TELEMTRY
n
( n = 0 - 255)
default 0
A telemetry beacon is sent every n*10 seconds. If n = 0, the beacon is disabled.
The telemetry beacon is a UI frame sent to BEACON. If there is a current
UNPROTO digipeat path, it will be used to transmit the telemetry beacon.
The data in the UI frame is in the form: “T#nnn,an0,an1,an2,an3,an4,bbbbbbbb”,
where:
•
“nnn” is a decimal count for the telemetry beacon and is incremented
each time the beacon is sent. When first used, or after the unit is reset,
the beacon counter begins at 001 (T#001). After reaching 999 (T#999),
the counter cycles around to 000 (T#000).
•
“an0", ”an1", “an2", ”an3", and “an4" are the decimal readings on the
corresponding analog inputs of the 68HC11F1 (the KAM’98
microprocessor).
+ Hint: See ANALOG command for more information.
•
“bbbbbbbb” is the binary reading of the 8 pins on PORT E of the
68HC11F (PORT E is a shared port with the analog inputs), where
“b” = “1" means a Logic High on the pin and ”b" = “0" means a Logic
Low on the pin. The first ”b" in the string of 8 binary digits is the most
significant bit of PORT E and the last “b” is the least significant bit of
PORT E.
+ Hint: For details on the 8 pins on PORT E, see the KAM’98 schematic.
See the “Modes of Operation” section for more information on the use of telem-
etry along with GPS.
Leading zeros are shown for all telemetry readings.
