Release Notes for Version 0.9
Copyright © 2011 Bdale Garbee and Keith Packard
Version 0.9 adds a few new firmware features and accompanying
AltosUI changes, along with new hardware support.
-
Support for TeleMetrum v1.1 hardware. Sources for the flash
memory part used in v1.0 dried up, so v1.1 uses a different
part which required a new driver and support for explicit
flight log erasing.
-
Multiple flight log support. This stores more than one
flight log in the on-board flash memory. It also requires
the user to explicitly erase flights so that you won’t lose
flight logs just because you fly the same board twice in one
day.
-
Telemetry support for devices with serial number >= 256.
Previous versions used a telemetry packet format that
provided only 8 bits for the device serial number. This
change requires that both ends of the telemetry link be
running the 0.9 firmware or they will not communicate.
-
Support for telemetry format changes.
-
Support for multiple flight logs.
