MP_Proximity: proximity pre-arm check failure when using depth camera D435

Ground Control Software Mission Planner

  1. I am trying the implement the obstacle avoidance using depth camera. I am using the UP square board along with realsense depth camera D435. In MP, I am getting an error “proximity pre-arm check failure”.

  2. In the wiki @https://ardupilot.org/copter/docs/common-realsense-depth-camera.html#common-realsense-depth-camera, the parameter “AVOID_ENABLE =7”. However, in the parameter list page @https://ardupilot.org/copter/docs/parameters.html, it has only 0-2 bits! A bit confusing!

  3. In MP, under the MAVLink explorer, I am not able to see the “obstacle_distance” message

Can you at least see the Heart Beat from the Companion Computer at GCS? If not then there might be connection issues.

Thanks. What is the best way to check that?
