It displays the received +telemetry data, and reports flight status via voice synthesis. All +received telemetry information is recorded to a file. +.P +When connected to a TeleMetrum device, altosui can be used to configure the +TeleMetrum, and to downloads the eeprom data and store it in a file. +.P +A number of other menu options exist, including the ability to export flight +data in different formats. +.SH FILES +All data log files are recorded into a user-specified directory +(default ~/TeleMetrum). Files are named using the current date, the serial +number of the reporting device, the flight number recorded in the data +and either '.telem' for telemetry data or '.eeprom' for eeprom data. +.SH AUTHOR +Keith Packard
