NAME

       altosui - Rocket flight monitor

SYNOPSIS

       altosui

DESCRIPTION

       altosui  connects  to a TeleDongle or TeleMetrum device through a USB serial device.  It provides a menu-
       oriented user interface to monitor, record and review rocket flight data.

USAGE

       When connected to a TeleDongle device, altosui turns on the radio  receiver  and  listens  for  telemetry
       packets.  It  displays  the  received  telemetry data, and reports flight status via voice synthesis. All
       received telemetry information is recorded to a file.

       When connected to a TeleMetrum device, altosui can be used to configure the TeleMetrum, and to  downloads
       the eeprom data and store it in a file.

       A number of other menu options exist, including the ability to export flight data in different formats.

FILES

       All  data  log files are recorded into a user-specified directory (default ~/TeleMetrum). Files are named
       using the current date, the serial number of the reporting device, the flight number recorded in the data
       and either '.telem' for telemetry data or '.eeprom' for eeprom data.
