Chaos 20A ESC beeper tone

Not sure if this is BetaFlight help or BLHeliS help…
I can’t get the beacon tone to work when I hold AUX3 on my QX7.
I’ve tried downgrading my ESCs from 16.7 to 16.67 dshot.
I’ve setup AUX3 switch on my Taranis (in the same manner I did for my ARM switch).
I’ve setup AUX3 in the correct range on BetaFlight (same idea when I setup ARM).
I’m running BF 3.2.4 on my Omnibus F4 V5.1.
My ESCs are 20A ChaosFPV
I’m running Dshot600 on my FC.

Any ideas?

Found this…

If you want to turn it on, go to the CLI and type:

set beeper_dshot_beacon_tone = 1
save

By default this setting has a value of 0 which disables the motor beeper. Larger numbers makes it louder, but if you make it too loud it’s possible to overheat your motors even damage them. 3 is a good value to start with, and make sure to check your motors for sign of overheat.

I’ll give that a shot tonight, cheers.

Worked perfectly! Thankyou!! I have no idea how you found that. I’ve been trawling through the GitHub repo all day trying to figure out how you got that string.

Is there like a cheat sheet or something?

In any case, thank you very much for your help.
