How to use the example

[ghost]

I would like to re-use your PacketLib for my satellite telemetry simulator project that requires use of CCSDS space data packet format. I did a git clone of your project and install ("make") on my macbook pro. It returns no error but the binaries are not copied to /usr/local/lib etc.

My intent is to:

1. Create sample telemetry test data in CCSDS space data packet format with test data telemetry payload
2. Use PacketLib to send/receive

Thanks in advance.

1. git clone your project
2. compile ("make")

Questions

• I also couldn't find instructions how to run the examples with details. Any step-by-step instructions to run your /examples and /examples2?
• Where can i find any sample telemetry data files or payload for testing PacketLib?
