    Hello, I followed the tutorial(https://docs.modalai.com/voxl2-PX4-hitl/) to set up the simulation environment and disabled px4 and qvio.:

    Then I ran

    voxl-px4-hitl
    

    and used the command

    qshell dsp_hitl status
    

    to query the status of the HITL driver:

    Why is there no data?

    I am connecting to VOXL2 via type-c to adb. Could this be related to the issue? (I did not connect the JST connector to the VOXL2 J18 port)

    If the pins of VOXL2 are not connected, please tell me where the J18 port of VOXL2 (VOXL2 Starlight) is located. Thank you very much for your help!

      @cy208183395 The HITL commands come over the serial link. Since you have not attached a serial link you are not getting any commands.

        @Eric-Katzfey
        So, am I because I didn't connect the JST connector to the VOXL2 J18 port.
        The original type-c connection is not able to read data?

          @cy208183395 You have to follow all steps. The serial cable must be used.
