Hello,

Recently I have bought 2 items from ppzuav.com.
They are:
1. GPS module LEA 5H from http://ppzuav.com/osc/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=13_8&products_id=95
2. TWOG v 1 board http://ppzuav.com/osc/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=2&products_id=60

As you may have already know, there's a connector on the LEA5H that I can easily link up to the TWOG.
Right now, I am trying to link the TWOG to my computer via a serial cable with the help of MAX3232 set at 3.3V so that I am able to get a location in the GCS software.


In Ubuntu, I changed the session in the top right of the Paparazzi window to Flight USB-Serial@9600 and press Execute.

After that, the program says: Failure ("Error opening modem serial device: fd< 0 (/dev/ttyUSB0)")

How can this problem be rectified?

I also understand that there's a SPI interface on the TWOG.
Can i purchase an inertia measurement unit like this

and mount it on the TWOG?
