4 x Sonar L04xMTW on a Pixhawk 2.4.8

Hardware Pixhawk family

Hi,
Is it possible to connect up to four L04xMTW underwater sonar sensors to a Pixhawk 2.4.8 following the instructions here: https://ardupilot.ardupilot.org/rover/docs/common-sonar-L04xMTW-GL04xMT.html

My goal is to create a ROV that autonomously dives in a pool without hitting the walls.
From reading the documentation it seems as if there are enough serial ports available.

It should work ok. You can use CAN nodes if you run out of ports.

You can use this to convert up to 4 sensors to mavlink using a rp2040 board, that way you only need a single serial port.

Thank you very much for helping! It will take some time for me to create, but I will post updates once progress has been made.
