How to configure latest stable for V2 Kit

Problem still unsolved.
Been reading through the wiki but can’t figure out what to do.

Touch screen is working but encoders don’t. Neither click nor rotate.

What is the correct setting for encoders or how can I find out?
I can’t remember having these kind of problems with earlier zynthian software versions.

I opened a bug report #886 for this. I think we have to be patient :slight_smile:

Is it worth trying [ ] 2023-07-12-zynthianos-staging-2307.zip or better switch back to [ ] 2022-11-01-zynthianos-stable-2211.zip ?

Always worth trying, it improves lots of things :slight_smile:

Hi all, my poor zynthian is still not usable since I tried to upgrade to a more recent image. Which is the latest usable image for V2 kit? I tried 2022-11-01 stable but same boot loop there. Even if I try to login via webconf, it won`t accept the standard password which should be raspberry.
Where could I find older images? I’m stuck and would need some little support to get it runnung again. My configuration was mentioned earlier in this post.

You are not the first one to report this. @C0d3man already open an issue in the tracker and i’ve tried to figure where the problem is, but i’ve not a single V2 in my lab. I’ve V1, V3, V4 & V5, but i failed to keep an V2 unit with me, so i can’t test. I would build one, but i’ve not remaining AllInOne modules neither!!
If someone send me a V2 unit, i promise to solve the issue, so these venerable units continue working with the latest zynthian versions. BTW, V1 units do it very nicely!! :wink:

Best Regards!

Perhaps it could be useful to send me the output from re-building the zyncoder library:

cd /zynthian/zyncoder
rm -rf build
./build.sh

with the screenshot from the webconf’s dashboard.

Thanks!

I disassembled my v2 (and made it into a v4). Except for the Raspi, I would still have everything. Should I send the rest (with or without Hifiberry)?

Send me the all in one only. I think it should be enough.




Thanks

Ok - on the way (by snail mail - hope it will not take too long).

I’m trying to wrangle the current stable onto my SDCard as I still use a v2.1 kit (with a pi4)

First observation, clicking reboot in the webconfig after setting the kit doesn’t actually seem to reboot it. I had to manually ssh in and reboot to get it to pick up that I had set the V2 kit. Otherwise aplay -l didn’t show the card, suggesting the dtoverlay hadn’t been set. Presumably the constantly churning zynthian / jack restarting cycle inhibited the reboot somehow.

This was the only config I set

This is how the webconfig was after I set it.

The second thing is my encoders are working fine with the 2023-08-25-zynthianos-stable-2308 image. I haven’t hit update yet though.

Edit, now I have, the checksums are still as above and the encoders are still working.

@jofemodo Has it arrived in meantime?

Not yet!
I will check the mailbox right now …

Regards.

Hi @C0d3man !

I already received the all_in_one but forgot to confirm. Sorry mate!
BTW, this weekend i had some time to check with it and i couldn’t find any problem. Just a minor issue with the “wiring customization profile” that is pre-selected, but it doesn’t have any effect in the wiring layout, that is correct. and working. Anyway, i’ve fixed this detail in testing and stable too.
That’s the wiring layout config that you should have when selecting kit v2:

I just checked with latest testing, so perhaps there is some issue in stable already fixed in testing. I don’t want to waste time fixing something that is already fixed, so please, use the latest testing image for V2 kits:

https://os.zynthian.org/test/2023-11-02-zynthianos-testing-2311.zip

And update it for having the latest fix, although as i told you, it should work without it.

All the best!

P.S. Can i keep the AllInOne module with me for further testing?

Hi @jofemodo

thanks for checking! Strange, because I had had massive problems back then.

Unfortunately, I can no longer test the whole thing because you have my AllInOne board and the rest of the Z2 has migrated to my other Zynthians. I still have some spare parts if anyone is interested (housing, screen, …).

Sure - I no longer have any use for it.

Regards, Holger

It works in testing branch. As i told you, perhaps there is some issue in stable that is already fixed in testing. Let’s see if someone else with an V2 give some feedback.

Regards,

Hi, I can confirm, now it’s all working (testing-2311 as recommended above).
And nice to see all the additional controls for pianoteq.
Thank you all! :slight_smile:
