Getting the
Jabo II
Zen Hua (Mode 1, easy to change to mode 2) transmitter set up to work with
FMS.
Download the following software from the following locations.
SOFTWARE: Version 2.0 Alpha 8.5 (Windows 95/98/ME/2000/XP)
LOCATION:
http://n.ethz.ch/student/mmoeller/fms/index_e.html
SOFTWARE:
PPJoy
LOCATION:
http://www.geocities.com/deonvdw/Docs/PPJoyMain.htm
(Software download on the top left hand)
Put them in a folder called FMS (or whatever you like).
Install Version 2.0 Alpha 8.5 on your computer, by double clicking setup.exe
(Accept defaults)
Connect your zen hua transmitter to the pc using the supplied cable.
Install the PPJoy software (setup.exe), the drivers on the software are not
signed
so windows will give you a warning, ignore it and continue with the
installation.
When you install PPJoy it will automatically open up this window below. Keep it
open.
(Figure1)
It will tell you it has detected new hardware once ppjoy is installed i.e.
your transmitter and start installing drivers.
It will take you through 2 wizard installations.
From the window (Figure 1) above double click on top left "configure
joysticks". this opens the following window.
(Figure 2)
In the window that opens click "Add" this opens a new window (Figure 3), shown below.
(Figure 3)
In the first drop down on this window select virtual port,
and accept the defaults that are added ( they are greyed out any way) pick
controller 1 in the lowest drop down and click OK. Your joystick is now added.
Now you need to configure it for the Zen Hua transmitter.
In the window (Figure 1) shown above now select PPJoyCOM this will open
the window shown below.
(Figure 4)
Keep the defaults i.e. 'virtual joystick 1' and 'COM1' but then in the drop down
select 'Zen Hua 5 byte protocol'.
To test your transmitter is working Check on "Beep on serial input (debug)" to
check if your pc is communicating with your radio. If it's working, you should
hear some
non-stop fast beeps from your pc speaker. Leave your PPJoy on or minimise in
the background. (Don't close the window)
Then open and configure the control for FMS as shown below.
(Figure 5)
Click on "Controls" on the menu bar and select "Analog Control...". Select
"Joystick interface", and then "Mapping/Calibration". Please note, this mapping
is for mode-1 radio. Map your radio as
Mapping/calibration. Make the following changes to the settings.
Channel (Inv)
Rudder 1 x
Elevator 2 x
Aileron 4 x
Throttle 3 x
Tail 1 x
Nick 2 x
Roll 4 x
Pitch 3 x
x = check
For a mode 2 transmitter you would set it the opposite to these.
Then click "Calibrate" after mapping your stick control and just follow the
instructions on FMS on how to do the calibration.
Then click on FMS menu bar click model and select new model, from the choices select
Threedee helicopter and you ready to fly.
Hope this helps.
