Flashed STM32 and ESP32_sketch_BT_WLAN.ino and connected GNSS Antenna:

No-SD-Card Inserted

  • Red GNSS PPS LED shows working GNSS
  • Only blue System LED blinks
  • Connection via Bluetooth is possible, but no data is transmitted

Reset after inserted a SD-Card with only the file Configuration_files/sensor_config.txt on the sd_card :

  • GNSS PPS, blue System and after a while blue GNSS leds are blinking
  • NMEA Data is received via Bluetooth.
  • There are no flight data record files on the SD-Card.
  • There are empty crashdump files and eeprom dump files recored on the sd-card

Retest with an additional "enable.logger" dummy file on the sd-card to enable flight data logging

  • the sd-card led starts blinking
  • a 230225_094824.f37 flight data file is recorded.

Do we need to remove the sensor_config.txt file after an initial configuration from the sd-card to prevent resetting changed calibration parameters in the eeprom after every reboot? #36 Renamed file to _disabled_sensor_config.txt on the sd card

  • There are always two flight data (f.37) files recorded after a system start. A small one after 1 minute runtime and a second one for the remaining uptime.
  • There are also two eeprom ore more dump files recorded for a single power cycle.
  • It seems that there is one reset happening during startup it no sensor_config.txt file exists.

Content from sd card after running some time:

  • Why do we have *.f92 and crashdump files?
  • Why *.f37 files now? Does this break compatibility?

Tested with another 12V Power Supply via RJ45 instead of the USB Power Supply. Sensor consumes (active sd card logging) around 126 - 140mA with Bluetooth connected and 92 - 102mA with no paired Bluetooth connection.

  • Resets still occur from time to time so they are not related to a unstable power supply.
  • observed 13 Resets in 84 minutes
  • It seems that resets are happening more frequently if the GNSS antenna is moved indoors.
