Potential Bugfix Selection MenuEdit lifecycle: The "id" as well as the "evid" were used in two workflows. The setup of the menu structure and later in the handling of e.g. actual cursor position. In case of sructure updates while the menu was opened this lead to misbehavior in the menu handling. To avoid this in future the two usecased of the variables have been separated. The creation of the menus is still handles by "id" and "evid". The handling of the actual menu behavior is controlled by "actualId" and"actualevid"

# 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.
