Hi Dan,
I send the MotorState command of 4 and have no problems.
Note: the launch file is setup for a p3dx with a PTZ connected
to an onboard computer and uses the probe camera driver to get the
video stream.
I have only been testing the changes to the p2os package on a
p3dx with an onboard computer, I don't think this should have any
issues, but it could. Let me know if the keyboard operation gives the
same problems you have now and I'll try and help debug it.

Hi
all
-
I know this has been discussed here a bit, but not in much detail.
We have a Pioneer3dx that we'd like to get up and running again. I
downloaded and compiled the p2os package which seems to be able to
successfully connect and communicate with the robot using a serial to
USB adapter. However, I'm having trouble getting the motors to do
anything sensible. The robot's motor self-test looks like it works fine,
but sending cmd_vel, all I can get is extremely slow, jerky movement
forward or backwards (no turning). I enabled the motors with:
rostopic pub cmd_motor_state -1 p2os/MotorState 1 (I also tried 4
instead of 1 which was mentioned in a previous discussion)
This feels like a communication problem between the motor commands p2os
is sending and the robot, but I don't know what's going on. Any ideas?
Thanks,
-Dan
