Re: [Paparazzi-devel] adding a telemetry message

[Refik Sever]

Hello,

I found the error in build. DOWNLINK_SEND_IVMEOLCER is not defined. Therefore, I added these lines to var/include/messages.h file.  It was not written in the wiki, we must add it.

#define DOWNLINK_SEND_IVMEOLCER(_trans, _dev, phi, psi, theta){ \
    if (DownlinkCheckFreeSpace(_trans, _dev, DownlinkSizeOf(_trans, _dev, 0+4+4+4))) {\
      DownlinkCountBytes(_trans, _dev, DownlinkSizeOf(_trans, _dev, 0+4+4+4)); \
      DownlinkStartMessage(_trans, _dev, "ATTITUDE", DL_ATTITUDE, 0+4+4+4) \
      DownlinkPutFloatByAddr(_trans, _dev, (phi)); \
      DownlinkPutFloatByAddr(_trans, _dev, (psi)); \
      DownlinkPutFloatByAddr(_trans, _dev, (theta)); \
      DownlinkEndMessage(_trans, _dev ) \
    } else \
      DownlinkOverrun(_trans, _dev ); \
}

Now it builds succesfully, but when I started GCS and messages tool, I can not see IVMEOLCER message in the list. I think that I must change or add something more. In the var/include/messages.h file, there is a define of MSG_telemetry_LENGTHS. I think that I must also update this section, but I don't know how.

Could you please send suggestions about adding IVMEOLCER message?

Cheers,

Refik
