To all Grape2 users:

The Grape2 developers would like to ask all Grape2 users to update their Grape2 software.

With this update, we’ll be able to apply future updates more easily by automatically restarting the Grape2 software when necessary, instead of asking users to manually restart.
The current update adds this feature, and also reduces log file sizes and fixes some magnetometer restart problems.

Please take the following steps.

1. Enter ctrl-x on the G2console.

2. Open a terminal window.
3. Type the ur command to pull updates from the Grape2 git repository.
4. Logout (do not restart the Pi).
5. Login again as user pi with password pi.

G2console should start again and continue collecting data.

More updates and features will be coming later.

Thanks and 73,
Bill Blackwell AB1XB
