Raspberry Pi Zero 2!

Hi,

Just let people know, I received a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 this afternoon and I have successfully loaded it with Pi-Star V4.1.5_30_Oct-2021.

On receipt of the RPi Zero 2, I fitted it with a N5BOC Lonestar Radio Modem Simplex Hat, loaded V4.1.5_30_Oct-2021 and booted the RPi.

It was quick to ...

Re: t30, t32, and t31 slowly updating

Hi Jason,

Just an update on my previous post.

JumboSPOT HS Hat firmware FIXED!

I found that it was relatively simple to update the hat firmware, so refitted the JumbSPOT board and ran,

"sudo pistar-mmdvmhshatflash hs_hat"

When the system rebooted, all was now good, all fields on the Nextion ...

Re: t30, t32, and t31 slowly updating

Hi Jason,

Problem solved and fixed!

I started to have some suspicion from an earlier comment that you made that the path for the port via modem was through the hat!

It might be a hardware/firmware problem with your hat, perhaps you should move the hat to the one system you say works fine and ...

Re: t30, t32, and t31 slowly updating

Hi Jason,

How could I roll back the NextionDriver to V1.20 or rebuild or re-install the V1.20?

Looking at ON7LDS's github pages, I am lost?

Re: t30, t32, and t31 slowly updating

Hi Jason,

OK I hear what you are trying to tell me but it is leaving me confused!

OK re your screetest.hmi file, I have down loaded it, extracted it and loaded it into my Nextion Editor. Now I am lost! My Nextion Editor skills are not much more than compiling the TFT file though I have edited some ...

Re: t30, t32, and t31 slowly updating

Hi Jason,

Thanks for hanging in there for me.

OK, I have downloaded PD0DIB's Model 10 screen layout, NX4832T035_Model 10-3.5inch_SMPLX_Basic_v1.05.HMI, created the TFT file and loaded it to the Nextion Display. No problems with that and no customisation on my part.

Next I ran a "clean install" of ...

Re: t30, t32, and t31 slowly updating

Hi Jason,

Thanks for the feedback.

To work with the Raspberry Pi, I use PuTTY and I am quite familiar with using PuTTY. (my current computer is still running W7 Pro)

With regards to the question of the Text Editor, I was referring to this editor we are using to communicate, the one I am currently ...

Re: t30, t32, and t31 slowly updating

Hi Jason,

Thanks for the feedback, I am working through it all.

This hot spot that is showing all fields in a very timely manner is my duplex hot spot using the N5BOC duplex hat with the Nextion Screen connected via the Modem port on the hat, with Pi-Star

MMDVM Display Type: Nextion, Port: /etc ...

Re: Offical ON7LDS NextionDriver version 1.20 released.

Hi Jason,

Thanks for your reply. I have been "banging my head" working through this following your reply.

OK, my hot spot that I am playing with is one of my originals that I built a few years ago and have built several with the same hardware, all without any problems, up until upgrading to 4.1.5 ...
