
      icm42688p -s -b 1 -R 12 start
      icm42688p -s -b 2 -R 12 start
      icp201xx -I start
      if param greater VOXL_ESC_CONFIG 0
      then
      usleep 1500000
      voxl_esc start
      fi
      

      I didn't want to mess with the file (not sure if I can), so I just installed a microsd card to the flight core and created this file:

      nsh> cat /fs/microsd/etc/extras.txt
      usleep 2500000
      icp201xx stop
      usleep 300000
      icp201xx start -I -b 4 -a 0x63 -q
      nsh> 
      

      just icp201xx start -I should also work, but I have repowered this flight core and used it on other flight cores multiple times and this issue no longer occurs. My guess is it's just a timing issue, icp201xx start is probably failing in rc.board_sensors because the barometer rail isn't fully up at that moment.

    • RE: Flight Core V2 Magnetometer and Barometer Issues

      @Eric-Katzfey Hello I am also getting "barometer 0 missing" occasionally, a reboot or two also usually fixes it for me. I get it occasionally even when I'm powering the flight core V2 only on my drone (nothing else on my drone is powered), using J3 USB connector. I also just tested it with another flight corev2 unit, one that is fresh and not on any drone and also just powered with J3, it also gets this error. It seems that whenever It's initially powered, the barometer won't be detected until I reboot.
      I did some further debugging using the MAVlink Console in QGC, it seems when the "barometer sensor 0 missing" occurs the icp driver doesn't actually start.

      nsh> icp201xx status
      INFO [SPI_I2C] Not running
      nsh> icp201xx start -I

      @gestrada1150
      I think it should come with gps denied navigation configuration out of the box, you can verify and set it up yourself here:

    • M0202 Hadron640R adapter

      Hello, I can't seem to find the M0202 Hadron640R adapter on the product store,
      It is mentioned in this guide and the PCB catalog.
