Added customizable data area for specific sensor data:
In future smart sensors will be connected via UART interface. These sensor provide additional data like diagnostics or id numbers which may vary from sensor to sensor. That's why a byte array has been added which stores up to 32 bytes. The layout of this array may be specific to sensor needs. As first example temperature and id number of the DiveO2 sensor are provided.

# 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"
