Quick Commands

Quick commands are common actions that are performed during a standard operation and are alredy predefined. This way, there is no need of modifying the configuration or building a specific Automation.

Note

Some of the following quick commands can also be triggered automatically using Automations.

Panel Quick Commands

These actions can be accessed from the specific drop-down list located on the Veronte Panel.

• Calibrate IMU:

  Correct any biases on the IMU calibration, including mounting offsets.

  

  IMU Calibration

  It is also possible to input calibration values manually if known:

  

  IMU advanced Calibration

• Calibrate Magnetometer:

  Perform magnetometer calibration. Both Soft and Hard Iron calibrations are available. Soft Iron calibration will perform Hard Iron calibration also.

  Tip

  To achieve the best calibration, try to perform the calibration under operational conditions, including nominal currents and other magnetic disturbance sources that may be present during the operation

  

  Magnetometer Calibration

• Calibrate Static Pressure:

  Calibration for the static pressure calculation.

  

  Static Pressure Calibration

• Calibrate Dynamic pressure:

  Calibration for Airspeed calculation

  

  Dynamic Pressure Calibration

  Warning

  Dynamic pressure calibration is very sensitive to pressure disturbances. Make sure that the pressure intake is not disturbed while performing this calibration.

• Calibrate Atmosphere:

  Calibration for MSL calculation with barometric pressure. Both QNH and QFE options are available.

  

  Atmosphere Calibration

• Calibrate DEM:

  Calibrate any offset that the current terrain model may have for your current position.

  Warning

  Always perform this action on the ground, unless an accurate estimation of current AGL is available

  

  DEM Calibration

• Command Position:

  Allows to manually modify the Position Navigation state.

  Warning

  If there is any absolute positioning sensor active (i.e. GNSS), this command will not work since it will be automatically overrided.

  

  Command Position

• Command Yaw:

  Allows to manually modify the Yaw Navigation state.

  Warning

  If there is any Yaw sensor active (i.e. Magnetometer), this command will not work since it will be automatically overrided.

  

  Command Yaw

• Enter Wind Information:

  Enter initial values for wind state and start wind estimation algorithm.

  

  Wind Parameters

• Select PID:

  Select one of the existing PIDs on current configuration. After performing this action, ‘Selected PID’ variables will be updated according to the selected PID.

  

  Select PID

• Change Active Sensor:

  Allows to change one of the currently selected sensors.

  Warning

  Remeber that these changes are volatile. After the system is restarted, the selected sensor set will be the one defined on the configuration

  

  Calibrate IMU

• Trim Arcade:

  Calibrate current stick for arcade commands

Detour Quick Commands:

The following commands are only accessible if the current phase has an active Cruise Guidance. They allow to make temporary changes to the execution of the current mission.

• Fly to Hover:

  Create a volatile waypoint and change the current route. The created reference will dissappear whenever this command is overrided.

  

  Fly to Hover

• Fly to Loiter:

  Create a volatile loiter and change the current route. The created reference will dissappear whenever this command is overrided.

  

  Fly to Loiter

• Fly to Waypoint:

  Fly to an existing Waypoint. If the Waypint belongs to a mission, the UAV will continue that mission after thewaypoint is reached.
