Hello, I ran into the same issue as Adrien a while ago. In our club-gliders we can switch the PDA NMEA-Source between Flarm and Logger. I hoped xcsoar would work the way Adrien (and me) expected it to: When connecting to Device A fails, try connecting to Device B, even when on the same serial port (but with different baud-rate) But at the moment, as Max said, it doesn't work that way. When switching NMEA Sources, I have to go to the config screen to change baudrate manually each time.
To facilitate that some questions: 1) Would a feature request to get the "expected" behaviour, as stated above, make sense or is it technically to difficult? 2) Would a feature "auto detect baudrate" be possible/desirable ? (Would also be great for user-friendlyness, not speed of course) 3) Is it possible to make a shortcut for a quick change of the baudrate inflight using *.xci or similar files? If yes, could you point me to the right option or a howto page for that? I could create tickets for Q 1 and 2 if that makes sense to the coders as well. Otherwise would be a waste of time. Let me know please. =) Thanks for all the work you guys put in xcsoar, it never stops getting better... =) Henrik Am 03.06.2011 17:59, schrieb Max Kellermann: > On 2011/06/03 17:48, Adrien Ott<adrien....@gmail.com> wrote: >> I intend XCSoar to automatically change source upon my selection >> (either Flarm - GPS + "others" - ; or GPS antenna) on the switch. > It does not work this way.
