MultiDecoderCoder

This code is running only with Arduino Uno,Pro Mini ou Pro Micro - Option JetiEx is running only with Pro Micro - Option Failsafe is running only with Pro Mini

Decoder for maxi 16 servos for signals protols:

Coder convert 8 outputs servos PWM in:

How to use it: When you use your module the first time, you need to configure it. For that, you need to connect FTDI module to your Pro Mini board or use the USB port of your Pro Micro board. Use the IDE console (115200 bauds and NL and CR). You have 3 secondes for use the ENTER key. After that, without new settings, the code start in PPM mode.

The console will return:

text
Version:0.40
Wait Return...

Starting without configuration
Decoder in use
Failsafe is Off
8 outputs mode (Use D2-D9)
PPM mode in use

If you use the ENTER key before the 3s, you enter in the Configuration mode.

Version:0.40
Wait Return.

Configuration mode is actived
Decoder in use
Failsafe is Off
8 outputs mode (Use D2-D9)
PPM mode in use

Enter 'h' key (without cote) for the help.

n set 8/16 outputs mode
r first 8 outputs changed
p set PPM mode
s set SBUS mode
i set IBUS mode
d set DSMX mode
m set SRLX mode
u set SUMD mode
j set JETIEx mode
f set Failsafe values

The DECODER mode know the protocols PPM, SBUS, IBUS, DSMX, SRLX, SUMD and JETIEx (Pro Micro only). The CODER mode know the protocols PPM and SBUS only.

How to connect your module:

  • In DECODER mode, use the pin RX as input and VCC,GND as power. Use D2 to D9 and D10 to D13, A0 to A3 as PWM output.
  • In CODER mode, use the pin 11 as ouput and VCC,GNS as power. Use D2 to D9 and D10 to D13 as PWM input.

Questions

How big is the MultiDecoderCoder PCB?

It measures 61 × 50.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the MultiDecoderCoder use?

11 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the MultiDecoderCoder KiCad files?

From the pierrotm777/MultiDecoderCoder repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/MultiDecoderCoder.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the MultiDecoderCoder design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask pierrotm777 before reusing the design.
