a A7105 module defective? was created by christx
my module a7105 seems to be defective:
how should i check if this is really true?
i posses a multimeter and a generator of signal.
if i have to buy another one should this one be ok: link to the seller

that module will work fine yes. Why do you think your module is defective? has it ever worked? are you sure it is not an installation error? I have not personally seen an outright failure of a module. I've seen a couple blown PA which drastically reduced range, but that is about it

if i install a model*.ini file wich uses the A7105 ( for a hubsan for example) my radio won't work (the lcd is lighted but there is no information and it won't be possible to switch it off using the power button (i have to remove the battery). If i place model*.ini files for models which don't use the module it seems to work.
I say it seems cause i posses only an hubsan...
to edit the tx.ini file i use programmer's notepad. I removed only two semicolons in front of "enable-a7105..." and "has-pa-a7105....".
At the first line of the modules section there is a semicolon in front of "enable...cyrf6936=B12" and no semicolon in front of "has-pa-cyrf6936=0"
i soldered the module with the help of an engineer in electronics i think he did no mistake. I see him soon to check it.

What connections did you make to the module?

i did the connections respecting the chart in page 10 of the file "adding external modules to your deviation transmitter"
i made three connections from the cyrf module to the a7105:
7 to 3
2 to 4
3 to 5
no connection to miso (marked N/C ) it's maybe here that there is something
wrong
two connections from pcb pins to a7105:
(1+9) to vdd (1 and 9 are connected together)
2 to tms (i have only one module)

i choosed to remove the a7105
i checked the connections it seems ok
i will bind a model with another protocol (dsmx or dsm2 for example)

what position dod you give in
enable-a7105=???
tms should be A13 so the line should be
enable-a7105=A13
enable-a7105=???
tms should be A13 so the line should be
enable-a7105=A13

here are some pictures of the module
when i installed it i respected the chart of the "adding external module..." pdf document in page 10.
the module is currently not installed in the radio
i binded a blade nano cpx with my radio

gnd also needs connected to rxen, though I'm not sure if that would cause your problem. but the TX.ini part is crucial to have right

It is not mentioned, but it is recommended to connect RxEN to GND. It is documented in the updated Wiki instructions:
bitbucket.org/PhracturedBlue/deviation/wiki/ModuleInstallation
(note these are still under construction)
Your wiring otherwise looks fine.
Once installed in the Tx, please take pictures of the connections as well, and provide the contents of your tx.ini file (I assume you are using 4.0.1)

would it not be better to wire rxen to vdd if you want to use the hubsan protocoll?

having rxen and txen both enabled is not a legal combination. The behavior is undefined, and it is not recommended. If you want to get any range from the Hubsan telemetry, I recommend using the wiring for the nightly builds which allows control of these pins from software.

i will reconnect the module next week;i will provide pictures
at that time.
in the tx.ini file in the subsection [modules] i use to remove the 2 semicolons which concerns
the a7105.

i had a look to the documentation on this site:
click here
especially on the picture attached to this post
it seems to me i have to connect the ground pin (n°7) of the Cyrf module to the
ground pin of the bug port.

as promised here are some new pictures of my soldering:
bug2.jpg and bug1.jpg show a confiuration where the lcd will remain blank as described above ( plus tx won't turn off with the power button).
Works.jpeg shows a soldering where vcc+txen won't be soldered to vdd.
with that soldering there is no message of error but i didn't succed in binding my hubsan, it sounds logical because the a7105 is not receiving any power!!

DO HAPPEN TO HAVE A V911 ALSO OR ANY OF THE WL TOYS STUFF CHRIS I WAS WONDERING IF WE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE WHEN I TRY TO BIND THE HUBSAN MY TX ALSO FREEZES REQUIREING RESTART BY BATTERY REMOVAL AND EVEN SO MUCH AS I HAD TO GO INTO USB MODE AND COPY A DIFFRENT WORKING MODLE CONFIG OVER THE HUBSAN ONE TO GET IT TO WORK RIGHT AGAIN BUT IT BINDS RIGHT UP TO THE WLTOYS HELIS NO PROBLEM I SCAVENGED MY BOARD FROM A V911 TX WITH THE POWER AMP
