Re: [Playerstage-users] lms200 not working

[Eric K. <eek...@ps...>]

Installed 2.1.1 and tried again.  The laser connects at 38400, and then crumps
on the mode change request.  Connecting at 9600 doesn't work.
 I often get a red light on the Sick.
I'm still not convinced that everything is ok on the connection side.
 But if it isn't, it's intermittent.
