Hi guys, Any update on when we can get the ROV data out of qgc for 3rd party softwares? I know we’ve discussed this topic in length. Just wondering if there is any progress. Depth, heading, etc out to UDP port will do. No need for anything fancy. Cheers, E ---

You can access it [via mavlink](https://discuss.bluerobotics.com/search?q=mavlink), but we are planning to have something with [REST API](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_state_transfer) soon. ---

yeah I am already doing this with mavlink but its a bit cumbersome especially for some of my clients who are not tech savvy. ---

I regularly have clients asking for a heading, depth, pitch and roll output to integrate into the survey software. Is this feature still in development? ---

Hi, Our latest version has mavlink2rest, you can read more about it here: [http://www.ardusub.com/reference/companion/mavlink-rest.html](http://www.ardusub.com/reference/companion/mavlink-rest.html) ---

My Oceanvault - Data Server software can retrieve the mavlink2rest information and output a string to com port or UDP port for 3rd party software to read. > **[Oceanvault Data Server – Delta ROV Inc](http://www.deltarov.com/new/product/oceanvault-data-log/)** ---

Thanks Etienne. That’s just what I’m looking for. ---

Hi, Is it possible to output the AHRS data from Cockpit into Tritech’s Genesis software ? ---

Hi @Seair, Autopilot AHRS data is available over MAVLink, so you’d need to convert that to [messages that Genesis understands](https://www.tritech.co.uk/files/Manuals/Software-Manuals/0716-SOM-00002-02-Genesis-Interface-Strings-and-Files.pdf#page=6). If you want to do that through Cockpit then the recently introduced HTTP or Javascript Actions\[1\] are likely your best bet, but from a quick look through the Genesis manual, it seems to [only accept input via COM Ports](https://www.tritech.co.uk/files/Manuals/Software-Manuals/0716-SOM-00001-06-Genesis-Software-Manual.pdf#page=106), so you might need some additional software to act as a COM port emulator, or contact Tritech and ask whether there’s some way to talk to Genesis via HTTP requests instead of serial. * * * 1. We’re working to document and provide examples for both of these, but the possibilities are very broad, so it may take some time to develop a thorough coverage of the most useful functionalities.
