Constant Baro Ground

Post by Daryl »

On the independent baro installation page of the manual the 'non-banded end of D1' is recomended for the ground on the V3.0 board, which is incorrect and should be changed.

Is there a problem using the DB9 end of R57?

Thanks

That should be OK, or you could use SG or the proto GND.

Thanks Matt,
I'm afraid I followed the manual, not knowing the problem till it pegged the reading, and started checking for grounds. The end of R57 is close enough that I have just pulled the jumper from D1 to move to R57 without any other mods / longer wires etc.
