# 硬体仿真(HITL) :::warning 硬体仿真被 [社区支持和维护](../simulation/community_supported_simulators.md) It may or may not work with current versions of PX4. See [Toolchain Installation](../dev_setup/dev_env.md) for information about the environments and tools supported by the core development team. ::: 硬件在环仿真模式 (HITL 或 HIL) 下 PX4 固件代码运行在真实的飞行控制器硬件平台上。 这种方法的优点是可以在实际硬件上测试大多数的实际飞行代码。 PX4 支持多轴( [jMAVSim](../sim_jmavsim/index.md)或[Gazebo Classic](../sim_gazebo_classic/index.md))及VTOL (using Gazebo Classic)的仿真。 ## HITL兼容机架 机架与模拟器兼容情况: | 机架 | `SYS_AUTOSTART` | Gazebo Classic | jMAVSim | | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------- | -------------- | ------- | | [HIL Quadcopter X](../airframes/airframe_reference.md#copter_simulation_hil_quadcopter_x) | 1002 | Y | Y | | [HIL Standard VTOL QuadPlane](../airframes/airframe_reference.md#vtol_standard_vtol_hil_standard_vtol_quadplane) | 4001 | Y | | ## HITL 仿真环境 硬件在环仿真(HITL)模式下标准的 PX4 固件在真实的硬件上运行。 JMAVSim or Gazebo Classic (running on a development computer) are connected to the flight controller hardware via USB/UART. The simulator acts as gateway to share MAVLink data between PX4 and _QGroundControl_. :::info The simulator can also be connected via UDP if the flight controller has networking support and uses a stable, low-latency connection (e.g. a wired Ethernet connection - WiFi is usually not sufficiently reliable). For example, this configuration has been tested with PX4 running on a Raspberry Pi connected via Ethernet to the computer (a startup configuration that includes the command for running jMAVSim can be found in [px4_hil.config](https://github.com/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/blob/main/posix-configs/rpi/px4_hil.config)). ::: The diagram below shows the simulation environment: - A HITL configuration is selected (via _QGroundControl_) that doesn't start any real sensors. - _jMAVSim_ or _Gazebo Classic_ are connected to the flight controller via USB. - The simulator is connected to _QGroundControl_ via UDP and bridges its MAVLink messages to PX4. - _Gazebo Classic_ and _jMAVSim_ can also connect to an offboard API and bridge MAVLink messages to PX4. - (Optional) A serial connection can be used to connect Joystick/Gamepad hardware via _QGroundControl_. ![HITL Setup - jMAVSim and Gazebo Classic](../../assets/simulation/px4_hitl_overview_jmavsim_gazebo.svg) ## HITL 相比于 SITL 相比之下, HITL 在正常飞控硬件平台上运行正常的处于 ”HITL 模式“ 的 PX4 固件。 仿真数据进入整个仿真系统的时间点与 SITL 有所不同。 By contrast, HITL runs normal PX4 firmware in "HITL mode", on normal hardware. The simulation data enters the system at a different point than for SITL. Core modules like commander and sensors have HITL modes at startup that bypass some of the normal functionality. 完成所有的配置设定后 关闭 QGroundControl 并断开飞控板与计算机的连接。 ## 配置 HITL ## Check if HITL is in Firmware The module required for HITL ([`pwm_out_sim`](../modules/modules_driver.md#pwm-out-sim)) is not built into all PX4 firmware by default. To check if the module is present on your Flight Controller: 1. Open QGroundControl 2. Open **Analyze Tools > Mavlink Console**. 3. Type the following command in the console: ```sh pwm_out_sim status ``` 4. If the returned value is `nsh: pwm_out_sim: command not found`, then you don't have the module installed. If `pwm_out_sim` is not present you will need to add it to the firmware in order to use HITL simulation. ### Adding HITL modules to the Firmware Add the following key to the configuration file for your flight controller to include the required module (for an example see [boards/px4/fmu-v6x/default.px4board](https://github.com/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/blob/main/boards/px4/fmu-v6x/default.px4board)). Then re-build the firmware and flash it to the board. ```text CONFIG_MODULES_SIMULATION_PWM_OUT_SIM=y ``` You can alternatively use the following command to launch a GUI configuration tool, and interactively enable them at the path: **modules > Simulation > pwm_out_sim**. For example, to update fmu-v6x you would use: ```sh make px4_fmu-v6x boardconfig ``` ### PX4 配置 1. Connect the autopilot directly to _QGroundControl_ via USB. 2. 