Using new model Lidar with Turtlebot3
I recently received a new Lidar for my Turtlebot3. The TB3 is a couple of years old and for one reason or another its Lidar "broke". As you know, TB3 now is supplied with a newer Lidar LDS-02. When we installed the new Lidar with the software that worked otherwise we see the following.
The Lidar does spin, it does publish /scan -- but we don't see any data coming over the topic.
Could this be because some slight difference between LDS-01 and LDS-02?
Hi @pitosalas
The LDS-02 starts rotating as soon as it is powered.
Please make sure if you added the LDS version setting in your .bashrc
file.
$ echo 'export LDS_MODEL=LDS-02' >> ~/.bashrc
$ source ~/.bashrc
Could you give us more details about which version of ROS you are running and how to reproduce the issue with a list of commands you entered? Thank you.
