Which sidepanel GPS ?

[kodsurf]

In a current develop branch gps module is initialized on LPC_UART0. However comment on the code says that it is sidepanel C (X-)

This looks incorrect.

My own docu "originaly" stated that LPC_UART0 is C/X-

Yesterday with flatbed setup it turned out that LPC_UART3 is C/X-

Please clarify to which sidepanel GPS should be connected by design, and check the code for gps init data.

Ok, based on your adcs conversation, gps data to be supplied from ADCS. Meaning that climb_gps.c module will likely be deprecated.

If is ok - I will for now change gps UART to LPC_UART3 with direct commit to dev ?

My GPS code was based on (my!) assumption that we will need/have any GPS for time sync. The init structure allows for 2 additional IO pins which the GPS type I used provides. Code does not make use of it until now (see #15).

About 'the real thing' pls. refer to available CLIMB hardware design and Doku. The last known SatBusDefinition_v01_Table.pdf I have (4.8.2020!) does show UART usage: A-C: Stacie-A, Stacie-C B: S-Stacie D: thruster. What I remember is, that it was decided definitively to use a soft Uart (2 GPIOs) for Debug interface in future HW revisions - #12 (but I don't know where this is documented).

@WolfgangTreb , @AndyFHWN : Pls. clarify status of current design and hardware documentation!
