Issue with new P3/P3SVGA firmware
 
|
I uploaded the new P3/P3SVGA firmware last night, and now I have what
appears to be a minor, but annoying issue. When I first boot everything up, I have my P3 set up to display both waterfall and bandscope displays. However, the P3SVGA only shows the bandscope display. I have to turn the dual display off then back on again in order to get both displays via the P3SVGA. Also, my frequency markers on the SVGA display are reduced to a 1-pixel wide line instead of the broader green and purple markers. Is anyone else seeing this? Right now it is just a minor inconvenience, but it would be nice if this gets fixed in the next firmware version.

I'm not experiencing that here, but there is one of many features I like about the SVGA image. When I first got the P3 I did not like the U shaped cursors, but now that I have a larger display for the P3 I find I like the U shaped cursors better for weak signal work because they don't hide the smaller RF signature of the weak signal. If I didn't have the SVGA board I would and still do use the vertical cursors. Now I'm looking forward to mouse controlled QSY on the SVGA screen.

Hi Ian,
As far as I know no one else is experiencing this. When you upgraded to the new firmware did load both the SVGA and P3? You can verify this by using the P3 Utility, it will show the version information of both the P3 and SVGA. -Paul

It would appear that a couple of reboots solved the problem. When I
turned everything on over the weekend, all was as it should be. Whatever happened, the gremlins went to play elsewhere! :-) --Ian Ian Kahn, KM4IK Roswell, GA EM74ua [hidden email] K3 #281, P3 #688 HRD v5.x/6.0 Test Team On 5/7/2012 12:14 PM, Paul Saffren N6HZ wrote: > Hi Ian, > > As far as I know no one else is experiencing this.

I reported this (WF not always coming up on the external screen) last week and still see it from time to time. I don't think I have seen the other problem.
