[Paparazzi-devel] Link lock-up?

[Steven Wawryk]

Hi,

We have recently got some TWOG and GPS13 hardware.  I have a bench set-up with a 
simple flight plan to test some airborne module code I've written.  I'm using 
the FTDI USB to serial board/cable as the link between my development PC and 
paparazzi.

I am finding that the everything starts up fine, waiting for the GPS to lock, 
then setting the nav coordinates and advancing to the holding point.

When I double-click on another flight plan block, everything locks up.  I have 
noticed that at this point the link indicator in the strip starts counting 
seconds from zero and then goes red.  No more messages get displayed in the 
messages tool.

This happens at link baud rates of 9600, 57600 and 115200.  (Yes, I do change 
the baud rate both for the ground station in control_panel.xml and autopilot in 
the makefile section of the airframe file - comms does work correctly up till 
this point).

Has anybody encountered this before, or have any idea what might be happening?

Cheers,
Steve
