This section explains how to get logs out of Skynode S
We are improving logging and logs transfer on Skynode S. We understand this method might be a bit cumbersome, but it is just temporary.
Skynode S stores flight logs in the internal storage of the companion computer. The flight log starts when arming the drone, and stops when disarming the drone.
At the moment it is not possible to enable logging from boot, but we are working on it.
Logging is automatically enabled, but can be disable by setting the override variable DATA_LOGGER_ENABLED to 0.
To retrieve the flight logs from Skynode S you need to be able to SSH into it, either by connecting to it over USB-C, or by having a connection between Skynode S and the laptop through a data link.
The logs are located in the folder /data/log/flight-stack and you can download them using scp:
scp root@<SKYNODE_S_IP>:/data/log/flight-stack/* <PATH_TO_STORE_LOGS>Where:
<SKYNODE_S_IP> is the IP address of Skynode S (10.41.1.1 if connected over USB-C)
<PATH_TO_STORE_LOGS> is the path where you want the logs to be saved to
The command above pulls all the logs in the folder; if you need to get a specific log, you have to SSH into Skynode S and not down the name of the log you need, then run the command
scp root@<SKYNODE_S_IP>:/data/log/flight-stack/<LOG_NAME> <PATH_TO_STORE_LOGS>Where:
<SKYNODE_S_IP> is the IP address of Skynode S (10.41.1.1 if connected over USB-C)
<PATH_TO_STORE_LOGS> is the path where you want the logs to be saved to
<LOG_NAME> is the name of the log, including the extension .ulg
