The USB VCP Port has a new DebugConsole setting that
routes all output destined for PIOS_COM_DEBUG to the
emulated serial port.
To enable this in your build, you'll have to build like:
- make fw_coptercontrol_clean
- make fw_coptercontrol ENABLE_DEBUG_CONSOLE=YES
You can then output formatted text to the console
like this:
#if defined(PIOS_INCLUDE_DEBUG_CONSOLE)
PIOS_COM_SendFormattedString(PIOS_COM_DEBUG,
"foo is %u\r\n",
foo);
#endif /* PIOS_INCLUDE_DEBUG_CONSOLE */
Please ensure that all of your debug output is
wrapped with these macros so that your debug
code doesn't bloat the firmware image.
Serial ports now have a new HW setting called DebugConsole
which can be used to dump internal state to a serial port
for debug.
To enable this feature, you need to:
- make fw_coptercontrol_clean
- make fw_coptercontrol ENABLE_DEBUG_CONSOLE=YES
- configure one of the serial ports as DebugConsole in the GCS
- save settings
- power-cycle your board
Things to note:
- The console is at 57600,8N1.
- This is not currently configurable via the GCS.
- You can only have a single console enabled at a time.
The GCS hwsettings config widget now disallows any
configuration that disables both HID and VCP telemetry
over the USB port.
The firmware will allow it if the UAVObj is set manually.
This allows a mechanism to reduce RAM usage by another
500 more bytes if USB telemetry can be sacrificed in
certain configurations.
TelemetrySettings object removed (saved 200+ bytes of RAM). Telemetry
port speed moved to the HwSettings object. Added GPS port speed setting.
GCS code updated to reflect changes and support both fields.
Spelling mistakes
Show inverted movement as soon as checkbox is checked.
Bring back flightmode change messagebox.
Layout issues (this was not a issue on win so not sure its fixed).
Support for flightmode binary switches neutral=min+(max-min)/2.
Flightmode slider not changing according to command.
Mode 1 roll on the right (still think it doesn't make sense :) )
