Parse Mock telem data #1

Description

Milestone 1

Description

  • Currently we only have boilerplate code for reading serial data from a Com port. We need the script to read from the right port (find the right port autonomously perhaps) and parse mock telemetry data properly. The script should log the data into a file rather than to standard output.
  • Consider refactoring the code to separate reading user input, parsing the input, and saving the input to separate functions / files

Acceptance Criteria

  1. Figure out how the heltec will be sending the telemetry data. (format, baudrate, any special protocol)
  2. write a simple arduino program to replicate the heltec's behavior on an arbitrary microcontroller (arduino is easiest)
  3. Modify the logging script to: accept the serial data at the correct baudrate (9600 was arbitrary), save the data to a file instead of printing it in standard output. start by echoing the data to a .txt but consider using pandas to log the data to a .csv

Dev Notes

(write down your thought process when developing this issue)

QA Notes

  • Test the script at least once by running the arduino code on the microcontroller, connecting the microcontroller to your PC, and running the python script on your PC.
