Testing the Serial Connection
Connect your Remzibi’s OSD 3DR to your computer (see the “Connecting your Remzibi’s OSD 3DR to
your computer” section earlier in this tutorial)
To test the serial connection, you will need to switch to Programming mode (See the “Changing Modes,
and Meaning of the Status LED” section earlier in this tutorial). Once the OSD is in Programming mode,
click on Serial Communications.
In the Serial Functions window, select
the correct COM port, and click
Connect. In the Serial Cable Setup tab,
select “FTDI – diydrones.com”
from the Cable Selection dropdown
menu. You do not need to follow the
Programming Mode instructions listed
in the window since these are for use
with the Original Remzibi’s OSD. Click
Start Test, and check that the Status
reads “Passed […]” If the test fails, make
sure you have selected the correct COM
Port, make sure that your Remzibi
board is in programming mode, and
check your cabling. Also make sure that
the Remzibi board is powered.
Upload Program & Font
Your Remzibi’s OSD 3DR will need to be in programming mode (see the Changing Modes, and the
Meaning of the Status LED” section earlier in this tutorial). The rest of the steps for uploading program
and font are the same as the steps in Happy Killmore’s manu
for the Original Remzibi’s OSD.
