SilverFox Controller C 1

[Peter Zehentreiter]

@Guzzist Do not know whether it is helpful for you.
I have the Button App installed as a single app on my Android.
To update the app I have just top open the app and if there ist an update available, the app ist asking me if I want to update.

[Guzzist]

@Peter-Zehentreiter ah - ok, understood. But it sounds, the Button app was used on DMD device - therefore I have asked, because on DMD you should not use Playstore for updates.

[Peter Zehentreiter]

@Guzzist My button app isn't from the Play Store either. You can find the app as an "APK file" either in the DMD forum or on the SilverFox website.

@Kenny-Thierens @Peter-Zehentreiter confirmed it worked as expected! So I trust that is the case

I did receive the new SilverFox controller but have not yet connected it to power. Hopefully I get around doing that next week.

@Corjan-Meijerink Hi, ive update everything but I cant zoom in and out with the joystick on the C1, The left joystick does nothing in MRA but works in other apps. I have a wired connection. Look forward to seeing if you have the same problem and cant resolve it. Thanks.

[Kenny Thierens]

@Jay-Salvo did you already tried bluetooth connection instead of wired?

[Peter Zehentreiter]

@Kenny-Thierens I also mentioned that issue 15 days ago to him......I also think, that could be an issue.

[Jay Salvo]

@Kenny-Thierens no it’s wired, I can’t easily disconnect the wiring to try Bluetooth as it’s buried in the bike. All other navigation platforms work with a wired connection

[Peter Zehentreiter]

@Jay-SalvoI In our Button app we can disable cable connection, do you have the same possibility in your Button app?

[Peter Zehentreiter]

@Corjan-Meijerink The only thing I´d like to know... is there a possibilty to skip waypoints with the controller, if yes please be so kind and explain how to do.

Thanks in advance
Peter

@Peter-Zehentreiter Thank you Peter, just gone and tried it and it works via the Bluetooth although as soon as power is lost I have to reconnect bluetooth again and deselect cable in the buttons app.

[Peter Zehentreiter]

@Jay-Salvo I am glad to read that you can celebrate at least a partial success

[Jay Salvo]

@Peter-Zehentreiter If you sort skipping waypoints easily Id be interested in that too

[Peter Zehentreiter]

@Jay-Salvo I'll keep you informed

[Peter Zehentreiter]

@Jay-Salvo Hi Jay, I got it
This link leads to the SilverFox Bluetooth controller commands:
https://www.myrouteapp.com/support

According to the commands listed in the table, the code "D" is the relevant command for skipping waypoints.

On the SilverFox website: https://www.silverfoxcontrollers.com/motorcycle-navigation-installation, you can find further information about which commands the two joysticks can execute.

According to this description, you need to push the control joystick up and hold it briefly.

I've tested it; it works for both via and shaping points.

@Peter-Zehentreiter That's Brilliant, a huge thank you, I will have a play this weekend to see it working.

[Kenny Thierens]

@Jay-Salvo so, the combination T865x with C1 controller is working well for you now that it's BT connected? All major functions are working? If so, I'll order one too. Just need to adjust it a bit to fit on my R1200RT handlebar.

[Arjan de Vries]

Would you prefer c1 above h1? Why or why not?

[Peter Zehentreiter]

@Arjan-de-Vries It depends what bike do you have and how much space do you have on your handlebar.
I checked the specs on the SilverFox Website and came to the solution that all controller can do almost the same.

For my GS 1250 the C1 was the best solution (in my opinion)

@Kenny-Thierens Hi Kenny, I can get it to work with bluetooth connection but still not working with cable connection. After every update the tablet receives (which seems like 1 every other day) I have to go back in and reset the button configuration. It's a great system when working but very buggy. I can get it to work brilliantly with Kurviger though which isn't listed as a supported app so I will be using that until MRA sort the cable issue. I've messaged Joao on the DMD2 forum about it and he replied its on his Todo list but I can't see him rushing to sort as it doesn't effect their app. I think it will require a collaboration of MRA, Silverfox and users to nag him to move it along.
