TeleMini v3 is 0.5 inches by 1.67 inches. It was
designed to fit inside an 18mm air-frame tube, but using it in
the left power switch wire. Hook a lead to either of the
mounting holes for a ground connection.
+ === Using Packet Link Mode with TeleMini
+
+ After TeleMini powers up, it will check to see if some
+ device is attempting to communicate with it using
+ Packet Link Mode. If so, it will switch to idle mode
+ and start communicating. To switch to flight mode,
+ reboot the device either over the radio link or by
+ powering it off and back on.
+
+ If no ground station is attempting to communicate
+ using Packet Link Mode, TeleMini will enter pad mode
+ and prepare for flight.
+
+ The sequence of operations to use Packet Link Mode
+ with TeleMini is:
+
+ 1. Configure the ground station data rate, frequency
+ and callsign to match the TeleMini settings.
+
+ 2. Start Packet Link Mode in the ground station by
+ selecting the desired operation (Safe Flight Data,
+ Configure Altimeter, Fire Igniter or Monitor
+ Idle). Select the TeleBT or TeleDongle device. The
+ red LED should begin flashing rapidly.
+
+ 3. Turn on TeleMini. You should see the red LED flash
+ very rapidly during the initial communication burst,
+ but it should then slow down when the link is idle.
+
+ Once TeleMini is in Idle mode, it will stay in that
+ mode until rebooted. That means you can stop one
+ Packet Link operation, wait a while and start another
+ Packet Link operation.
+
+ === Forcing TeleMini radio parameters to known defaults
+
+ If you don't know what the TeleMini frequency and
+ callsign settings are, you can temporarily force it
+ back to the original default values (frequency
+ 434.550MHz, callsign N0CALL) by connecting a wire
+ between hole 3 and hole 7 on the debug connector. Hole
+ 3 has the square pad around it, hole 7 is the one
+ nearest the MS5607 baro sensor, which is a rectangular
+ component with a metal cap that has two holes in it.
+
+ Once TeleMini has been powered up with this wire
+ connected, the wire may be removed. The radio
+ parameters will stay set to these default values until
+ changed by the user or when the device is rebooted.
