Added configuration menu for HUD functions: The V1 HUD has 4 functions (holes) which may be realized by one or two LEDs. The functions (like ppo2 monitoring or ascent speed) may be configurated by the diver using the HUD menu. The functions which may be selected depend on the HW configuration (e.g. the connected sensors) and the number of LEDs which are needed to realize the function. The previous HUD test implementation may still be activate usind the compile switch ENABLE_HUD_TESTING

# How to Make an Uploadable Firmware File for the OSTC4 #

Generated BIN files from the SMT32 Workbench need modification in order to be installed via the OSTC Companion onto the OSTC4. 

## Build Command Line Tools ##

These can be found in /ostc4pack (For Windows, CPP sources available)

## Run the Tools Manually ##

1. Copy generated BIN files (From the Release or debug directory) into /ostc4pack. Or: Modify .bat files to point to your Release or debug directory.
2. run step1_create_OSTC_RTE_upload.bat and/or step1_create_OSTC4_firmware_upload_bin.bat (Depending on which part you made changes)
3. run step2_create_OSTC4update_bin.bat to create final OSTC4update_xxxxxx.bin, with xxxxxx being the current date in YYMMDD format. This will add important checksums required for the OSTC4's bootloader to accept the file.

## Upload this file with the OSTC Companion software to the OSTC4 ##
