1.7.1
3782504

CRITICAL - The bootloader must be updated prior to loading this firmware.

  1. Ensure uINS Firmware is Running - (This step is not necessary if the uINS firmware is running and the EvalTool is communicating with the uINS). Select the device serial port and update the firmware using 1.6.4 or earlier. If the bootloader is running, version information will not appear in the EvalTool. The following bootloader update step will not work unless the EvalTool is communicating with the uINS firmware.
  2. Update the Bootloader - Enable EvalTool Internal Mode to expose the "SAM-BA" button. Restore the bootloader firmware using the "SAM-BA" button in the EvalTool Settings tab to load the bootloader firmware. If it has a fading cyan color on the uINS module, the bootloader is running and ready for new firmware to be loaded.
  3. Update the Firmware - to the latest uINS firmware version.
  • uINS-3 firmware v1.7.1 b3952_2018-11-03_140140
  • EvalTool v1.7.1 b97_2018-11-03_135816

NEW FEATURES:

  • (uINS) Created ASCII $INFO message which contains version information.
  • (uINS) Persistent messages remember the current communications config on startup.
  • (EvalTool) Logger tab replaced with Data Logs tab, which is the new location to enable persistent messages.
  • (RTK) RTK base position is not broadcast if not valid to help users identify base should be surveyed.

BREAKING CHANGES:

  • (SDK) Com Manager Get Data function period parameter is no longer in milliseconds. Rather, it is the data source period multiple. This allows for controlling of message data rates for all messages, including RMC messages.

CHANGES:

  • (uINS) Accuracy improvement for slow velocity (walking speed) navigation.
  • (uINS) DID_CONFIG (config_t) refactored, which effects the software reset interface.
  • (RMC) Method for reducing data rate of each messages added to RMC.

BUG FIXES:

  • (uINS) Fixed GPS time of week timestamp roll over issue that occurs at end of the week.
  • (RTK / Dual GNSS) Fix for status indicator and LED display error.
  • (uINS) EKF alignment on startup issue fixed.
  • (Dual GNSS) Fixed status indicator.
  • (EvalTool) RTK base survey start/cancel button glitch.
  • (uAHRS) Addressed alignment issue in AHRS mode when mag is not calibrated.
  • (uINS) Fixed timestamp glitch issue which added noise onto INS output timestamp.

KNOWN ISSUES

  • (uINS) Base outage and cycle slip detection and recovery. RTK sometimes requires a reset to get fix following an outage of base data.
  • (uINS) Firmware can become bricked if loaded using old bootloader. Please update bootloader prior to updating firmware.
