FUNcube Data Warehouse (Fitter Messages)

by on January 29, 2014

Hi,

We have made a few changes to the way they are handled / displayed:

  • Only the last 7 days of fitter messages are displayed (list is truncated at midnight UTC, each day)
  • To help the command stations, the ‘Slot’ number shown.
  • Only the last received DATE is shown

A text file which contains ALL the Fitter Messages that have been captured by groundstations  can be downloaded using the link on the Fitter Messages page on the FUNcube Warehouse at:

http://warehouse.funcube.org.uk//fitter.html

The process to generate this file is executed once per day.

    Is there a story behind Fitter Message 9?

    I’ve been enjoying the data, especially the changes in the wobble.

      Yes – apologies if we haven’t explained this previously but we can set Fitter Message 9 to downlink various status flags in addition to the normal telemetry that we transmit.
      This debug data appears at the bottom left hand corner of the Dashboard.
      If we wish we can use Fitter Message 9 for “normal” messages by ground command

      cheers
