== Introduction and Overview
|
|
|
|
Welcome to the Altus Metrum community! Our circuits and software reflect
|
|
our passion for both hobby rocketry and Free Software. We hope their
|
|
capabilities and performance will delight you in every way, but by
|
|
releasing all of our hardware and software designs under open licenses,
|
|
we also hope to empower you to take as active a role in our collective
|
|
future as you wish!
|
|
|
|
Thank you for your interest in TeleLaunch, a wireless control system for
|
|
launching hobby rockets. Each TeleLaunch system contains at least two units,
|
|
a launch control box (TeleLCO) and one or more launch initiation boxes
|
|
(TeleFire). In this manual, we hope to provide all the information required
|
|
to configure and successfully operate a TeleLaunch system.
|
|
|
|
Unlike other Altus Metrum products, that are usually provided as circuit
|
|
boards that the user must arrange to mount and wire up, all products in the
|
|
TeleLaunch system are sold as fully packaged, almost-ready-to-use units. This
|
|
means that with only minimal one-time configuration of each unit, a TeleLaunch
|
|
system can be made ready for use very quickly.
|
|
|
|
Because documentation is just as prone as software to contain "bugs", and
|
|
can always be improved... If you have questions that aren't answered in this
|
|
manual, or just need a little help figuring things out, we strongly suggest
|
|
