adb is not working after tflite deployment.
-
@bgaudel After modifying the conf file, are you restarting voxl-vision-px4 with
systemctl restart voxl-vision-px4? -
@tom yes we did
systemctl restart voxl-vision-px4after modifying the config file.The setting of our QGC is:
.Still not able to connect with QGC. We also tried the same thing on the two different PC. Are there any settings or configurations that we especially need to take care of?
-
@bgaudel It seems as though you have all the configs setup correctly, can you post the status of the following services:
systemctl status voxl-px4 systemctl status voxl-vision-px4 systemctl status voxl-mavlink-server -
-
@bijay-gaudel How about:
journalctl -u voxl-px4 journalctl -u voxl-vision-px4 journalctl -u voxl-mavlink-server -
-
@bijay-gaudel Let's reset all of the services to their default / working state for RB5, can you run the following:
# configure services to defaults voxl-configure-mpa -f rb5-flight # modify /etc/modalai/voxl-vision-px4 with your correct qgc_ip vi /etc/modalai/voxl-vision-px4 # reboot rb5 adb rebootThe services seem to be having issue in this current state based off of the WARNING

@tom /etc/modalai/voxl-vision-px4 file seems empty.

This field is also configured * as one of the first questions in the configuration wizard. * If you wish to rely on QGC to initiate the connection to VOXL you can * leave this field as-is, blank, or “NULL”. Mavlink data is sent to this * IP on port 14550 by default, but this can be changed with the * qgc_udp_port_number config value. * * en_secondary_qgc: * Enable manually setting a second QGC ground station IP address. * * secondary_qgc_ip: * IP address for optional second QGC connection. Note that many more mavlink * connections can be made as long as they are initialized by the other device. * * qgc_udp_port_number: * Port to use for manual and automatic QGC connections, default 14550 * * udp_mtu: * Max size of UDP packet to send to QGC. Multiple mavlink messages will be * combined into one UDP packet to reduce network traffic. Set this to 0 to * send one UDP packet for every mavlink message. Default is 512 which * allows several mavlink messages per UDP packet. * * en_localhost_mavlink_udp: * If you are running MAVROS/MAVSDK onboard VOXL and wish to open access to * PX4 through a localhost UDP port simply ensure the follow feature is * enabled. This is set to true by default. This will allow one local process * to communicate with PX4 via port 14551 by default, NOT 14550 which is * reserved for connections outside the board. These separation prevents * conflicts between the two sockets. Both MAVROS and MAVSDK can be * configured to use this port. * * localhost_udp_port_number: * Port number for localhost UDP socket, default 14551 * * ############################################################################## * ## VIO * ############################################################################## * * en_vio: * Enable processing of VIO data from MPA to be sent to PX4 as mavlink * odometry messages.

Default is qvio * * en_send_vio_to_qgc: * Enable sending of VIO odometry messages to QGC for debug. * Note PX4 also sends odometry messages to QGC, so look for * the messages in mavlink-inspector marked as from component 197 * * en_reset_vio_if_initialized_inverted: * For VIO algorithms like qVIO that can initialize in any orientation * and output their estimate of the gravity vector, we suggest leaving * this enabled to allow vvpx4 to automatically send the reset signal * back to the VIO pipe if VIO was initialized upside-down or sufficiently * off-level. Helpful if the user powers on a drone while carrying it to * the flight area and VIO starts too early. * * vio_warmup_s: * Wait this for this amount of time of having good VIO data before * actually starting to send to PX4.

@bgaudel Apologies, the .conf was what I meant. Are you still having the same issue?
-
@tom yes, still not able to connect with
QGCThe output of
voxl-px4command is:
Does this look okay? What other settings and files should I pay attention for? -
@bgaudel
voxl-px4is already running in the background, there's no need to try to start any of the processes manually from the command line.Now that you've gone through
voxl-configure-mpa, can you try these commands again so we can get some info:journalctl -u voxl-px4 journalctl -u voxl-vision-px4 journalctl -u voxl-mavlink-server -
