Archer Plus SR6Mini-E ESC setup not working

[Hippo]

I cannot get the esc lua script to interact with the receiver. I'm using a Taranis 2019 on OpenTX 2.3.11 ACCST D16. Gyro setup script works properly, no problem. ESC setup script does nothing. Help?

Hi
I do not have a "Archer Plus SR6 Mini-E" but I recon the problem could be caused by the same reason as the Lua scripts not working for the "Archer plus SR8".
If the receiver was bought lately it should have the newest firmware on it (v3.0.1 dated 2024-12-20).
It is possible that the scripts for OpenTX (V1.00 dated 2023-12-15 - one year older) are not working with this firmware.
You could try to downgrade the receiver firmware to version v1.0.10. (If you don't mind the risk)
regards Alois

PS: I also would recommend to carefully check whether the Stab Luas are really working correct. With the SR8 receiver (same Stab scripts) the problem was that the script seemed to work well.
But when I run the script a second time I found that some of the settings had not been stored. There is no error message or similar.

Good point about the firmware mismatch. Downgrading could help, but checking for updated Lua scripts or compatibility notes from the manufacturer might be a safer first step before rolling back.

Hi

Good point but for OpenTx/EdgeTX the newest Lua-Scripts are still V2.0.4.
Up to now Frsky does not support Archer Plus receivers with newer Lua scripts for Opentx/EdgeTX (sad but no V3...).

But there is something else I would check. Hippo wrote that he bound the receiver with Accst D16. (But he has a Taranis x9D 2029 with Access).
I would recommend to bind the receiver with Access. It is possible that this scripts require the newer protocols for full communication with the receiver.

Just realized I never followed up on this. The problem was... they sent me the wrong receiver. The version i was using had no esc. Unfortunately they are physically identical and the lua scripts can't identify the version either. Even FrSky support had no way to tell me which version i had.
