Payload Commands #54

Open austrian-code-wizard opened 3 years ago

austrian-code-wizard commented 3 years ago

Our payload computer is connected to the flight computer and a radio. As one of the next steps, we want to test the connection between the payload and the flight computer. This task is about coming up with and implementing a minimum set of commands to demonstrate the message passing between the two.

Steps:

  1. Decide what commands would be most useful for such a test. For this, contact Zach Witzel & coordinate with him since he apparently worked on this previously.
  2. Rework how our serialInNode and the command node work. Right now they are hard-coded for one test command. Implement a smarter way to do this, so we can easily define new commands anytime we want.
  3. Try out the connection between Pycubed and payload (this will be together with the rest of the software team)
