Quickstart Guide
This section provides a Quickstart guide
When you received XBLink, all software has been installed, you can check your credential on your box. Note: Please do not install any software or flash XBLink
Video
Step 1: Setup XBLink
Insert your nano SIM card
Connect LTE antennas
Note: Be careful with the antenna port. Remove or Install it in a straight angle. We are not responsible if the antenna is damaged due to physical impact
Connect Flight Controller
You can use Telemetry 1 or 2 of pixhawk for connection with XBLink. Telemetry 1 is normally used for Telemetry Radio (like: RFD900...) and Telemetry 2 for XBLink.
Connect Camera
Note: For another payload via CSI or HDMI, please conntact us
Power
XBLink supports 7-16V voltage input. You can directly connect 3 S battery to power XBLink (6S battery is inefficient and unstable with long-term use)
Note: Please use 3S battery or 12V DC Ubec (minimum 3A) for high effective and stable performance power supply to XBLink. If you use 6S high discharge battery for drone, we are not responsible for damage
Note: Please check carefully, avoid wrong between Power Port and UART Port (also use for Cooling Fan), both is JST-GH 4 Pin. We are not responsible for this confusion.

Done
Step 2: Connect Flight Controller
You can use Telemetry 1 or 2 of pixhawk for connection with XBLink. Telemetry 1 is normally used for Telemetry Radio (like: RFD900...) and Telemetry 2 for XBLink.
The baudrate on XBLink must be same with Pixhawk baudrate (Telemery 1 or 2).
For ArduPilot: SERIAL2_BAUD = 57(Default, it means 57600), SERIAL2_PROTOCOL=2 (MAVLink 2)
For PX4: SER_TEL2_BAUD = 57600 (Default 921600, you should change to 57600 for save data)
Note: If you have problem with Telemetry 2 port, you can use Telemetry 1 Port (Default baud rate Telemetry 1 is 57600, MAVLink:1). XBLink still works normally with both MAVLink 1 and MALink 2.
Step 3: Connect XBStationPilotApp and Ground Station Software
Open XBStationPilotApp
Login (Username and password in XBLink box)
Connect to GCS

Step 4: Test and Flight
Put XBLink on your drone
Check the connection between XBLink to Pixhawk, Camera, SIM Card, Antennas
Connect battery
Waiting about 30s for XBLink start up
Check led Indicator: https://docs.xbstation.com/xblink/led-indicator
Open XBStationPilotApp, Login
Connect to GCS: QGroundcontrol or Mission Planner
Optional: Register your Email and change your Password
