Universal Driver

Universal driver can be used to connect and display data from non-integrated (custom-developed) payloads and sensors.

Note

Never connect any payload when the system is powered on.

Attach the custom sensor to the drone.
Connect the data transfer cable to the SkyHub Connector #4 (white) or Connector #5 (blue).
Connect the power cable to the SkyHub power output port #7 (if necessary).

Power on the system.

Establish either the drone link or auxiliary connection with the SkyHub in the UgCS-CPM software.
On the main screen of the UgCS-CPM, click on the “Payloads” button.
From the available payload list, enable the “Universal driver”.
Press the “Save” button and confirm system reload.

Wait until the reload process is finished and the connection to the SkyHub is reestablished.

On the main screen of the UgCS-CPM, click the “Start” button.
From the drop-down widget list, select the “Universal driver” and press the blue “plus” button.
To access the configuration menu, press on the “three-dot” icon on the upper right corner of the widget and select “Settings”.
