New features included in this release:
1. Added support for adjustable firing duration on the sustainer motor igniter for the Mx152 Pyro board. Sustainer motor igniter firing duration is now adjustable from 0.5 sec to 5.0 sec. Firmware version 5.6 or later is required in the Mx150 Transmitter to allow the firing time to be adjusted. Only the sustainer motor igniter pyro channel has an adjustable firing time. All other pyro channels use a fixed time of 0.5 sec. An adjustable sustainer motor igniter firing time provides flexibility for using different types of igniters.
2. Added support for a new Mx150 transmitter capability that outputs GPS NMEA sentences in real time. This allows real time GPS information to be streamed from the transmitter to other electronics onboard the rocket. For example, a GPS overlay board for displaying live GPS information on a real time video downlink signal. Firmware version 5.6 or later is required in the Mx150 Transmitter to support this new capability. It also requires a modified version of the Mx152 pyro board that has its AUX pyro channel replaced with a UART serial port.
3. No support yet for AUX or SSR (solid state relay) outputs on the Mx152 pyro board.
