9.2 MAVLink
MAVLink or Micro Air Vehicle Link is a protocol for communicang with small unmanned vehicles. It is used by
UAV autopilots like Pixhawk.
Autopilots or any device supporng MAVLink messages can be connected to WIRIS Pro unied interface cable
with a 4 pin connector. As for the physical layer, the Workswell WIRIS system is designed for UART with operang
voltage of 5 V, although it is tolerant to 3.3 V.
UART at baud rate 57600 bps
supports GPS and camera commands to save frames or record video
operang voltage of 5 V, although it is tolerant to 3.3 V
GPS connected to the GPS connector is indicated by the GPS icon in the Status bar
WIRIS Pro supports the following MAVLink messages:
MAVLINK_MSG_ID_GLOBAL_POSITION_INT
MAVLINK_MSG_ID_GPS_STATUS
