Project Status

Current Project Status (1 June 2017)

Difficulties getting a working Swift 3.1 build on Raspbian means I've decided to switch to using Ubuntu MATE as the base of the Raspberry Pi.
- No source changes required, but invalidates some of the Wiki documentation until ARM compilation "just works."
- On the bright side, I have a working macOS cross-compiler!
Lots of experimentation with the electronics side of the project.
I've decided for sure that I'm going to move RailCom cutout generation out of the Command Station, and have been prototyping accordingly.
I have a working prototype DCC Booster.
Source code for the AVR part is in AVR/PowerStation.

DCC "Driver" has the core functionality of being able to transmit any bitstream, queue multiple bitstreams, and cleanly transition between them.
- This code is somewhat OOP "mega-class" in design as a result of being written on-the-go. It will be refactored into a much more Protocol-Oriented design.
- Currently this goes to extra lengths to handle the RailCom cutout period itself. I'm increasingly expecting to move away from this approach, which will simplify the design a lot, in concert with the above refactor.
Currently working on different approaches for the AVR-based Booster and RailCom detector boards.
Procrastinating on finishing the wiki pages below for DMA.
