Colors \fIred\fR, \fIgreen\fR, \fIblue\fR can be hexadecimal or decimal value in range of [0-255] hex value have to begin with 0x. .fi .TP \fB\-G\fR, \fB\-\-getSerial=\fIserialPort\fR get serial number on dev \fIserialPort\fR, and print it to standard output. .TP .nf \fB\-S\fR, \fB\-\-setSerial\fR=\fIserialNumber\fR,\fIserialPort\fR Set \fIserialNumber\fR on dev \fIserialPort\fR. 32 bits value can be writen in hexadecimal (0x#) or decimal (#). .fi .TP \fB\-i\fR, \fB\-\-verify\fR=\fIgloFile\fR Verify that syntax glo file is valid .TP \fB\-u\fR, \fB\-\-uploadGlo\fR=\fIgloFile\fR,\fIserialPort\fR Verify that syntax glo file is valid and if this is the case upload it on dev \fIserialPort\fR .TP \fB\-k\fR \fB\-\-symlink=\fIserialPort\fR .nf return the serial name used as symlink of kernel name by udev (work with linux only). see the improved management driver section below. But you can also use this command to retrieve an more readable id than serial number. .fi .TP Improved management driver (linux only) note: you may need to update to last bootloader (aeroup was tested with Club_Ball_Poi_V2.3.hex). you 'll find it on the Aerotech ltd web page. To use the system management driver, you first need to set the apropriate serial number in your props with the --setSerial option. (See the address table belowx). And put the file aeroup.rule to your udev rules directory if it wasn't done during installation. When you plug your props you should now have a corresponding symlink to your /dev directory. .nf ================================================ Props | Range adress | id char | Symlinks ================================================ Ball | 0.0.98.0/24 | b | /dev/Ball# Staff | 0.0.115.0/24 | s | /dev/Staff# Club | 0.0.99.0/24 | c | /dev/Club# Poi | 0:0:112:0/24 | p | /Poi/Poi# ================================================ .fi .TP .nf \fB\-P\fR, \fB\-\-thread\fR Multithread mode, not implemented yet... .TP .nf \fB\-U\fR, \fB\-\-uploadGloc\fR=\fIglocFile\fR,\fIserialPort\fR not implemented yet... .TP .nf \fB\-v\fR Verbose mode .TP .nf \fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR Print help .TP .nf \fB\-\-version\fR Print version .PP The last bootloader V2.3 from Aerotech needs to be installed first to use Serial number features. .br Each sub options have to be separate with a comma without blank. .SH EXAMPLES aeroup -t /dev/ttyACM0 .br aeroup -o /dev/ttyACM0 -o /dev/ttyACM1 -t /dev/ttyACM3 .br aeroup -c 255,69,255,/dev/ttyACM0 27,3,7,/dev/ttyACM1 .br aeroup -S 0x0b01/dev/ttyACM0 .br aeroup -G /dev/ttyACM0 .br .SH SEE ALSO AeroUp project page : https://github.com/LaurentBa/AeroUp .br AeroWrite project page : https://github.com/LaurentBa/AeroWrite \#.SH BUGS \#No known bugs. .SH AUTHOR Written by Laurent Barattero (laurent@larueluberlu.net.in) .SH COPYRIGHT Copyright © 2013 BARATTERO Laurent License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later . .br This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it.
