iAcommsDriver

iAcommsDriver provides our standard interface between MOOS and the WHOI uModem.  It implements the GOBY uModem driver class and allows other MOOS applications to make use of the modem through several MOOS variables.  

Simplest Usage

Transmitting

Transmitting is very easy - simply post a string to the variable ACOMMS_TRANSMIT_DATA and the modem will immediately send that data if it is not currently receiving or transmitting data.  The variable ACOMMS_DRIVER_STATUS indicates whether the modem is "ready", "transmitting", or "receiving".  The transmission rate and destination can be set by posting the the variables ACOMMS_TRANSMIT_RATE and ACOMMS_TRANSMIT_DEST.
