    Version 1.9.4

    +

    Version 1.9.9

    +
    +
    +

    This release contains a critical bug fix for a problem +introduced in version 1.9.8 for TeleMega and EasyMega +boards. This problem occurs when using the stored +configuration from 1.9.7 or earlier.

    +
    +
    +

    If you are running 1.9.8 or are upgrading from 1.9.8 on any +version of TeleMega or EasyMega, you must reconfigure all pyro +channels, recalibrate accelerometers, reset the APRS interval, +adjust the beep tone and reset the pyro time.

    F.1.1. AltOS

    • +

      Fix EasyMega and TeleMega upgrade process from 1.9.7 or +earlier. 1.9.8 introduced larger delay values, which +required modifying the configuration in-place, and the 1.9.8 +version had a flaw which broke the pyro channel config and +all of the config values beyond that in memory, including +APRS interval, IMU accel calibation, beep tone and pyro +time.

      +
      • +
    • +

      Fix TeleMega v5.0 mag sensor driver. This driver was quite +broken due to developing it in the presence of the magnetic +beeper on the board. Because of that beeper, the values this +sensor records are not accurate. Fortunately, they are not +used for controlling the flight.

      +
      • +
    +
    +
    +
    +

    F.1.2. AltosUI

    +
    +
      +
    • +

      Parse TeleMega v5.0 log files. A missing check in the code +meant that the TeleMega v5.0 log files would cause an error +when attempting to load them. Logs saved with AltosUI +1.9.8 were not affected, only the presentation of the data +was broken.

      Add Booster mode for all dual-deploy altimeters. Select +"Separation & Apogee" mode in AltosUI to fire the 'main' +channel at first motor burnout and the 'apogee' channel at +apogee.

      +
      • +
    • +

      Improve reliability of stm32l firmware under heavy +load. This was found using Monitor Idle on TeleMega with all +flash slots full of data which would occasionally lock up.

      +
      • +
    • +

      Fix orientation label in AltosUI for devices with +radios. This makes the orientation say 'Antenna up' and +'Antenna Down' for TeleMetrum and TeleMega again.

      +
      • +
    • +

      Fix log data for pyro channels which were inhibited (often +because of a tilt limit). They used to report 'fired' as +soon as they were inhibited, which was misleading. Now they +never report as having been fired.

      +
      • +
    • +

      Allow Igniter Test to fire each igniter more than once.

      +
      • +

      +
      • +
    • +
