OpenFFBoard v1.9.6

Firmware changes

Changes since v1.8:

• Added analog filter option
• Main effect loop runs in higher priority thread than idle
• Added ADS111X analog source
• Added user configurable axis encoder ratios for setups with reductions
• Added effect filter option (Speed/accel filter presets for different encoders)
• Added effects monitoring
• Added some analog autorange margin
• Added min/max commands to analog processing for manual ranges
• Added analog processing functions to ADS111X
• Selecting a "none" encoder will remove the axis value. Allows analog inputs to be used as the primary axis.
• Added constant force rate command
• Highly improved uart command stability (default baud rate 115200)
• Added command to check command flags (cls.cmdinfo?cmdid)
• Added advanced filter mode to switch between custom and default conditional effect output filters ("fx.filterProfile_id")
• Automatic flash erase condition changed from major version change to separate flash version counter

Configurator changes

Changes since v1.8:

• Added analog filter option
• Added ADS111X source dialog
• Added manual range tuning option for local analog and ADS111X
• Automatically connects at startup if one supported FFBoard device is found
• Many small fixes for stability

Updater:

• Added update browser (Help->updates)
• Added automatic update notifications for firmware and GUI if detected

Redesign:

• Redesigned UI layout
• Added effect monitoring windows
• Added advanced effect tuning window
• Added encoder filter tuning window
• Added basic profile management system
• Added encoder gear reduction option (For belt/gear driven wheels if there is a reduction between the wheel and encoder. Prescales all internal positions)
• Added constant force rate readout

Fixed since 1.8.6:

• Fixed serial port not writing pending data on reset/reboot/mainclass change
• Fixed UI crashing on configurator update notification
