v2.1
This v2.1 release includes some bug fixes and enhancements to the v2.0 code
New to this version from the v2.0 release:
- Adds new FUNcube mode 7 (set by the pushbutton with seven blinks of the green Power LED or by the command
CubeSatSim/config -j) which simulates the BPSK 1200bps telemetry of AMSAT-UK FUNcube AO-73 and others such as JY1Sat JO-97. (A decoder is in FIABv4 Beta also to be released https://cubesatsim.org/download/fiabv4-beta.iso.zip ) - Improvements to Repeater mode 6 (set by the pushbutton with six blinks of the green Power LED or by the command
CubeSatSim/config -e) to make it a Cross Band Repeater with default transmit frequency of 144.9 MHz (or transmit frequency - 290 MHz if changed with CubeSatSim/config -e` command) and working Command and Control (C2). - C2C improvements such as adding C to CW ID when the CubeSatSim powers up and only wait 20 seconds for USB sound card on power up.
- Simulated telemetry current and battery voltage fixes
- Battery2 voltage and current used in low voltage detection and APRS and SSTV display
- Pushbutton supports all seven modes with faster blinking
