Hi,
I am new to this and this and have a very hard time finding info about this...
I just bought a moitessier hat 2 and a raspberry pi 4. I have installed open plotter and everything seems to work.
the communications between the programs seems to be set up from start so i assume open cpn and pypilot are communicating.
My goal is to set up a route in open cpn and have the boat follow it.
My questions;
-What program outputs the directions for the motor driver?
-And in what "form"(nmea?) is the output?
I first assumed that the info when following a chart route went like this:
Open Cpm --> Pypilot --> motor
But the serial connections in pypilot however seem to only be inputs?
I have connected an arduino nano every to the raspberry via usb and i can find it amongst the serial connections but then how do i set it up as a motor output?
I have some experience with arduinos and have controlled larger motors before and hoped it would be quite easy to read a direction from the raspberry pi and just drive the motor a bit... however the motor.ino seems very complex
