Improve compass calibration dialog:
The previous calibration dialog showed some "magic" numbers and a 60 second count down. The new version is trying to guide the user through the calibration process: first rotate pitch, then roll and at last yaw angle. A step to the next angle is taken when enough data per angle is collected (change from red to green). To enable the yaw visualization a simple calibration is done while rotating the axis.
The function behind the calibration was not modified => the suggested process can be ignored and the same handling as the with old dialog may be applied. With the new process the dialog may be left early. Anyhow it will still be left after 60 seconds and the fine calibration is performed in the same way as before.

# 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 ## See http://forum.heinrichsweikamp.com/read.php?7,19186 on how to get and use the "OSTC companion"
