Re: [Paparazzi-devel] re: razor imu

[Felix Ruess]

Hi Ana,

I just merged Christophe's fastperiodic branch (which as the name says allows to set a separate Periodic/IMU freq, Propagation Freq and Correction Freq). Have a look at conf/airframes/TU_Delft/MicrojetCDW.xml if you are interested in that.

You might want to have a look at the example_twog_analogimu.xml airframe file. But beware that the IMU neutral/sign/sense values are not correct. Maybe someone with a razor IMU can actually test this and set the correct ones?

Cheers, Felix

Hi Ana,

the integration of the Code was done by Felix and Christophe in December, as you know. I for myself didn't have the time yet to evaluate, that the code in the main branch is working, so I'm afraid, I can't help you with that, yet. But if you just want to try if your Hardware and you Code is working, or you want a logfile of a working instance of the Razor-IMU, you might want to have a look at this: http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/User:Christoph
There i described my setup and there is also a link to the github branch, I'm actualle using. Perhaps it helps.

Good luck

Christoph

Sorry I ask again, I am trying to incorporate a razor imu into a fixed wing aircraft.

 I don’t know if it should work with the current software in the main branch or if I should change anything. I know the autopilot gets the values from the adcs, because I can see them in the messages accel and gyro.

But I don’t have evidence that these values are used in order to let the autopilot know the attitude of the aircraft(the attitude message is fixed and the PFD doesn’t move)-I assume this is the difference between using an imu or the ir sensors-.

What files should I look for? Is there any branch where they work and I could have as reference?

Another question related to the imu is that the sensor outputs only change from one unit to another. I mean, with the accel values in m/s2, the z component is 10 (9 or 11), not intermediate values.Changing the “sens” parameter I get 100, but no more accurate. Is it the normal behavior?

Thanks
