Fun - Exactly!! The marked up config file supplied as an example doesn't actually relate to some of the options in the updated Configuration Tool.


Yeah. Between what's in the (now 1 version behind) Dataport Specification, the (partly out of date) commented FLARMCFG.TXT file, some undocumented configuration commands I got last year and the (hopefully) upcoming Configuration Manual, I hope to get a better handle on this. Obviously not all of those things are going to be 100% consistent. The interplay between PowerFLARM firmware and the various device firmware updates also makes it pretty challenging without some inside knowledge - or known good configurations - to work with.

It's a pretty sophisticated piece of technology. I'm thankful it works as well as it does.
