ID Parameter for Commands #1735

Closed gminn closed 2 years ago

gminn commented 2 years ago

When is the ID_PARAMETER for commands used to identify commands? I understand the concept of telemetry having ID parameters so that incoming packets can be identified and classified properly but I'm not seeing a similar need for the command ID parameter.

We save a binary file of commands. When we read back that file we have to identify the commands similarly to the telemetry. The ID parameter is what we use to ID both.

Thank you for the answer! When is the binary file saved and when is it read back? What I'm getting at here is, if some packets have the same ID parameter, when would that be an issue?

Yes you want to have unique ID parameters for both commands and telemetry
