I also have a need there... Although you write that it works with PN 24180, I get "error" in Companion. What can I do?

I have the same issue. I wonder if a previous firmware or hardware revision did not require the login credentials by default, as my 24180 does in the GUI, since there is not a field for this in the connection settings.

Using a serial adapter, the serial port on the blackbird and the 'tsp Generic' module configured to that serial port gets me functionality using the control commands in the included instruction manual. I use the 'tcp-udp generic module' pointed at the port I set up in the 'tsp Generic' module. No line-end character for configured tcp commands.

do i just need to do what gregatjhu is doing and "Using a serial adapter, the serial port on the blackbird and the 'tsp Generic' module configured to that serial port gets me functionality using the control commands in the included instruction manual.

Hi Jarrad91

Yes it works. I did it with a common USB - Serial Adapter. I can send you my configuration if you like.

[Jarrad91]

oh that would be incredble! Yes please prsmvt

Just adding to this thread that I also have a need for this module. I get the same "error" message as described above. Will try using prsmvt's module (thanks for that btw!)

Same as last poster. would love an update for this to v3 and for it to work with the 24180 model
