Embedded SW Release note - Version 1.3.10.2 - Itma Candidate 3
=============================================================
Machine:
Watchdog restart time is now 20 seconds, to avoid unintended restarts
Modules:
IDS - Build pressure on job prepare. currently hard coded: building on 480, for at least bar, or 1 minute.
Heaters: do not restart the heating controlled process if the setpoint does not changes
blower activated even if cfg not found - at 3000mV
Connection: Embedded does not reconnect until HW is initialized
Alarm handling: many unusful alarm removed: motors, heating process, midtank empty
Diagnostic data reduced significantly in frequency
Waste state machine disabled for ITMA
improve backlash after homing
Drivers:
VOC Gas sensor fixes.
Lubricant valve workaround until FPGA will be fixed
Encoder screw reading prepared (FPGA needs to be changed)
improve dispenser type identification
tech board support handling of lubricant valve
disable watchdog on DFU detection
prevent reading of current and midtank pressure at the same time, in millisec task
Other:
fix double report bug
improve file system handling
keepalive cosequences REMOVED (itma)
progress stub: 0xCF - init flash; 0xDF - power off sequence; 0xDE - read dispenser info; 0xC - gas sensor;
Procedures:
Initializing - Dispensers Pressure buildup removed. AUTOMATIC HEATING ENABLED;
Power down waits up to 1 hour (instead of 30 minutes) for cooling down
Embedded SW Release note - Version 1.3.9.5 - Itma Candidate 2
=============================================================
WATCHDOG Activated - embedded SW reset after 4 seconds of inactivity
Flash size problem fixed
Machine:
Cartridge buttons and leds fixed
midtank pressure calculation set according to Sergey's directions
support for new dispensers improved
Modules:
Alarm handling - midtank level (does not prevent jobs or dispensers refill)
Diagnostics: thread information removed to reduce the trasmission quantities and MS load
Heaters algorithm improved (yet again)
IDS: lubricant handling adjusted
file handling and brushstops activity fixed (large jobs)
automatic homing CANCELLED
Stubs: added support for FFS recreating
Embedded SW Release note - Version 1.3.9.1 - Itma Candidate 1
=============================================================
Jobs:
Multiple segments, gradients, job is downloaded as a file, lubrication, automatic refill at the end of a job
Machine:
Power Idle
Power down sequence
Initialization sequence - reads midtank pressure.
Drivers support for hardware upgrades and variations
Buttons support
Waste handling
Modules:
Temperature - mitigate spikes, handle algorithm better. SW thermal cut off
Preparation for logs ditributor - not operativer yet.
File download on lower priority, blocked when a job is active. improved FPGA upgrade process
preparation for watchdog
communication: dispenser data request. some stubs removed. InterfaceIOs - only supported. additional event types, not supported yet (machine state, VOC). additional embedded parameters
----------------------------------------------------------------
Embedded SW Release note - Version 1.3.8.2
File upload: prevent on job, reduce priority (watchdog)
Report: packages filters introduced, please feel free to use them.
robustness in communication improved
large number of segments and gradient support - initial
at the end of job the screw does not return back
