New since 2.3.10
“BETTER_USB_HS” driver
A while ago, Microsoft / ST.com introduced though Windows update a change to the handling of their driver which affected OpenTX users trying to use their radio a USB joystick. Based on a suggestion from Joel Stewart here, we have applied for, and gained access to, a unique ‘usb id’, so starting with 2.3.11, OpenTX users won’t be affected by this issue anymore.
Backlight function
Backlight function has been reviewed and works as below
-
If NO source is selected: The radio behaves as usual if the backlight function is not active backlight will turn on at ‘on’ brightness when function is active, regardless of radio backlight setting and state this is comparable to legacy backlight function
-
If a source is selected and backlight mode is set to OFF: backlight is set to off level (but not turned off) when the function is not active if backlight function is active and a source is selected, backlight is set to that source level (including screen off if set at -1024)
-
If a source is selected and backlight mode is not set to OFF: The radio behaves as usual if the backlight function is not active if backlight function is active and a source is selected, backlight ‘on level’ is set to that source level (including screen off if set at -1024). This level is active only when the conditions for backlight to be on are satisfied.
