OP2, OpenCPN, Pypilot plugin loses connection to Tiny Pilot
#9
Thanks Sean
I am running OP in AP/client mode, I will switch to client mode only and see if that solves the disconnections.

I am interested in the keypad option you have suggested, can you identify the pins for me? and what sort of keypad would I need?
If I was going to go through the trouble I may as well make it functional, I would want to engage/disengage then 4 buttons for forward/reverse for small and large heading change. Is it just a matter of closing a circuit from each pin to ground?

I have a bunch of these would they work?

Or maybe something like this

Or is a matrix keypad needed?