选择机架 1. Open **Setup > Airframes** 2. Select a [compatible airframe](#compatible_airframe) you want to test. Then click **Apply and Restart** on top-right of the _Airframe Setup_ page. 3. 如有必要, 校准您的 RC 遥控器 或操纵杆。 4. 设置 UDP 1. Under the _General_ tab of the settings menu, uncheck all _AutoConnect_ boxes except for **UDP**. ![QGC Auto-connect settings for HITL](../../assets/gcs/qgc_hitl_autoconnect.png) 5. (可选) 配置操纵杆和故障保护。 Set the following [parameters](../advanced_config/parameters.md) in order to use a joystick instead of an RC remote control transmitter: - [COM_RC_IN_MODE](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#COM_RC_IN_MODE) to "Joystick/No RC Checks". 这允许操纵杆输入并禁用 RC 输入检查。 - [NAV_RCL_ACT](../advanced_config/parameter_reference.md#NAV_RCL_ACT) to "Disabled". 这可确保在没有无线遥控的情况下运行 HITL 时 RC 失控保护不会介入。 :::tip The _QGroundControl User Guide_ also has instructions on [Joystick](https://docs.qgroundcontrol.com/master/en/qgc-user-guide/setup_view/joystick.html) and [Virtual Joystick](https://docs.qgroundcontrol.com/master/en/qgc-user-guide/settings_view/virtual_joystick.html) setup. ::: Once configuration is complete, **close** _QGroundControl_ and disconnect the flight controller hardware from the computer. ### X-Plane HITL 仿真环境 总而言之, HITL 在真实硬件上运行标准 PX4 固件,而 SITL 实际上要比标准 PX4 系统执行更多的代码。 #### Gazebo Classic :::info Make sure _QGroundControl_ is not running! ::: 1. Build PX4 with [Gazebo Classic](../sim_gazebo_classic/index.md) (in order to build the Gazebo Classic plugins). ```sh cd DONT_RUN=1 make px4_sitl_default gazebo-classic ``` 2. Open the vehicle model's sdf file (e.g. **Tools/simulation/gazebo-classic/sitl_gazebo-classic/models/iris_hitl/iris_hitl.sdf**). 3. Replace the `serialDevice` parameter (`/dev/ttyACM0`) if necessary. ::: info The serial device depends on what port is used to connect the vehicle to the computer (this is usually `/dev/ttyACM0`). An easy way to check on Ubuntu is to plug in the autopilot, open up a terminal, and type `dmesg | grep "tty"`. The correct device will be the last one shown. ::: 4. Set up the environment variables: ```sh source Tools/simulation/gazebo-classic/setup_gazebo.bash $(pwd) $(pwd)/build/px4_sitl_default ``` and run Gazebo Classic in HITL mode: ```sh gazebo Tools/simulation/gazebo-classic/sitl_gazebo-classic/worlds/hitl_iris.world ``` 5. Start _QGroundControl_. It should autoconnect to PX4 and Gazebo Classic. #### jMAVSim (仅适用于四旋翼无人机) :::info Make sure _QGroundControl_ is not running! ::: 1. 将飞行控制器连接到计算机, 并等待其启动。 2. 在 HITL 模式下运行 jMAVSim (r如有必要,修改串口号名称 /dev/ttyACM0 - 比如,在 Mac OS 上该参数应为 /dev/tty.usbmodem1): sh ./Tools/jmavsim_run.sh -q -d /dev/ttyACM0 -b 921600 -r 250 ```sh ./Tools/simulation/jmavsim/jmavsim_run.sh -q -s -d /dev/ttyACM0 -b 921600 -r 250 ``` ::: info Replace the serial port name `/dev/ttyACM0` as appropriate. On macOS this port would be `/dev/tty.usbmodem1`. On Windows (including Cygwin) it would be the COM1 or another port - check the connection in the Windows Device Manager. ::: 3. Start _QGroundControl_. 它应该会自动连接 PX4 和 Gazebo 。 ## 在 HITL 仿真中执行自主飞行任务 You should be able to use _QGroundControl_ to [run missions](https://docs.qgroundcontrol.com/master/en/qgc-user-guide/fly_view/fly_view.html#missions) and otherwise control the vehicle.
