GUI (Windows, OS X, Linux): SimpleBGC_GUI_2_50b3.zip (8Mb 14.04.2015)
User Manual (English): SimpleBGC_32bit_manual_2_50_eng.pdf (1Mb 3.04.2015)

  • User-written scripts (see Language Reference and user manual)
  • IMU temperature calibration and compensation.
  • New tool “Analyze” to make analysis of system response.
  • Notch filters have adjustable gain (0…100%)
  • “Motor outputs” settings group is changed to per-profile basis
  • GUI and firmware support Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) module communication (experimental)
  • New setting group “Outer PI controller” to adjust values for outer (cascade) PI controller (default value is 100 suit most setups)
  • New option “Swap frame and main sensors” to use frame IMU as main IMU and vice versa
  • New option “Gyro deadband” to cut off gyro noise around zero (that may be audible as ‘white noise’ in heavy setups)
  • New option “I2C high-speed”. Use it carefuly: high speed mode may cause I2C errors.

Bugfixes:

  • Problem with SSL connection during firmware upgrade is solved
  • Frame upside-down command loads default profile after reset
  • frame upside-down detection doesn’t work if “skip gyro calibration” is disabled.
  • acceleration limiter does not work properly with the big speed setting in the “Follow” mode: camera overshoots target position

ENCODER version:

  • New encoder type “Analog”. See updated manual http://www.basecamelectronics.com/files/SimpleBGC_32bit_Encoders.pdf
  • Different encoder types may be assigned to different axis
  • Option to adjust sound volume in the ‘beep by motors’ mode in the ‘Service’ tab
  • Bug fixed: frame upside-down switching is not correct
  • Several bugs fixed related to encoder calibration
