Monitor the Active Asset

Use Monitor to watch the live map, telemetry overlays, flight instruments, and stream status for the connected asset.

Navigation: Menu > Monitor

Before You Start

  • Connect an asset in Comm Links first.

  • Some overlays depend on GCS Settings > General and may be hidden if those view toggles are off.

Steps

  1. Open Monitor from the main menu after the asset is connected.

  1. Review the live instruments and telemetry panels to confirm the app is receiving flight data.

  1. Check the stream panel to confirm video status. If the source is unavailable, the monitor page reports the stream problem directly.

  1. If the asset disconnects, expect the monitor page to lose live context until the connection is restored.

Note

When map markers or editable shapes are selected, GCS-beXStream can open an information panel inside the map overlay. That panel is state-dependent and appears only when a selectable item is available.

Expected Result

The map centers on the active asset, telemetry values update in real time, and the monitor panels reflect the current stream and flight state.

Troubleshooting

  • If telemetry values stay static, return to Comm Links and confirm the asset is still connected.

  • If the stream panel reports an error, review the asset’s Stream Source and the stream diagnostics under GCS Settings > Stream.

  • If expected overlays are missing, check the view toggles in GCS Settings > General.
