Configuration Parameters Reference¶

Complete reference of all OnSpeed configuration parameters. Configuration is stored as XML (config.cfg). The Default column shows the values set by FOSConfig::LoadDefaultConfiguration() in Config.cpp — what a fresh install or "Load Defaults" button press produces.

General Settings¶

XML Tag	Type	Default	Description

`PRESSURE_SMOOTHING`	int	15	EMA filter window for pressure sensors (samples)
`DATASOURCE`	string	`SENSORS`	Data source: `SENSORS`, `TESTPOT`, `RANGESWEEP`, `REPLAYLOGFILE`
`REPLAYLOGFILENAME`	string	(empty)	Log file to replay when DATASOURCE=REPLAYLOGFILE
`SDLOGGING`	bool	false	Enable SD card data logging
`CALWIZ_SOURCE`	string	`ONSPEED`	Calibration wizard IAS source: `ONSPEED` or `EFIS`
