1.6.1 - 2024-06-11 ================== **Fixed:** - Fix Ethernet transmission issue introduced in v1.6.0. 1.6.0 - 2024-03-25 ================== **Fixed:** - Fix potential reboot for uplink frames with corrupt spacelink header length. - Fix delayed closing FEND output for 512 byte KISS/RS-422 frame transmissions. **Changed:** - Internal code changes to improve robustness and reduce binary image size. The changes do not affect any external APIs and do not require any action from the end user. **Added:** - Add ``rx.local.drop`` property. When set to ``true``, the SRS-4 will drop all incoming CSP and IP frames on the spacelink interface destined to the radio itself. With this setting enabled, the SRS-4 can only be configured via the CAN and RS422 interfaces and will only forward traffic between the spacelink and the CSP and IP interfaces. 1.5.0 - 2022-07-15 ================== **Changed:** - Use ``sys.csp.routes`` as the full CSP routing table instead of an amendment to the firmware defaults. The property default value has been changed from the empty string (no amendment) to ``0/0 CAN,10/5 SPACE``, which matches the previous firmware default routing table. This change removes the need to override the firmware ``10/5 SPACE`` route explicitly, when address 10 is not a spacelink address. Configurations that relied on the the implicit routing of address 10 to the spacelink interface must now explicitly add the route. **Added:** - Add ``tx.allow.always`` and ``tx.allow.time`` properties. See documentation for *Transmit Allow Timer* for a description of their use. The default settings maintain the behavior of previous firmware releases. 1.4.1 - 2021-08-02 ================== **Fixed:** - Fix unlikely deadlock and subsequent WDT restart when resetting GWDT through telecommand. 1.4.0 - 2021-04-16 ================== **Fixed:** - Frame sizes that resulted in an Reed-Solomon block length for the last block that differed by 2 or more bytes from the others were not interleaved correctly. This issue did not affect frames up to 446 RS bytes (interleaving depth 1 or 2) nor frame sizes that were a multiple of, or 1 byte less than a multiple of, the interleaving depth. All frame sizes that followed CCSDS 131.0-B-3 were handled correctly. - Fix occasional IP stack buffer corruption on high load that could lead to spurious reboots of the system. **Changed:** - Changed minimum values for ``tx.size`` and ``rx.size`` to 187 bytes. The size is chosen such that a minimum size frame with all link layer features will fit in a single RS block. **Added:** - Offload Reed-Solomon encoding to FPGA for much higher encoding performance. Reed-Solomon encoding can now be enabled for all transmit modulation types and symbol rates. 1.3.0 - 2021-03-24 ================== **Fixed:** - Fix spurious receive RS422/KISS CRC frame errors on high load. **Added:** - Add verification of alternate image before executing it. The primary and alternate images can be verified using the ``sl_srs4_bootloader_verify`` function via CSP and using the ``srs4 boot verify`` debug command. - Add ``srs4 gwdt`` client wrapper commands for reading and resetting the GWDT. - Add ``srs4 run`` client command for running debug shell commands remotely. - Add software client documentation in ``doc`` directory. - Add ``btp-client`` library to client tarball. 1.2.1 - 2021-03-02 ================== **Fixed:** - Fix occasional Ethernet PHY initialization errors. 1.2.0 - 2021-01-25 ================== **Fixed:** - Fix uplink and downlink when authentication is enabled but encryption is disabled (GMAC mode). **Changed:** - Additional improvements to receiver performance at low Eb/N0 and low symbol rates. - Limited AFC range to 15 kHz for improved locking reliability. **Added:** - Added ``rx.ebn0`` property to read back estimated receiver Eb/N0. - Added support for RS422 rates up to 12.5 Mbaud. Note that the achievable rates due to divider limitations is very limited above 5 Mbaud. 1.1.0 - 2020-09-08 ================== **Fixed:** - Fix occasional RX task reinitialization warnings when configuring multiple properties in quick succession. - Fix missing receiver reinitialization when modulation type changed. **Changed:** - Significantly improved receiver demodulator performance and lock time, especially for symbol rates below ~1 Mbaud. **Added:** - Added support for uplink/receiver convolutional coding, which can be enabled with the ``rx.cc`` property. Convolutional coding is enabled by default. - Added receive AFC that can be enabled with the ``rx.afc.enable`` property. The allowed compensation range can be adjusted with the ``rx.afc.range`` property. The AFC is enabled by default. - Added ``tx.pa.templimit`` property for PA temperature limit. The transmitter will stop transmitting if the ``tm.temp.pa`` sensor value exceeds this limit. Set the limit to 255 to disable the check and always transmit. - Added preliminary Ethernet/IP support. Enable using the ``sys.net.enable`` property. 1.0.0 - 2020-07-31 ================== **Added:** - First released version.
