1. Enable Network Connectivity:

   • Turn on your Wi-Fi router, or enable your hotspot.

   • If using a hotspot, note down the device’s IP address.

2. Open Command Line Interface (CLI):

   • Enter the following command:

     Code Block
     mavproxy --master=udp:127.0.0.1:14550 --out x.x.x.x:port_number

   • Replace x.x.x.x with the forwarding IP address:

     • Router: Use 192.168.0.2

     • Hotspot: Enter your noted IP address.

   • Replace port_number with 16550.

   • Code Block
     mavproxy --master=udp:127.0.0.1:14550 --out 192.168.0.2:16550

Arduino and Antenna Setup

*If using router for MavProxy - At this point make sure the Laptop you are using is connected the same Router connection

1. Arduino IDE Configuration:

   • Open Arduino IDE

   • Select the XIAO_ESP32C3 as the board.

   • Open the Serial Moniter

   • Upload the Arduino-TA code to the Seeeduino board on the tracking antenna.

2. Calibrate the Antenna:

   • Identify the north direction and align the tracking antenna accordingly:

   • Use the Serial Monitor to adjust the antenna direction:

     • Enter ‘a’ to move -3 degrees.

     • Enter ‘d’ to move +3 degrees.

   • Press space and hit enter once calibration Antenna is completefacing north.

...

Final Check

• The tracking antenna should now follow the drone’s location.

• Data will display in the Serial Monitor and the MAVproxy window.

• Once everything is functioning, you may disconnect the USB cable between the laptop and the Seeeduino board.
