Hi guys,

would be nice if you could update the http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/Sensors/Current wiki page....

Cheers, Felix

Hi,

I am using a current and voltage sensor successful. First put the
following lines in firmware section:

<firmware name="fixedwing">
   .
   <define name="USE_ADC"/>
   <define name="USE_ADC_3"/>    <!-- accu voltage--> <!-- *******-->
   <define name="USE_ADC_4"/>    <!-- motor current-->
   <define name="ADC_CHANNEL_VSUPPLY"  value="ADC_3"/> <!-- *******-->

Then in Battery section:
 <section name="BAT">
   <define name="ADC_CHANNEL_CURRENT" value="ADC_4"/>
   <define name="MilliAmpereOfAdc(adc)" value="(100*adc)"/>
   <define name="VOLTAGE_ADC_A" value="0.05"/> <!-- *******-->
   <define name="VOLTAGE_ADC_B" value="1"/> <!-- *******-->
   <define name="VoltageOfAdc(adc)" value ="(VOLTAGE_ADC_A * adc +
VOLTAGE_ADC_B)"/> <!-- *******-->


Dont load the adc_generic module anymore.
If you don't use the voltage measurement, skip the lines marked with <!--
*******-->
