AVR Throttle Controller Command/Protocol Design ===============================================

The Pilot as the master will send COMMAND packets to the slave throttle controller. The throttle controller will respond to each command packet with an ACK/NAK or STATUS (if requested) packet. All values are trasmitted as ASCII characters representing byte values in hexadecimal. Packets are terminated with a carriage return. The packet formats are as follows:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

COMMAND packet

----------------------------------------------------------------------

COM - (4 bit) Command code value. See COMMAND COM/DATA section below. LEN - (4 bit) Length of frame, including COM, LEN, SEQ, DATA, and CSUM.

Note: This value reflects the "byte" packet length--not the ASCII string length. For example, a GOTO command will be 4 bytes in "byte" packet length , even though the ASCII string (excluding CR) is 8 characters.

SEQ - (1 byte) Sequence number. See Protocol Operation section below. DATA - (0-4 bytes) Command/response data in big-endian format. CSUM - (1 bytes) Checksum. See CSUM description below.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

ACK/NAK packet

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The ACK/NAK packet is the same format as the COMMAND packet with a COM code corresponding to an ACK or NAK and no DATA bytes. Note that the throttle controller will not generate it's own SEQ numbers, but will instead echo back the SEQ value of the COMMAND packet. See Protocol Operation below.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

STATUS packet

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The STATUS response packet is the same format as the COMMAND packet with a COM code of STATUS, and the corresponding DATA bytes. Note that the SEQ value provided by the throttle controller will be an echo of the value passed in the COMMAND request from the Pilot. The STATUS request packet from the Pilot will have a zero length DATA field.

STATUS Response Fields: see avr_controller.h

Protocol Operation: As noted above, the Pilot will send packets with unique SEQ values (presumably increasing until rollover) to the throttle controller. All responses from the throttle controller will echo back the SEQ value from the corresponding Pilot COMMAND packet. The throttle will keep track of the the last COMMAND/response exchange. If the Pilot times out waiting for a response from the throttle, the retry packets should re-use the original SEQ value for the COMMAND packet. This way, if the timeout was due to a lost ACK/NAK, the controller will see a duplicate request multiple times. If the re-tried command is a request for STATUS that was previously sent by the throttle, the latest status information is always returned for the retry (i.e. no cached status).

----------------------------------------------------------------------

COMMAND COM/DATA

----------------------------------------------------------------------

See <art/art_command_protocol.h>. The main commands are:

ACK (0) Acknowledges COMMAND from Pilot. NAK (1) Negative acknowledge of COMMAND from Pilot. STATUS (2) STATUS command from Pilot or its response from the controller. DATA bytes as in "avr_controller.h". A STATUS request command from the PILOT will have a zero-length DATA field. GOTO (3) Sets throttle position. DATA byte: target postion.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

CSUM

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The "Simple Wikipedia" checksum algorithm is computed as follows: See

Step 1: Adding all bytes together. Step 2: Drop the Carry Nibble. Step 3: Get the two's complement. This is the checksum byte. To Test the Checksum byte simply add it to the original group of bytes. Drop the carry nibble again giving 00h. Since it is 00h this means the checksum means the bytes were probably not changed.

Note: The CSUM encompasses the COM, LEN, SEQ, and DATA fields.
