Factory reset Seeker

[tom]

@utari_ais What file are you talking about? What is the file name and path?

[utari_ais]

@tom /etc/modalai/voxl-vision-px4.conf

I'm following this guide: https://docs.modalai.com/seeker-user-guide-network/

[tom]

@utari_ais The gcs IP setting was moved a while back into /etc/modalai/voxl-mavlink-server.conf, look for the primary_static_gcs_ip field.

voxl-vision-px4 was also renamed to voxl-vision-hub

[utari_ais]

@tom is there somewhere I can find the changes, the main documentation isn't updated so it is rather confusing

@utari_ais What page are you referencing?

@tom I have run into the same problem again. I am using this guide https://docs.modalai.com/qgc-wifi/

I am unable to connect the seeker to QGC. It worked last week, but now its not. I have correctly put the gcp IP setting in voxl-mavlink-server.conf and followed all the steps.

I am also unable to connect the spektrum transmitter to the drone, I always get a bind failed error whenever I try with QGC connected.

Any help is appreciated.

@utari_ais , are you able to establish the connection from GCS (instead of voxl2 trying to connect to GCS)? As described here : https://docs.modalai.com/qgc-wifi/#initiating-connection-to-voxl-from-qgroundcontrol

[utari_ais]

@Alex-Kushleyev Nope. I have followed all the steps but nothing happens. QGC still says "Disconnected".

[Alex Kushleyev]

@utari_ais can you please make sure that both voxl-px4 and voxl-mavlink-server are running?

voxl2:/$ voxl-inspect-services | grep mavlink
 voxl-mavlink-server      |  Enabled  |   Running   |     0.6%
voxl2:/$ voxl-inspect-services | grep voxl-px4
 voxl-px4                 | Enabled  |   Running   |    25.1%

[utari_ais]

@Alex-Kushleyev Here's what I see. I don't know why its not showing voxl-px4 as a service at all.

[Alex Kushleyev]

@utari_ais , you may need to run voxl-configure-mpa to set up the board parameters (including px4) according to your device / drone. did you do that after SDK install?

[utari_ais]

@utari_ais I remember doing this. Let me try again.

[utari_ais]

@Alex-Kushleyev is there anyway I can hard reset the drone? I think clearing it out and reinstalling might just do the trick

[tom]

@utari_ais Since you're using a voxl1 px4 is running on the flight core not on the voxl itself like voxl2. Therefore there is no voxl-px4 service on voxl1
