Setup with Herelink
This is an example to setup the Zio works with ethernet telemetry on Herelink system v1.1
In this example:
Using ethernet telemetry to control Zio (gimbal and camera)
Using HDMI to do video streaming from Zio to QGroundControl
Step 1: CREATE CONFIG FILES ON MICRO SDCARD
1.1 Create file for set up a static ip address for Zio
File name: payload_setup.txt
File Content:
On the above example:
Zio IP: 192.168.144.200
Zio stream video to the IP: 192.168.144.104 at port 5000 -> we not use video streaming via ethernet
NOTE: when Zio starts up without detecting the file payload_setup.txt in the memory card, Zio will automatically reset to the default IP (192.168.50.100)
1.2 Create Config Herelink Ethernet File
File Name: zio_herelink_eth.conf
File Content: (Copy exactly below)
NOTE:: After adding two files "payload_setup.txt" and "zio_herelink_eth.conf" to micro SDcard, please reboot the Zio to apply changes.
Step 2: SETUP ON QGROUNDCONTROL APP
2.1 Disable all AutoConnect in General.
2.2 Navigate to Comm Links, add new Comm link for Ethernet telemetry
2.3 Create the new link as following
