Step 4 The browser interface

On the openplotter pypilot User Interface screen, there are two more buttons ‘Browser Control’, and ‘Open’. 'Browser Control' is a toggle, you can switch it on, and it enables the browser interface.

When you click 'Open', it starts a browser on http://localhost:8080, which is where the browser interface sits.

Note: on Tinypilot, the interface sits at port :80

In fact, you can also open the browser interface from the machine where you are running your VNC client on. Just type http://10.10.10.1:8080/ and you see the browser interface.

At the moment of writing, it shows pypilot Server: Not Connected. This seems to be related to a library incompatibity that can be solved with the following workaround:

pip uninstall python-socketio python-engineio
pip install "python-socketio<5"
