Hi,
This is certainly one of the most FAQ.
With v013 software, the display is only updated when the RX unit receives any valid data packet from the TX. I recognize that this behavior could be a little frustrating to everyone that have just finished to build the system and want to test it. I have changed it in software v1.4, that should be available in a few days.
As said by others above, for testing purposes, there is a way to overcome this behavior just uncommenting a line on the code.
Quote:I'm also seeing the issue where plugging in the USB causes a reboot. I have a jumper installed on VP1.
Opening the serial monitor in the Arduino software causes a reboot as well.
This is an important issue, that need to be fixed before anything else.
What USB chipset your Arduino have? FTDI or CH340?
My guess is that your are using an Arduino with a CH340 chipset, but at R3/C3, instead of a 100nF capacitor you have installed a 120 Ohm resistor. Please check this and give some feedback.
