# On MAVLink Packet Received

## Overview

![The On MAVlink Packet Received Node.](https://2628349686-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fwnv17cpjDin2deSlOz0z%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-11d6e64c1b87ff6e27d89a779d8260213905d07f%2Fonmavlinkpacketreceive.png?alt=media)

**On MAVLink Packet Received** is an **Event Listener Node** allowing the user to trigger a **Logic Branch** when *MAVLink* data is received and returns it in the form of a binary `Message`. This message needs to be decoded to access the data, which is done with [**MAVLink Decode**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/2023.1/toolbox/communication/mavlink/mavlink-decode).

**MAVLink Communication** in **Incari** is available as a plugin and is enabled as default. However, in the case that it is disabled in the **Plugins Editor**, it will not appear in the **Project Settings** and **On MAVLink Packet Received** will not show up in the [**Toolbox**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/2023.1/toolbox/overview). Please refer to the [**Plugins Editor**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/2023.1/modules/plugins) to find out more information.

[**Scope**](https://github.com/cgi-studio-gmbh/incari-doc/blob/2023.1/toolbox/communication/overview.md#scopes): **Project**, **Scene**.

| `Configuration` | **Drop-Down** | The desired *MAVLink* serial port, which refers back to the selections made under *MAVLink* in the [**Project Settings**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/2023.1/modules/project-settings/mavlink). |

## Outputs

| *Pulse Output* (►) | **Pulse**  | A standard **Output Pulse**, to move onto the next **Node** along the **Logic Branch**, once this **Node** has finished its execution. |
| `Message`          | **Binary** | The returned `Message`. This will be given to **MAVLink Decode** to extract the data.                                                  |
