Howdy All -
Will v2 software run on a v1 flukso? If not, is backporting planned to give any fancy new features to suckers who only have a v1 (like me?)
v2 software will not run on a v1 flukso. The v2 is using an SPI bus instead of a UART for communication with the sensor board. Besides the move from UART to SPI for sensor board communication, the v2 has double the flash (4MB vs. 8MB) on the router board compared to the v1 and four times on the sensor board (ATmega48 vs. ATmega168). We are slowly maxing out on the 4kB flash on the ATmega48. The v1 AVR code size in trunk now compiles to 3880 bytes. There are simply not enough free flash cells on the v1 left to write any backported code to.
Howdy!
