SATPRO

Connections and Interfaces

 

General Connections

Ethernet Vídeo: Communications for XVRE HD video receiver or any local device that needs ethernet. It also works as a normal Ethernet for any system that is in your arms and needs it, such as a video camera.

Aux. Video HD: Power supply and auxiliary communications for HD XLRS video receiver.

Power Switch: ON/OFF switch for SATPRO.

Battery Connector: To connect the SATPRO battery.

Fuse: Value 5A, if the fuse blows due to excessive consumption before replacing it, please consult DMD, because if this happens, there is overconsumption and possibly an electrical fault.

Wifi: Internal or external with SMA-Female.

RCBus: communications line for XLRS systems such as the Data Link WMX481. It is a stereo Jack with power and data.

External Connections & Interfaces

External Battery: You can connect a higher capacity external battery to power the SATPRO.

The battery voltage can be between 12Vdc to 24Vdc with a minimum of 5Ah. No matter the battery technology.

You can connect the SATPRO battery and the external battery at the same time, but SATPRO will only consume from the battery with the highest voltage.

The connection is protected, if you invert the terminals nothing will happen. You can use the supplied cable.

 

External Interfaces:

It has RCBus, Ethernet and Wifi. For third-party devices we have USB (CURCB) and Serial TTL adapters (CTRCB).

RCBUS: Communications between XLRS devices. You can connect directly to  XLRS Ground Controls Stations such as GCSD5 or XLRS remote controllers.  

Ethernet: Communications between HD video and PC or GCSD4V2, GCSD5, etc.
In versions 1.xx Ethernet is only available for HD video and other devices, not for commands or access to the SATPRO position.

Wifi: Wifi for SATPRO command access: firmware in preparation.

USB: You can connect a PC to directly control the position of the SATPRO using commands or use Mission Planner, QGround Control or similar to 115.200b. You will need the CURCB converter.
