AHRS Sensor Board v1.1


Last modified: 02/06/2018

Installation Instructions

1. Verify that your software version is v1.3b2 or later. Connect to the “stratux”
Wi-Fi network and navigate to http://192.168.10.1/. The version is at the top
of the page.


2. Open the anti-static bag containing the module. If you have the clear acrylic
case, you will want to remove the antenna connector closest to the header
pins (shown with an arrow below). Remove the fan connector. It is not
necessary to remove the Raspberry Pi from the case.




3. Insert the sensor board on the Pi pins shown below. With the SD card
pointing “UP”, the board goes on the top 12 pins. The area outlined in red
below shows where the board should go.







4. Re-attach the SMA connector removed in Step 2 and connect the fan with the
positive (RED) connected to the pin on the “RIGHT” (with everything
oriented as in the previous step) which is labeled “+”, as shown below.



5. Installation is complete. You will need to calibrate your sensors according to
how you will have the unit oriented when in flight. To start the sensor
calibration, browse to http://192.168.10.1/ and then click “Settings”. See the
“Troubleshooting” section below for common issues. If you encounter an
issue that you can’t fix, please contact us at [email protected]. Thank you.

Troubleshooting

Problem: I don’t see AHRS/calibration related settings in the web interface, or
there is garbled information.
Solutions:
1. Make sure that you are running firmware v1.3b2 or later.
2. Clear your browser cache and/or try browsing to the webui using a different
workstation or tablet.

Problem: The fan doesn’t turn on any more.
Solution: The fan is now controlled via the on-board fan controller, and will turn
on as needed based on the CPU temperature on the Raspberry Pi. It may not turn
on at all unless it is in a hot environment.
