:doctype: article
|
|
|
|
Version 1.6.3 adds idle mode to AltosDroid and has bug fixes
|
|
for our host software on desktops, laptops an android devices
|
|
along with BlueTooth support for Windows.
|
|
|
|
== AltOS
|
|
|
|
AltOS fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Fix hardware flow control on TeleBT v3.0. RTS/CTS is
|
|
wired backwards on this board, switch from using the
|
|
hardware to driving these pins with software.
|
|
|
|
== AltosUI and TeleGPS Applications
|
|
|
|
AltosUI and TeleGPS New Features:
|
|
|
|
* Add BlueTooth support for Windows operating system. This
|
|
supports connections to TeleBT over BlueTooth rather than
|
|
just USB.
|
|
|
|
AltosUI and TeleGPS Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Change Java detection and install on Windows. Detection is
|
|
now done by looking for the 'javaw.exe' program, and
|
|
installation by opening a browser on the java.com web site.
|
|
|
|
* Delay polling while the Fire Igniters is visible to allow
|
|
for TeleMega to report back complete status over the radio.
|
|
|
|
* Disallow changing RF calibration numbers in the
|
|
configuration UI. There's no good reason to change this from
|
|
the field, and recovering is really hard if you haven't
|
|
written down the right number.
|
|
|
|
* Fix USB device discovery on Mac OS X El Capitan. This makes
|
|
the connected Altus Metrum USB devices appear again.
|
|
|
|
* Fix acceleration data presented in MonitorIdle mode for
|
|
TeleMetrum v2.0 flight computers.
|
|
|
|
== AltosDroid
|
|
|
|
AltosDroid new features:
|
|
|
|
* Monitor Idle mode. Check state of flight computer while in
|
|
idle mode over the radio link
|
|
|
|
* Fire Igniters. Remotely fire ignires for recovery system
|
|
ground tests.
|
|
|
|
* Remote reboot. Cause the flight computer to reboot over the
|
|
radio link. This provides a method for switching the flight
|
|
computer from idle to flight mode without needing to reach
|
|
the power switch.
|
|
|
|
* Configurable frequency menu. Change the set of available
|
|
frequencies and provide more descriptive names.
|
|
|
|
AltosDroid bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Don't set target location if GPS hasn't locked yet.
|
|
|
|
* Fix saving target states so they can be reloaded when the
|
|
application restarts. When the application is shut down and
|
|
restarted, all previous target state information will be
|
|
restored (including GPS position if available).
|
|
|
|
* Fix crash on some Android devices for offline maps when
|
|
changing the map scale or location.
|
|
|
|
* Don't require USB OTG support. This kept the latest
|
|
AltosDroid from being offered on devices without USB device
|
|
support, although it can work without that just fine using
|
|
BlueTooth.
|
|
|
|
* Don't require bluetooth to be enabled. This allows the
|
|
application to operate with USB devices or just show old
|
|
data without turning on the bluetooth radio.
|
|
|
|
* Recover old tracker positions when restarting
|
|
application. This finally allows you to safely stop and
|
|
restart the application without losing the last known
|
|
location of any tracker.
|
|
|
|
== Documentation
|
|
|
|
* Document TeleMega and EasyMega additional pyro channel
|
|
continuity audio alert pattern.
