= Release Notes for Version 1.6.3
include::release-head.adoc[]
:doctype: article
Version 1.6.3 adds idle mode to AltosDroid and has bug fixes
for our host software on desktops, laptops an android devices
along with BlueTooth support for Windows.
== AltOS
AltOS fixes:
* Fix hardware flow control on TeleBT v3.0. RTS/CTS is
wired backwards on this board, switch from using the
hardware to driving these pins with software.
== AltosUI and TeleGPS Applications
AltosUI and TeleGPS New Features:
* Add BlueTooth support for Windows operating system. This
supports connections to TeleBT over BlueTooth rather than
just USB.
AltosUI and TeleGPS Fixes:
* Change Java detection and install on Windows. Detection is
now done by looking for the 'javaw.exe' program, and
installation by opening a browser on the java.com web site.
* Delay polling while the Fire Igniters is visible to allow
for TeleMega to report back complete status over the radio.
* Disallow changing RF calibration numbers in the
configuration UI. There's no good reason to change this from
the field, and recovering is really hard if you haven't
written down the right number.
* Fix USB device discovery on Mac OS X El Capitan. This makes
the connected Altus Metrum USB devices appear again.
* Fix acceleration data presented in MonitorIdle mode for
TeleMetrum v2.0 flight computers.
== AltosDroid
AltosDroid new features:
* Monitor Idle mode. Check state of flight computer while in
idle mode over the radio link
* Fire Igniters. Remotely fire ignires for recovery system
ground tests.
* Remote reboot. Cause the flight computer to reboot over the
radio link. This provides a method for switching the flight
computer from idle to flight mode without needing to reach
the power switch.
* Configurable frequency menu. Change the set of available
frequencies and provide more descriptive names.
AltosDroid bug fixes:
* Don't set target location if GPS hasn't locked yet.
* Fix saving target states so they can be reloaded when the
application restarts. When the application is shut down and
restarted, all previous target state information will be
restored (including GPS position if available).
* Fix crash on some Android devices for offline maps when
changing the map scale or location.
* Don't require USB OTG support. This kept the latest
AltosDroid from being offered on devices without USB device
support, although it can work without that just fine using
BlueTooth.
* Don't require bluetooth to be enabled. This allows the
application to operate with USB devices or just show old
data without turning on the bluetooth radio.
* Recover old tracker positions when restarting
application. This finally allows you to safely stop and
restart the application without losing the last known
location of any tracker.
== Documentation
* Document TeleMega and EasyMega additional pyro channel
continuity audio alert pattern.
