Hi, I am trying these days using a joystick with paparazzi, but
don’t know exactly what can I do with the current software, these are the
steps I’ve taken up-to-now: First of all, and following Paul Cox notes I have connected
my simulator radio to the computer and launched the joystick test program from
sw/ground_segment/joystick. It has output info like the provided by Paul (axis,
buttons and a name of the usb device). Then, I have modified the .xml file in the same path in
order to accomplish with the number of buttons and axis I had. (I had an error
related to the path where it was looking for the messages.xml file, but could
link the wrong path(for me, provided that I have installed paparazzi in the
home folder) to the right one. Then, I had a message in the terminal telling
that the device was ok and a broadcasting address. I have verified the datalink message set actuators had the
label forwarded. Finally, I have launched the iviprobe, but apart from a
READY, I have had no more messages in the terminal. Executing enter again, it
said no-peer. I supposed Paul used the joystick with the target:
setup_actuators, and tried to compile and upload it(in a tiny and a twog),
launching session and so on, with the subsystem joystick defined in the
airframe file, as well as the target setup_actuators, and the settings file
setup_actuators…but of course I had no idea what this target is used for,
and with iviprobe I could see a lot of messages, but not the one called set
actuators. Any guideline? Has the joystick been used with the target
sim or ap? Have I missed some configuration step? I have read something related
to a flight plan with a joystick block, and I have seen something related to
using the joystick with the booz, I have also seen there is a message called
raw_joystick…but can’t find out how all these things could patch
all together, so any info would be really apreciated. Thanks |
