Software applications¶
Once the Autopilot 1x has been connected to a computer, it is necessary to use Veronte Link to establish communication between both devices.
Veronte Link¶
Veronte Link establishes communication between a computer and Veronte Autopilot 1x by creating a VCP bridge. It allows to use multiple control stations and devices to be interconnected, operating simultaneously. Veronte Link also includes a post-flight viewer, to reproduce all recorded data from previous flights and generate plots and reports.
