Hi Christopher. Thanks for getting in touch. I've attached instructions
for reprogramming the AB2 to this email. Feel free to follow up if you
have questions. What type of changes are you looking to make?

There's instructions for the AirBeam but not the v2. I've made a couple of
attempts but never been able to get the Arduino or Teensy programmer to
recognise the device.

Looks like GitHub ate the attachment. Still in the planning stages but off the top of my head:

Hi Christopher. I've posted the instructions below. Feel free to follow
up if you have any questions. If you're successful with configuring over
serial and/or adding iOS support please share the results if possible as
we'd love to be able to share your solution with other AirCasters that have
similar needs.
1) Download the Arduino IDE 1.0.5-r3 with AT90USB1286 support via Dropbox,
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ayemmmameme9cf4/Arduino-1.0.5-r2-AT90USB1286.zip?dl=0
. Then extract, install, and open it.
2) Download the attached ZIP file and extract the firmware. Then use
Arduino IDE 1.0.5-r3 to open the firmware by navigating File > Open.
3) Remove the AB2 screws and open the enclosure.
4) Via the Arduino IDE navigate Tools > Board and select
[BootloaderCDC]AT90USB1286.
5) Note the COM ports listed in Arduino by navigating Tools > Serial Port.
6) Turn on the AB2 and connect it to the PC via the USB cable. Navigate
Tools > Serial Port and note the COM port associated with the AB2, this is
the AB2 "run mode" COM port.
7) With the board oriented so the small metal box is facing you, press and
hold down the left button, then press and hold down the right button. Hold
both buttons for 5 seconds, then release the right button, then release the
left button. Once you've done this there will be another COM port
associated with the AB2, this is the AB2 "reprogramming mode" COM port.
Select the "reprogramming mode" COM port in the Arduino IDE by navigating
Tools > Serial Port.
8) To upload the firmware navigate File > Upload or click the right facing
arrow.
9) Power off the AB2 for 5 seconds then power it back on. Your unit is now
reprogrammed with the updated firmware. You can now select the COM port
associated with the AB2 "run mode" to see detailed information on the
firmware you have uploaded.
All the best.

Still in the planning stages but off the top of my head:
- Not outputting ºF on the serial port.
- Making sure the Cell module is completely off as there isn't a 2G
network available.
- Our institutional WiFi is locked down with WPA2 Enterprise the
ESP8266-ESP-12S looks moderately compatible.
- Ability to configure a device over the wired serial port. The
Android app isn't a good solution for us.
- A long shot but some form is iOS support. I'm guessing bolting on a
Bluetooth LE module somehow.

Hi, |
|
FYI looks like the Dropbox link above is down, but this seems to work: https://github.com/lincomatic/arduino-1.0.5-r2-at90usb1286 Also note that I had to specifically install Time library v1.5: https://github.com/PaulStoffregen/Time/releases/tag/v1.5 |
|
Also, the firmware itself seems to be here: https://github.com/HabitatMap/AirCastingAndroidClient/tree/master/arduino/aircasting |
