A Problem with MAVProxy

Hello,

I’m making a ROV with pixhawk 2.4.8 and the companion computer “Jetson Nano 4GB”. I was connecting to my pixhawk via USB cable which is plugged into Jetson. I was using MAVProxy and QGC for ground computer to controller connection. It was going well until something I can’t understand happened.

Here’s my codeline for opening up UDP connection:
mavproxy.py --master=udp:169.254.242.51:14550 --out=/dev/ttyACM0,921600

When I try to connect it it says “Link 1 OK” but after that it doesn’t show any mission parameters (FGear_in, FGear_out) and I can see that QGC still says “Disconnected”. What should I do?

Thanks in advance.

P.S. : I’m establishing communication between ground computer and companion via PLC(Power Line Communication)

Hi @Ege -
Your IP address in that command looks a bit suspect. Typically the default IP address of the companion computer is 192.168.2.2 .
The default mavlink stream from BlueOS is then directed at 192.68.2.1 - so if your computer is configured with that IP on the adapter connected to your Jetson, you should automatically get a connection in QGC.

Hello @tony-white,

I figured out my problem. It was about voltage of ground PLC module. My cable wasn’t enough for it’s minimum voltage rate.

Thanks for your reply.

Merhaba Ege, bizde pixhawk ve jetson nano ile iletişim sorunu yaşıyoruz. Bize tecrübelerini anlatır mısın?
