    • RE: M0138 FPV ESC capabilities

      @Alex-Kushleyev Hi Alex, would these commands work with the M0134 Variant as well?

    • RE: Installing VOXL IO on Sentinel Drone – QUP2 and QUP7 Conflicts

      @Eric-Katzfey when using the voxl-send-esc-pwm-cmd do you know how I would be able to trigger the VREF Pin on the ESC 4-in-1?

      I have tried running:

      sudo voxl-send-esc-pwm-cmd -p 12 -w 2201
      sudo voxl-send-esc-pwm-cmd -p 11 -w 2000

      and when I measure the voltage from that wire I get ~0.01V which I presume to be noise.

      Is there something that I am missing?

      I am looking to produce a 5V Rail.

    • voxl-qvio-server architecture error on VOXL2 SDK Platform

      I am trying to run voxl-vision-hub and that requires voxl-qvio-server to be running. However, when I start it, it says one of its internal libraries (libvoxl_common_config.so) cannot be run since it is a 64-bit library. Then, I realized that the voxl-qvio-server package I have is 32-bit while all the other packages are 64-bit. I tried to reinstall voxl-qvio-server from the newest VOXL2 SDK Platform release, but that one is still 32-bit even though the DEB file is labeled arm64. Does anyone know how to solve this issue?

    • RE: voxl-io-server won't run

      Did you try running voxl-configure-rangefinders?

      Yes I have, and these are the outputs:

      voxl2:/$ voxl-configure-rangefinders
      missing required argument

      Start wizard with prompts:
      voxl-configure-rangefinders

      Shortcut configuration arguments for scripted setup.
      factory_enable will reset the config file to factory defaults
      before enabling the service.

      voxl-configure-rangefinders disable
      voxl-configure-rangefinders 1_on_m0141
      voxl-configure-rangefinders 1_downward_on_m0141
      voxl-configure-rangefinders 4_on_m0141
      voxl-configure-rangefinders 1_downward_on_m0173
      voxl-configure-rangefinders enable

      1_downward_on_m0141 is for a downward sensor, this enables mavlink
      broadcast to the autopilot as a landing sensor

      show this help message:
      voxl-configure-rangefinders help

      is there a certain option I should select?

    • voxl-io-server won't run

      Hello Modal AI team,

      I am trying to enable and run voxl-io-server. I was successfully able to enable it but when starting the system, it would not run. I ran into this error when I asked for its status

    • RE: Installing VOXL IO on Sentinel Drone – QUP2 and QUP7 Conflicts

      @Eric-Katzfey How can I control those PWM signals? Since at the moment I am not reading anything from any of the pins.

    • RE: Installing VOXL IO on Sentinel Drone – QUP2 and QUP7 Conflicts

      @Eric-Katzfey Correct me if I am wrong, but doesn't the ESC only have enough motor outputs for each of the propellers? So to add another PWM signal I need to either use a GPIO pin or the expansion voxl2 IO board

    • RE: Installing VOXL IO on Sentinel Drone – QUP2 and QUP7 Conflicts

      @Eric-Katzfey I’m trying to control the gripper using a Python script running in a Docker container on Linux. My plan is to use pymavlink to listen for remote controller commands, like a specific channel input, and then trigger the gripper based on that input. So I think it's not integrated directly as a PX4 driver; it’s more of a companion application running alongside PX4 that reacts to MAVLink messages in real time.
