Description

Reports various pieces of information about the revision status of the logger's main circuit card. Not usually of interest except for diagnostic purposes, or to determine whether hardware-dependent features may or may not be available in advance of trying to use them.

The parameters reported are:

  • pcb, is a letter such as 'C', 'F', etc., which represents the revision level of the main PCB (Printed Circuit Board) inside the logger.

  • cpu, is a number and letter, identifying the type and silicon revision of the CPU chip used on the main PCB.

  • bsl, is a letter giving the version of a firmware component used to reprogram the CPU chip in-situ.

Examples

>> hwrev
<< hwrev pcb = J, cpu = 5659A, bsl = A

Errors

None.
