Telnet and Serial console

Telnet connect by IP from either type of WiFi connection to TCP port 3000 on the HBG3 Serial console by USB connection. Arduino IDE (top, Right) used for updating the internal firmware and also for monitoring/debugging the behaviour of the mount and accessories with a serial terminal program (115200bps).

Commands include:

  • Begin with the help command!
  • get all command to view settings
  • ota_update to update firmware when using an infrastructure connection
  • load defaults (followed by "save") reverts everything to "factory defaults"
  • save command makes any changes permanent
  • Setting the WiFi SSID for Direct connect
  • 'G' to toggle display of GPS NMEA sentences
  • 'n' to show detailed Nunchuck information
  • 'v' verbose tracing of AUX bus and other activity Other commands that come and go as needed.

Connect via the serial console

Located top, Right, in Arduino application when the ESP32 is connected by USB to the computer

Connect via JuiceSSH app

Works in either WiFi mode as long as the mobile device is either connected to the Direct connection or on the same network in Access Point Mode.

Default IP in Direct connection is 1.2.3.4

JuiceSSH telnet settings for direct connection.

When using Access Point Mode (connected to home network infrastructure a network scan may be required to locate the IP, if an OLED is not installed. I recommend Fing or Network Analyser.
