Only a source of telemetry at a time is possible, so, if RS-232 operation is desired and the
Open button is disabled, click on Stop button in the Replay Flight File section or the
Disconnect button in the Network section
2.6.1.1.2 Replaying a flight file
It is possible to replay an old recorded flight. To do so, click Select File and choose the file
to replay in the dialog that will open.
Once opened it is possible to pause, accelerate and decelerate with the corresponding
buttons, or select a specific time of the flight using the slider bar.
While the replay is ongoing the rest of the dialog will be disabled.

2.6.1.1.3 Network client
U-See can decode telemetry received through a TCP/IP connection and relayed by another
computer connected through RS-232 to U-Ground. Only the U-See instance connected
physically to the serial port of the U-Ground receiving hardware will have the capability to
emit a command to the UAV

.
To operate in this manner, write the hostname (or IP) and port the server is and click on
Connect. Upon successful, connection, the rest of the dialog will be disabled, the Connect
button will be grayed out and the Disconnect button will be enabled.
Hostname resolution is supported, as well as IPv4 and IPv6 ips.
Only a source of telemetry at a time is possible, so, if networking client operation is
desired and the Connect button is disabled, click on Close button in the Serial Port section
or the Stop button in the Replay Flight File section.
U-See can still operate as a server of data while in network client mode. This allows daisy
chaining several copies of U-See, although this is not recommended.
2.6.1.2 Comms with other systems
This section of the dialog is used to re-transmit the received data to third systems, even
allowing a translation of protocol to allow intercommunication with different
manufacturer's system.
Current standard U-See version won't accept a command from a client connected to this
export facility. To allow such behaviour, please, contact Airelectronics with your request.
