in r569 (now dev20120219) the aux control uppmost bit is used for transporting state

Code: Select all

      for(i=0;i<CHECKBOXITEMS;i++) {            
         serialize8(activate1[i]);
         serialize8(activate2[i] | (rcOptions[i]<<7) ); // use highest bit to transport state in mwc        
    }  

The GUI uses this information for lighting up red indicators with multiwii sw r569 or later.

EOSBandi wrote:Yes it is supported, just make sure you choose the right mw version at the gui settings tab, or in the settings wizard.

When I turn the copter to the east the west indicator is on top of the plane and otherwise.
North and south are correct.

R u sure that your mag orientation is OK ? Does it act the same in MultiWiiConf too ?

With the WinGui it's like I described, and as you see I'm not the only one .

I saw Alex just released the next dev, it can't communicate with WinGUI...
Alexinparis, EOSBandi, I'm wondering on once figure out the structure of serial datas and in future dev versions don't change so there won't be any version missmatch...
What do you think?

Alexinparis wrote:Hi,
I confirm the dev of today works fine with WinGUI.
The last changes were:

Code: Select all

      serialize8(accMode|baroMode<<1|magMode<<2|GPSModeHome<<3|GPSModeHold<<4|armed<<5);

and:

Code: Select all

      serialize16(-GPS_directionToHome);

Because according to nhadrian, GPS Home is pointed at the opposite direction in the GUI.

But nothing significant for the GUI Serial protocol.
The serial protocol won't evolve until the 2.0

I confirm also that E and W are inverted in WinGUI.

A small problem with displayed motors bar-graph.
With Tri-Copter....
When #define MOTOR_STOP is enabled, and rcValue[THROTTLE] < 1100, the bar-graph for each motor indicates FULL,
and each motor displays a value of 9050.

Thanks again! Being able to save and re-load set-ups is awesome!

For GPS direction indication, we should check the GPS calculations instead of doing some sign tricks...
For further GPS codes it will be neccessary that home direction point from actual to home.

i just read one of my saved xml-setting files from wingui 1.04

i found this

Code: Select all

<RCRATE value="45" />

in gui the value is 90!!

the saved value is allways the half of the gui value.

can someone confirm this?


is it a bug or an undocumented feature?

  rcRate8 = 45; // = 0.9 in GUI

The gui is checking the packetsize to see if its correct.

It can be the range of your X-bees is on the limit.

It means that your optionsconfig19.xml or optionsconfig20.xml (depends on your MultiWii version) is corrupted. I recommend to download again the latest 1.04 and copy back these files...
