dshot

Source: drivers/dshot

Description

This is the DShot output driver. It is similar to the fmu driver, and can be used as drop-in replacement to use DShot as ESC communication protocol instead of PWM.

On startup, the module tries to occupy all available pins for DShot output. It skips all pins already in use (e.g. by a camera trigger module).

It supports:

DShot150, DShot300, DShot600, DShot1200
telemetry via separate UART and publishing as esc_status message
sending DShot commands via CLI

Examples

Permanently reverse motor 1:

dshot reverse -m 1
dshot save -m 1

After saving, the reversed direction will be regarded as the normal one. So to reverse again repeat the same commands.

gps

Source: drivers/gps

Description

GPS driver module that handles the communication with the device and publishes the position via uORB. It supports multiple protocols (device vendors) and by default automatically selects the correct one.

The module supports a secondary GPS device, specified via -e parameter. The position will be published on the second uORB topic instance, but it's currently not used by the rest of the system (however the data will be logged, so that it can be used for comparisons).

Implementation

There is a thread for each device polling for data. The GPS protocol classes are implemented with callbacks so that they can be used in other projects as well (eg. QGroundControl uses them too).

Examples

Starting 2 GPS devices (the main GPS on /dev/ttyS3 and the secondary on /dev/ttyS4):

gps start -d /dev/ttyS3 -e /dev/ttyS4

Initiate warm restart of GPS device

gps reset warm

Usage

ina220

Source: drivers/power_monitor/ina220

Description

Driver for the INA220 power monitor.

Multiple instances of this driver can run simultaneously, if each instance has a separate bus OR I2C address.

For example, one instance can run on Bus 2, address 0x41, and one can run on Bus 2, address 0x43.

If the INA220 module is not powered, then by default, initialization of the driver will fail. To change this, use the -f flag. If this flag is set, then if initialization fails, the driver will keep trying to initialize again every 0.5 seconds. With this flag set, you can plug in a battery after the driver starts, and it will work. Without this flag set, the battery must be plugged in before starting the driver.

Usage

ina220 <command> [arguments...]
 Commands:
   start
