TCXO info now shown on dashboard

Post by KE0FHS »

Nice update today (dashboard v20181214): the TCXO chip info is now shown on the dashboard in the Radio Info section so you easily identify whether your hotspot's TCXO chip is running at 12.288 or 14.7456 MHz.

This info is needed to determine which firmware update to apply, for example, with the MMDVM_HS_HAT or MMDVM_HS_DUAL_HAT, there are separate firmware update script commands:

MMDVM_HS_Hat board with 14.7456 MHz TCXO1 connected to GPIO:

Code: Select all

sudo pistar-mmdvmhshatflash hs_hat
MMDVM_HS_Hat board with 12.288 MHz TCXO connected to GPIO:

Code: Select all

sudo pistar-mmdvmhshatflash hs_hat-12mhz
MMDVM_HS_DUAL_Hat board with 14.7456 MHz TCXO connected to GPIO:

Code: Select all

sudo pistar-mmdvmhshatflash hs_dual_hat
MMDVM_HS_DUAL_Hat board with 12.288 MHz TCXO connected to GPIO:

Code: Select all

sudo pistar-mmdvmhshatflash hs_dual_hat-12mhz
