iMSB release 3.6 introduces some nice features for experts who need to handle specific sensor and value processing. First, the generic sensor was extended with a custom value allowing to define specific units of your choice and number formatting. Decoding the raw telemetry data stream can be controlled by specifying a scale factor, pre and post offset. Second, if you need even greater flexibility we introduced scripting sensor values. A script value is nothing else than a sensor value whose processing is handled by a user definable Lua script attached to the value itself. It can be visualized, announced and logged by the standard iMSB functionalities. Not only can you handle standard scalar, time and coordinate based data, but we event introduced a string based value, allowing to show any text messages directly in a display field. The iMSB Lua library also adds a variety of functions that allow to programmatically controlling several aspects of the application. Please refer to the iMSB web site for further information and to access the programming reference guide. Note that you need to enable the advanced mode in order to use these new features.

These new features provide a great deal of new possibilities and much more flexibility in the way you want to process your data, as well as display them in the application.

Features:

• Introduced the iMSB Lua scripting libraries that allow attaching a Lua script to a sensor value for user defined value processing and application control. Please refer to the document on the iMSB web site for detailed information
• iMSB for HoTT:
  • We now support the faster 115 kbit/s Graupner protocol that is available on all the mc series transmitters via the internal Bluetooth expansion port. 
A specific BT Smart module that can be installed directly in an mc-16/20/26/28 transmitter has been developed and can be ordered via the iMSB web site
• iMSB for FrSky:
  • Added a custom sensor value to the generic sensor allowing to customize decoding of a given sensor value
  • Added a MavLink sensor that handles the ArduPilot passthrough protocol
  • An artificial horizon meter to display roll and pitch has been added. A sensor providing attitude data, such for eg. a Pixhawk is required for this
  • An extension board has been designed for the iMSB BT Smart module that allows installing it directly in the expansion bay, without the need to adapt the module's connectivity. Further information are available on the iMSB Web sit
    
• iMSB for M-Link:
  • Added a custom sensor value to the generic sensor allowing to customize decoding of a given sensor value
  • Removed support for the older WiFi module
Note that users still using this device should not upgrade to release 3.6 or switch to the newer BT Smart module.

Improvements:

• The vario player can now be parametrized to your personal liking by adjusting the center pitch, as well as the climb and decent frequency steps
• There is no more limitation on the value types that can be shown on the map view
• iMSB for HoTT:
  • Added a value for displaying lowest cell voltage of a lipo battery pack
• iMSB for FrSky:
  • Added a value for displaying lowest cell voltage of a lipo battery pack
  • Added a relative altitude (above ground) value to the GPS sensor

Bug Fixes:

• Small bug fixes and improvements
