COSMOS EyasSat Interface

[ivansavytskyy]

Hello, how do we interface with our EyasSat GEN 5 using COSMOS 5.0? We have followed the tutorials to create targets, however we are unsure on how to connect to the EyasSat specifically. Thank you.

@ivansavytskyy Hi! We're a group of researchers from Virginia Tech in the same boat as you. Did you find a way to get it working?

EyesSat comes with a COSMOS 4 configuration. That should port fairly easy to COSMOS 5. See https://docs.openc3.com/docs/getting-started/upgrading for directions on updating to OpenC3 COSMOS 5.

@ryanmelt We have c3 for COSMOS 5 installed. However, we are missing the Eyessat-specific configuration files that the company was supposed to send over during the purchase process in 2020. The company has been unresponsive to any attempts at connection thus far. We're hoping to see if anyone on here has those configuration files or an alternative solution.

I sent an email to Genah at EyasSat to see if she can get that for you. If you don't hear anything back, I have some friends at Stephenson Stellar that I think have already done the port and might be willing to share.
