Tony, that's interesting, I don't have a "CONNECTION" menu item anywhere in my menu system. I rechecked it this morning to make certain I hadn't missed something.

On the back of my H4, I see a HW version: 4.2

Hi Don,
first of all thanks for the really useful work!
I have an H4, firmware 1.0.45. In my unit, at the HOME menu, tapping
CONFIG, before the voice VERSION i see the voice CONNECTION which leads to
two other menu, Output config. and Speed config.
Thanks,

Re: File /NanoVNA Menu Structure Map-x.pdf uploaded #file-notice

 

Sorry, being new to posting on groups.io, I didn't include sufficient info to distinguish the specific version this structure map was made from.

As one of the posters answered, the map was created from the NanoVNA-H4 using DiSlord's release version 1.0.45. Next time, I'll be a bit more careful when posting. Also, too bad there is a way to edit posts so corrections can be made...

Re: Firmware updates.

 

Roger - the larger font is only on the H. The H4's font in unchanged.

Larry,

Have you compared the DisLord and Hugen firmware version 1.0.45 on a -H4?? Apparently the Hugen version uses larger font sizes but I don't know if that is the case on the -H4.

I am currently using the DisLord version on a -H4 and it works great but if the fonts are easier to read with these old eyes i will upgrade.

Re: File /NanoVNA Menu Structure Map-x.pdf uploaded #file-notice

 

It's for DiSlord's release 1.0.45 for the H4
The H4 does not have a soft key to place the device into DFU mode like the H version has - the operator just needs to hold the jog sw in and power-on the device for that mode.

Re: New NanaVNA-H4 User #nanovna-h4

 

You have the latest firmware loaded to your copy of the H4, hence the different menu structure.
It is actually a very nice version of firmware as it implements new handy features and work very well.

Welcome to the NanoVNA world!

Be ready to spend an enormous amount of time with it, it is quite addictive :-)


Re: Firmware updates.

 

Hi Roger,
I'll have a look at the source on Fri.
?I finally got DiSlord's H4 1.0.48 code to compile today.

I'll see how the fonts look. I .did. load Hugen's code on my 2.8" unit last week but didn't like it so I loaded DiSlord's 1.0.48 on it.?

Re: Firmware updates.

 

Guys,

I have done firmware updates for many different devices over the year since flash chips became mainstream. Once you get your ducks in a row the Nana/Tiny updates are among the easiest ever. There really isn't any reason NOT to do it and very good reasons TO do it.

That's not the way to think about it, Charlie!
If Michael wants to use some of the newer PC applications, he will need to upgrade the firmware or things may not work properly.
Yes, he can stay with the older apps, but OneofEleven's Nano-App.exe needs at least 1.0 or greater firmware.
Michael - it's actually very easy to flash - just follow the guides.? Grab the newbie guide.

You cannot 'brick' the device - I proved this to another user when I pulled the USB cable in the middle of an update. All I did was to short the BOOT-0 pins to place the unit into DFU mode again and re-flashed the device. The only caveat is to make sure you use H FW on an H device, H4 FW on an H4 device and F FM on an F device.
You have an H device so download the 1.0.45 zip file from the forum files area, unzip and flash the H version to your device.
I compile and flash my own changes - once you've dome it a couple of times - you got it!

Hi,

I've had a NanoVNA for a few months now and I'm very pleased with it. It
does everything I ask of it, having said that my main interest at
present is in HF and VHF frequencies. Initially, I looked forward to
updating the firmware as and when improvements were made, but viewing
the sad litany of people having trouble with updates I'm put off
performing any updates for the time being.

As I say I'm perfectly happy with it at present, NanoVNA-Saver works
fine and is a great asset so don't have any great desire to update. it
just seems a pity that it seems to cause so many people problems.

New NanaVNA-H4 User #nanovna-h4

 

I just received my NanoVNA-H4 from R & L Electronics. I haven't even had time to do any testing of it as yet but did want to post my thoughts on this new unit. First of all, it appears to be very well built. I've attached photo I took of the Version screen. I noticed right away that the menu structure map included in the box does not match what I am seeing on my new NanoVNA-H4. So, I put together my own version of the menu structure and have uploaded that to the forum under the files section. It's titled "/g/nanovna-users/files/NanoVNA%20Menu%20Structure%20Map-x.pdf".

Other than what I have read on this forum and the many videos about the NanoVNA, I am a complete newbie in this arena. I have a lot of learning ahead of me but am looking forward to the day I have gained some proficiency on this device.
