kGetFIRFiltersResp (frame ID 14

d

)

This is the response to kGetFIRFilters and it has the same payload definition as

kSetFIRFilters.

Power Down/Up

For certain applications it is desirable to conserve battery power. To maintain accurate

heading readings in AHRS Mode generally requires continual sensor updates to the

Kalman algorithm. However, this is not the case in Compass Mode wherein readings

may be taken only when heading information is desired. Consequently, when in

Compass Mode the TRAX may be powered down when heading data is not required.

kPowerDown (frame ID 15

d

)

This frame is used to power-down the module. The frame has no payload. The

command will power down all peripherals including the sensors, microprocessor, and

RS-232 driver. However, the driver chip has a feature to keep the Rx line enabled.

The TRAX will power up when it receives any signal on the native UART Rx line.

kPowerDownDone (frame ID 28

d

)

This frame confirms the TRAX received a command to power down. The frame has

no payload.

kPowerUpDone (frame ID 23

d

)

This frame confirms the TRAX received a command to power up. (The TRAX will

power up when it receives any signal on the native UART Rx line.) The frame has no

payload.
