Code refactoring

Hello,
I’m recoding the firmware to save memory.
I need to understand the aim of debug mode and the terminal mode (serial command ###)

When you enter the command ###, what do you expect the SCK to do ?
It seems it stops sending data to the server.

When debugON is true, what is it expected ?

OK thanks !
It’s a little bit confusing because when debug is ON you should except to have more debug traces.
There’s another variable : terminal_mode.

So, If well understood : ### command stops debug traces and some more if checking debugOn.
And it seems sensor mode is also set to OFFLINE : it stops to read sensors too.

if the SCK is sleeping, it should respond only to the 2 following commands :

SCK commands mode

$$$ WiFly commands mode

Nothng else ?

Hi,

You can check the SCK (SmartCitizenKit) commands here:

github.com

fablabbcn/smartcitizen-kit/blob/master/sck-commands.md

## SCK Serial Commands

The Smart Citizen Kit can be managed over a basic serial protocol. You just need the **Arduino IDE Serial Monitor** or any other **Serial Utility** like **Screen** in order to use it.

#### How to use it.

* Connect to your kit using any serial utility, any baud-rate should work but `115200` is recommendable.
* Send the starting commands.
* Notice all the commands except the starting commands require a carriage return at the end: `CR` or `\r`  .
* Call any command you want, change `XXX` with the corresponding value.

### Basic SCK setup commands

This commands are commands to talk directly to the Wi-Fi module (RN-XV WiFly) own interface.

* `$$$`							Wake up the module and enter WiFly commands mode
* `set wlan ssid XXX\r`        Add a new SSID to memory
* `set wlan phrase XXX\r`      Add a new phrase to memory
* `set wlan key XXX\r`         Add a new key to memory
* `set wlan auth XXX\r`        Add an authentication method into memory

That particular command:

Wake up the module and enter SCK commands mode

Here is the line that does that:

github.com

fablabbcn/smartcitizen-kit/blob/master/sck_beta_v0_9/SCKAmbient.cpp

/*

  SCKAmbient.cpp
  Supports the sensor reading and calibration functions.

  - Sensors supported (sensors use on board custom peripherials):

    - TEMP / HUM (DHT22 and HPP828E031)
    - NOISE
    - LIGHT (LDR and BH1730FVC)
    - CO (MICS5525 and MICS4514)
    - NO2 (MiCS2710 and MICS4514)
    - ADXL345 (Only on some models)

*/


#include "Constants.h"
#include "SCKAmbient.h"
#include "SCKBase.h"

When debugOn is true, the kit should minimize output to the serial port so you can send commands without being interrupted.

Hope this helps!
