Hi,
My SICK LMS 200, requires around 25 seconds for being initialised. Currently the sicklms node that can be found in sicktoolbox_wrapper (and by following the tutorials) generates an error as there is not enough time for showing a green led on.
I have been looking around the Sick LIDAR Matlab/C++ Toolbox, and I am not sure whether it is a good idea to modify the option DEFAULT_SICK_LMS_SICK_MESSAGE_TIMEOUT for increasing the waiting time from all sensor messages.
Moreover, I updated the file: `rospack find sicktoolbox_wrapper`/ros/sicklms/sicklms.cpp for waiting 20 seconds and call again sensor initalisation with something like this:
try{
sick_lms.Initialize(desired_baud); //desired_baud=38400
}
catch (...)
{
int time_wait=20;
if(!sick_lms.IsInitialized()){
sleep(time_wait);
sick_lms.Initialize(desired_baud); //desired_baud=38400
}
After doind this the node works. However, does anyone has a better idea of how to correct such issue?
Kind regards,
Renato.
