Bugfix Fontpack update for large blocks: The update of a font pack with a size > 768000 byte was interrupted and a manuel switch to bootloader had to be performed to get the font pack flashed. Rootcause was a missing address adjustment during the block read back function which caused a false error detection. Blocks > 768000 are read in two step while only one buffer is used for comparation. To fill the correct data into this buffer a dummy read of the flash data was added to get the data pointers to the correct offset. Another bug was regardings the read back itself where only the first byte was checked. After array indexing the complete buffer is noch verified.

# Using OpenSTM32 IDE to Compile OSTC4 Firmware #

The free and Open [STM32 IDE](http://www.openstm32.org/System%2BWorkbench%2Bfor%2BSTM32) is an integrated development environment based on _Eclipse_ that will allows you to compile and link code for the OSTC4 dive computer.
You will then be able to generate `.bin` firmware files to upload to your computer using your favourite tools, eg. [OSTC Companion](https://ostc-planner.net/companion). 

1. Register on http://www.openstm32.org/ : that will allows you to download the IDE.
2. Once registered and logged in, you can go to _Documentation_ and _Installation Manual_. Follow the instructions to install the IDE (available for Windows 7, MacOS and Linux).
3. Use the ready made project ... in ... 

Or you can create a brand new project by following the _How To_'s:

- [HowTo compile CPU1-Discovery main firmware](Detailed CPU1-Discovery Project.md)
- [HowTo compile CPU1-Discovery protected area firmware](Detailed CPU1-Upper Project.md)
- [HowTo compile CPU2-RTE real-time firmware](Detailed CPU2-RTE Project.md)
- [HowTo generate uploadable firmware file](Make Firmware File.md)
