Hi everybody,
there is one thing I would really like to see in future versions of
TeleMetrum or TeleMega.
It is the possibility to control a servo. Very few altimeters can do
that, for example the Altimax.

It is very useful for controlling servo releases for serial dual deploy
like spacetecs SRM2. They are pretty common in Europe.
In principle you need only a analog/digital output which can be freely
controlled.
Sure it is possible to use another microcontroller to convert the
ignitor output into a servo signal, but that introduces one additional
part to rocket design.
Maybe that is even possible with the actual TeleMetrum design, just with
a software change?
Is there some output accessible? As far as I understand the companion
port it is only a SPI interface.
Port 3 and 4 on the debug port seem for me to be regularly unused
digital IO ports.
Can they be used?
Best
Thomas
