Overview

Deviation is a replacement firmware for the Devention™ series (Devo) transmitters. The

primary goal is to add support for multiple protocols, opening the full potential of this

platform.

The core of the Deviation firmware is the mixer system, which is modeled after the

system used in the Er9X firmware for the Turnigy/Flysky9x™ transmitters.

Deviation also brings a USB file-system support, making it easy to manage the

transmitter from any C without the need for specialized upload/download tools.

Deviation has been designed for ultimate configurability. All model and transmitter

configuration is controlled through text files which the firmware (or user) can read and

write. It is easy to know exactly what is configured, as well as to modify the

configuration either through the transmitter or with a text editor. The main screen is very

configurable; any mix of inputs, switches, channel data, or timers can be displayed, and

configured per-model. Deviation also supports customizable themes with full control

over the images, fonts, and colors.

Deviation can store up to 255 different models, and uses a portable syntax that allows

sharing models between any transmitter supported by Deviation.

Deviation has been internationalized. New language support can be added by simply

copying a translation file into the appropriate directory on the transmitter (NOTE:

Deviation on the Devo7e currently only supports the English language).

Installation

Installation of Deviation is done just like upgrading the Walkera firmware.

Note that Deviation will NOT overwrite Walkera models stored on the Tx. While they

cannot be accessed by Deviation, they will be safely preserved should the Walkera

firmware ever need to be reinstalled (Note: With the Devo7e firmware, the original

models will be lost when switching to Deviation).

First install the deviation-devoXX-x.y.z.zip firmware using the Walkera ‘DfuSe USB

Upgrade’ tool. You will need the ‘Devention DfuSe USB Upgrade Tool’ from Walkera:

http://www.walkera.com/en/upload/upgrade/2013-2-26.rar. Do NOT attempt to use the

DfuSe tool from STMicroelectronics! It is recommended to test that this tool works by

upgrading to a different Walkera firmware. Several users have had compatibility issues

with the DfuSe tool.

lug the transmitter into the C via USB, and turn on the transmitter while holding

‘EXT’ to enter programming mode.

1) ress the ‘...’ button and select the dfu file to install

2) Select ‘Upgrade’ to install the firmware. This will be grayed-out if your Tx is not

detected. Do NOT use ‘Upload’ as this will destroy the dfu file on your PC

age | 5

There have been reports of it corrupting the model settings on the TX as

well

Turn off the transmitter, and turn back on while holding ‘ENT’. There should be a USB

logo on the screen.

If this is a first-time install of Deviation, the C should prompt to format the drive.

Format using default options. Next unzip the deviation-fs-devoXX-x.y.z.zip to the Tx

USB drive.

If this is an upgrade from a previous Deviation release, it is strongly recommended to

back-up the ‘models’ directory from the transmitter as well as the tx.ini file to ensure you

don’t lose any model or transmitter configuration. Next unzip the deviation-fs-devoXX-

x.y.z.zip to the C and copy all directories EXCE T for the ‘models’ directory and the

tx.ini file to the transmitter. Optionally, copy the ‘models’ directory to the transmitter

except for the currently configured model files. This last step will ensure that the defaults

for newly created models have the latest options set. If the tx.ini file is overwritten, the

stick calibration must be repeated and any settings reset.

USB & File-system

Deviation stores all configuration, bitmaps, and models as regular files on the USB file-

system.

USB can be most easily enabled by holding down the ‘ENT’ button while powering up

the transmitter. Files can then be easily copied to or from the Tx.

The directory structure is as follows:

\tx.ini Transmitter config. Includes trim settings, calibration data,

and the last-used model number

\errors.txt If the firmware crashes or reboots, debug information will be

stored in this

\media\config.ini The color scheme and fonts for the transmitter

\media\sound.ini Contains notes to play for various alarms

\media\*.bmp Images used for the current Tx theme

\media\*.fon Font files

\models\default.ini The default model, loaded whenever a model is cleared

\models\model*.ini Configuration files for each model. Due to a limitation in the

firmware, Deviation cannot create new files. It is therefore

necessary to have a modelxx.ini for each model regardless of

whether it is currently in use.

\modelico\*.bmp All available model icons (must be 96x96 pixels)

\templates\*.ini Configuration files used when loading predefined templates.

These are nearly identical to the model configuration files,

however they do not necessarily define all parameters

\language\lang*.* Language translation files. These are UTF-8 text files con-

taining the English string and the respective translated string.

(Changing lnguage is not supported on the Devo7e)

Reporting Bugs

To report bugs with the Deviation firmware, file a ticket at:

https://bitbucket.org/ hracturedBlue/deviation/issues

It is recommended that you create an account in order to be informed of updates to the

ticket, but this is not required.

lease include the Deviation version in all reports (find this on the USB/Version page)

If the bug includes a crash or reboot of the firmware, additionally include:

•The ‘.elf’ files that came with the firmware zip file.

•The errors.txt file from the transmitter

Main Page

Current Model: The name of the current model. It is configured from the Model

Configuration page.

Transmitter Power: This indicates the currently selected transmitter power. It is

configured from the Model Configuration page.

Battery Voltage: Numerical representation of current Tx battery state

Configurable Displays: These can be text-boxes contacting input, channel, telemetry, or

timer data; bar graphs displaying channel data; or icons displaying specific states (e.g.

gear, flaps,…)

Model Icon: An image representing the current model. It is configured from the Model

Configuration page.

Trims: The trim display can be configured to show 0, 4 or 6 trims

Navigating

The transmitter menus can be navigated via the physical buttons (Up, Down, Left, Right,

Ent, Ext).

The Menu is entered by pressing ‘ENT’ on the main menu

There are two types of spin-boxes available. Those consisting of both arrows and an oval

may act both as spin-boxes (for selecting a value) and as a button (which can have

various effects). Spin-boxes that contain only arrows and no oval do not act as buttons,

and are only used for value selection

On all menu pages, ‘U ’ and ‘DN’ are used to navigate to the previous/next item.

The ‘R+’ and ‘L-’ buttons are used on spin-box widgets to increase or decrease the

selected value. In some cases holding down the button will use larger step values to

move more quickly to the desired value.

For Buttons and rounded-spin-boxes, pressing ENT’ will press the button

ressing ‘EXT’ will exit 1 menu level.

About eviation Page

The Deviation release version can be accessed by selecting ‘About Deviation’ from the

main menu.

USB Page

The USB page cab be accessed by selecting ‘USB’ from the main menu. USB mode can

then be toggled on/off to enable access to the transmitter’s file-system. Note that doing

so should never be done while the model is bound, as USB will disrupt signal

transmission!
