There are different priorities, such that for example one module can set a color with low priority, and another module can blink N times with high priority, and the LED's automatically return to the lower priority state after the blinking.

This is used for example in the startup script to set airframe-specific parameters. Parameters are automatically saved when changed, eg. with `param set`. They are typically stored to FRAM or to the SD card. `param select` can be used to change the storage location for subsequent saves (this will need to be (re-)configured on every boot). If the FLASH-based backend is enabled (which is done at compile time, e.g. for the Intel Aero or Omnibus), `param select` has no effect and the default is always the FLASH backend. However `param save/load ` can still be used to write to/read from files. Each parameter has a 'used' flag, which is set when it's read during boot. It is used to only show relevant parameters to a ground control station. ### Приклади Change the airframe and make sure the airframe's default parameters are loaded: ``` param set SYS_AUTOSTART 4001 param set SYS_AUTOCONFIG 1 reboot ``` ### Usage {#param_usage} ``` param [arguments...] Commands: load Load params from a file (overwrite all) [] File name (use default if not given) import Import params from a file [] File name (use default if not given) save Save params to a file [] File name (use default if not given) select Select default file [] File name select-backup Select default file [] File name show Show parameter values [-a] Show all parameters (not just used) [-c] Show only changed params (unused too) [-q] quiet mode, print only param value (name needs to be exact) [] Filter by param name (wildcard at end allowed, eg. sys_*) show-for-airframe Show changed params for airframe config status Print status of parameter system set Set parameter to a value Parameter name and value to set [fail] If provided, let the command fail if param is not found set-default Set parameter default to a value [-s] If provided, silent errors if parameter doesn't exists Parameter name and value to set [fail] If provided, let the command fail if param is not found compare Compare a param with a value.
