Small fix--Pacsat software x0.1f
by Burns Fisher (AMSAT) 07 Aug '23

07 Aug '23

I removed testing to see whether Golf i2c devices are there. They are not, and it makes boot slower and messes up the display for "get i2c". I also made "get i2c" more clear. 73, Burns Fisher, WB1FJ *AMSAT(R) Engineering -- Flight Software*

Re: i2c data

Ignore it. The three ADCs are on Golf only, but at least one has the same address as the temp sensor, which is why it is showing up as true. I'm not sure why the temp sensor is showing up as false, but again, it is probably a screwup. I'll remove that stuff. 73, Burns Fisher, WB1FJ *AMSAT(R) Engineering -- Flight Software* On Mon, Aug 7, 2023 at 3:25 PM Bill Reed via pacsat-dev < pacsat-dev(a)amsat.org> wrote: > Any idea what this is telling us: > > Pacsat> > Pacsat>get i2c > I2c device state: > ICR ADC: 1 Solar ADC: 0, CSS ADC: 0 > RT-IHU Temp 0 > Pacsat> > > > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > pacsat-dev mailing list -- pacsat-dev(a)amsat.org > View archives of this mailing list at > https://mailman.amsat.org/hyperkitty/list/pacsat-dev@amsat.org > To unsubscribe send an email to pacsat-dev-leave(a)amsat.org > Manage all of your AMSAT-NA mailing list preferences at > https://mailman.amsat.org >

Re: RSSI reading
by Burns Fisher (AMSAT) 07 Aug '23

07 Aug '23

If you say "get rssi" it is read from the register right then and there. It looks like (need to ask Chris) it also checks the RSSI before it accepts a package, and in that case it also prints it out only moments after it took it. And it looks like it is only accepting (and printing) it if it is greater than 170 (raw value) which I think is -85dBm. 73, Burns Fisher, WB1FJ *AMSAT(R) Engineering -- Flight Software* On Mon, Aug 7, 2023 at 3:13 PM Bill Reed via pacsat-dev < pacsat-dev(a)amsat.org> wrote: > When is the RSSI reading taken?
