Andrew Tridgell 63d768143d Compass: enable compass offsets for HIL compass
this makes the null_offsets algorithm have an effect for the HIL
compass that is used for SITL, which makes for easier testing of
compass calibration

Andrew Tridgell c39914e734 DCM: added a SITL_debug() for DCM normalisation errors
I have seen normalisation errors during simulation runs, but have not
yet tracked down the cause. This log message may help track things
down.
2012-02-15 08:50:45 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 7355f5613c added SITL_debug() macro
this can be used to print a message into the logs in the SITL
simulator. This will be used for critical conditions.

Andrew Tridgell ee2cb32a44 change back to 256 max variables in _var_info[]
this keeps the header to 24 bits, and allows the token to be 16
bits. If we need more variables we can put them in a nested group.

Andrew Tridgell 6cf7015859 added indexes to group info structures 2012-02-13 16:22:52 +11:00
Andrew Tridgell 7621b96a52 AP_Param: added group idx, and change packing of header elements
adding a idx element to the GroupInfo will make it less likely that a
developer will change the IDs of group elements, and make it easier to
see that these IDs are important for identifying a variable in EEPROM

The header packing has changed to make it 24 bits on all platforms,
which allows us to lower the EEPROM variable max size to 1024 bytes
again

Doug Weibel e109992c12 Add a CLI setup action to reset the magnetometer offsets
Since the magnetometer offsets are not available through the MAVLink parameter interface (since they are an AP_Var vector) this little feature allows them to be reset from the CLI.  Useful if you somehow get bad offsets or if you change magnetometer.  If you have a bad set of large offset values I have seen issues with the nulling algorithm have trouble converging to the proper values.  I have never seen it have trouble converging from 0/0/0, so this could be a useful feature from time to time.

Andrew Tridgell 817e7442bd baro: fixed an integer overflow issue at high altitudes
the averaging array was using 16 bit numbers, but we are storing
numbers with 19 significant bits. That caused overflow at high
altitude, and some very interesting altitude graphs!

Thanks to Michael Oborne for spotting this in a log

Doug Weibel 622217357c Bug fix for compass.
This is a fix for an interesting bug when a DCM matrix reset was added to the ground start.  This bug only showed up if (A) a ground start were performed after an air start or due to use of the "Calibrate Gryo" action, (B) if the current orientation were sufficiently different from 0/0/0, and (C.) if the particular magnetometer had sufficiently large offsets.  Why did resetting the DCM matrix to 0/0/0 pitch/roll/yaw at ground start cause a bug?  The magnetometer offset nulling determines the proper offsets for the magnetometer by comparing the observed change in the magnetic field vector with the expected change due to rotation as calculated from the rotation in the DCM matrix.  This comparison is made at 10Hz, and then filtered with a weight based on the amount of rotation to estimate the offsets. Normally it would take considerable time at normal in-flight rotation rates for the offset estimate to converge. 

If a DCM matrix reset occurs when the offset nulling algorithm is up and running, the algorithm sees the DCM reset as a instantaneous rotation, however the magnetic field vector did not change at all.  Under certain conditions the algorithm would interpret this as indicating that the offset(s) should be very large.  Since the "rotation" could also have been large the filter weighting would be large and it was possible for a large erroneous estimate of the offset(s) to be made based on this single (bad) data point.

To fix this bug methods were added to the compass object to start and stop the offset nulling algorithm.  Further, when the algorithm is started, it is set up to get fresh samples.  The DCM matrix reset method now calls these new methods to stop the offset nulling before resetting the matrix, and resume after the matrix has been reset.
