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
Reporting Bugs
To report bugs with the Deviation firmware, file a ticket at:
https://bitbucket.org/PhracturedBlue/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.
Please 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:
