Jason,

Did you get a chance to post that GCS exe file? If so where can I find it?

Developer Comment by jasonshort on June 24, 2010 at 5:19pm

GroundStation2.exe

Here is the latest version. I've hacked around a lot with it. I won't be able to help you much more than suggest you except:
Allow the enclosing folder to run this app.

Download and setup serproxy.
good luck.
Jason

Hi, I meant to say
Is it possible to play with the source (Fla) file? Ill have a look at slotting in a comms driver. What version Flash did you code with?
BTW - Thanks...very good work!

Developer Comment by jasonshort on June 25, 2010 at 10:02am

Here is the code. Sorry It's a mess. I redo parts of it every time I use it or when I'm debugging parts of Ardupilot.GroundStation_fla.zip

Thanks Jason. I'll get onto this as soon as I can and will let you know what I come up with. Please bear with me as I am suffering from the tinkerers curse at the moment....too many projects,too little time and a family as well!!

@Jason
I am trying to use your executable to have an easy way to read outputs from APM. Are there any specific settings for the serproxy.cfg file, i.e. net_port value, etc.? Thanks in advance!

Hi Tim
Set the values according to your PC. Start serproxy. Start Jasons GCS. And now comes the trick: press the spacebar to start communication.

See here as well.

Best Christof

Christof,
Thank you for the info regarding the space bar. That did get the GCS activated. I know that the GCS is communicating with serproxy because I can see the thread start in the serproxy window.

However, the GCS does not seem to be receiving any information from the APM. I have verified that the APM is sending data by using the serial port monitor on the Arduino IDE. The data appears to be the format specified by Jason's .pde source code.

I am using a baud rate of 115200 in both the Arduino IDE and in the serproxy.cfg.

Is there something I am missing?

Thanks!
-Tim

you can telnet into serproxy and see the raw output to verify it is working.
