Has anyone tried to connect the Yapa2 directly to the computer (without the use of Xbees) using the serial port of the computer? We are trying to connect the Yapa2 to the computer through the serial port that is marked on the attached picture.
<firmware name="fixedwing">
...
<subsystem name="telemetry" type="transparent">
<configure name="MODEM_BAUD" value="B57600"/>
<configure name="MODEM_PORT" value="UART1"/>
</subsystem>
</firmware>
We are not sure if we have configured the "transparent serial" protocol correctly. The problem we are having is that the ground stays black. However, we don't get any errors from the Data Link on the Paparazzi Center.
Best Regards,
