==== Programming the Mega ====


Program fuses using AtmelStudio and Olimex AVR-ISP500 - STK500 programmer.

The Olimex AVR-ISP500 has an external clock output on ICSP10 pin 3 for rescuing AVRs 
with enabled external clock fuse but no external clock  This clock output can be really 
helpful when target AVR is accidentally programmed with External Clock FUSE option. 
To resurrect it just wire ICSP10 pin 3 to XTAL1 pin of the target AVR chip and initiate a
programming session to fix the FUSE values.

Power from external battery.

Explore WatchDog Timer and set fuse WDTON - "Watchdog Timer Always On" -

==== Arduino ====

Arduinio Software Serial library doesn't support 4mhz clocks - so I created a SoftwareSerial4Mhz with just a 9600 baud line - works fine, verified timing with scope to the best of my ability.

<code>
#elif F_CPU == 4000000

static const DELAY_TABLE table[] PROGMEM = 
{
  //  baud    rxcenter    rxintra    rxstop  tx
  { 9600,     19,         54,        54,     51,    },
};

const int XMIT_START_ADJUSTMENT = 3;
</code>

Arduinio wiring.c does not support 4Mhz clocks, so delays in the code will be wrong I think - either edit your delays (/2) or edit wiring.c

Added a section to boards.txt to tell the Arduinio IDE about the board:

<code>

Added a section to programmers.txt to tell it about my serial Olimex AVR-ISP500, or you can just flash the
hex file directly from Atmel Studio.

===== Habhub Payload Config =====

Using the form [[http://habitat.habhub.org/genpayload/|here]] I generated a payload config:

Payload Name: G7PMO $$HABTRK

Primary, 434.150, USB, RTTY, 470, ASCII-7, 50 Baud, Parity none, 1 Stop bits.

{"type":"payload_configuration","name":"G7PMO $$HABTRK","time_created":"2013-08-03T12:21:33+01:00","metadata":{"description":"G7PMO's HABTRK Tracker"},"transmissions":[{"frequency":434150000,"modulation":"RTTY","mode":"USB","encoding":"ASCII-7","parity":"none","stop":1,"shift":470,"baud":50,"description":"Primary"}],"sentences":[{"protocol":"UKHAS","callsign":"HABTRK","checksum":"crc16-ccitt","fields":[{"name":"sentence_id","sensor":"base.ascii_int"},{"name":"time","sensor":"stdtelem.time"},{"name":"latitude","sensor":"stdtelem.coordinate","format":"dd.dddd"},{"name":"longitude","sensor":"stdtelem.coordinate","format":"dd.dddd"},{"name":"altitude","sensor":"base.ascii_int"},{"name":"satellites","sensor":"base.ascii_int"},{"name":"battery","sensor":"base.ascii_int"},{"name":"temperature_rfm22b","sensor":"base.ascii_int"}],"filters":{"post":[{"filter":"common.numeric_scale","factor":0.001,"round":3,"source":"battery","type":"normal"},{"filter":"common.invalid_gps_lock","ok":[4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20],"source":"satellites","type":"normal"}]},"description":"$$HABTRK Std format"}]}

Doc ID: e55cc3ffb42062c70087dae3d9520903

Note the filter I use to identify if I have a satellite fix "{"filter":"common.invalid_gps_lock","type":"normal","ok":[4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20],"source":"satellites"}"

I should really implement another variable in the sentence to define lock directly for the PUBX code, but I am told the above should do what I want it to do.
