-- This script is an example of manipulating the message stream rates -- -- It will periodically run and adjust all the messages to their desired loop rates -- It can be modified to only run once, however some GCS's will manipulate the rates -- during the initial connection, so by resetting them periodically we ensure we get -- the expected telemetry rate local MAV_SEVERITY = {EMERGENCY=0, ALERT=1, CRITICAL=2, ERROR=3, WARNING=4, NOTICE=5, INFO=6, DEBUG=7} local loop_time = 5000 -- number of ms between runs -- mavlink message ids local AHRS_ID = uint32_t(163) local AHRS2_ID = uint32_t(178) local ATTITUDE_ID = uint32_t(30) --local EKF_STATUS_REPORT_ID = uint32_t(193) --local GLOBAL_POSITION_INT_ID = uint32_t(33) --local GPS_RAW_INT_ID = uint32_t(24) --local LOCAL_POSITION_NED_ID = uint32_t(32) --local NAV_CONTROLLER_OUTPUT_ID = uint32_t(62) --local POWER_STATUS_ID = uint32_t(125) --local RAW_IMU_ID = uint32_t(27) --local RC_CHANNELS_ID = uint32_t(65) --local SERVO_OUTPUT_RAW_ID = uint32_t(36) --local SYS_STATUS_ID = uint32_t(1) --local SYSTEM_TIME_ID = uint32_t(2) --local VFR_HUD_ID = uint32_t(74) --local VIBRATION_ID = uint32_t(241) --local WIND_ID = uint32_t(168) -- serial port local serial_port = 0 -- intervals is a table which contains a table for each entry we want to adjust -- each entry is arranged as {the serial link to adjust, the mavlink message ID, and the broadcast interval in Hz} local intervals = {{serial_port, ATTITUDE_ID, 2.0}, -- ATTITUDE, 2Hz {serial_port, AHRS_ID, 5.0}, -- AHRS, 5Hz {serial_port, AHRS2_ID, 0}, -- AHRS2, 0hz } -- print welcome message gcs:send_text(MAV_SEVERITY.INFO, "Loaded message_interval.lua") function update() -- this is the loop which periodically runs for i = 1, #intervals do -- we want to iterate over every specified interval local channel, message, interval_hz = table.unpack(intervals[i]) -- this extracts the channel, MAVLink ID, and interval local interval_us = -1 if interval_hz > 0 then interval_us = math.floor(1000000 / interval_hz) -- convert the interval to microseconds end gcs:set_message_interval(channel, message, interval_us) -- actually sets the interval as appropriate end return update, loop_time -- reschedules the loop end return update() -- run immediately before starting to reschedule
