System Modes #3

Closed rland93 closed 9 months ago

rland93 commented 9 months ago

Create system modes for flight mode and data download mode.

Flight mode:

Our typical flight and data logging tasks are all running
Basically it is the existing system
For safety, no way to exit flight mode from any event which occurs inside of flight mode

The transition between the two modes occurs when the USB port is connected to a host PC. We can use interrupts to accomplish this, I think?

Data mode:

Flight tasks are suspended
USB task is running
Can connect to the device over COM

OK, I think the way I do this is just checking for a USB device at boot. If there is a USB device present, I will boot into data mode, if not I boot into flight mode.
