Hi, I updated URG-04LX laser to using SCIP 2.0 protocol, and I'm using Ubuntu Hardy. Player seems to know that the laser is connected, but cannot read any data. The LED on the laser is blinking, which means the laser is off. I tried with a tester by Hokuyo in Windows, and LED stops blinking and changes to solid light. So, I believe that the playerv doesn't show anything because the laser is not ON. In URG laser specification, there's BM and QT command, but can't find a way to use it in Linux. Is there any way to turn on the laser as initializing Player? or can I do it as I initialize laser2d ORCA component? I appreciate your help.

Looking through the code for the Player URG driver, it only explicitly switches on the laser power under a certain set of conditions. The laser has to start off in SCIP1 mode, then be successfully switched to SCIP2 by the driver. Otherwise the driver doesn't send a power-on command and so if the laser is off, it won't be turned on. It wouldn't be too hard to fix this. You can probably also tell the laser to always be on when powered by using the hokuyo config utility in Windows. However, if you're willing to use the SVN version (of either 2.1 or trunk), there's a new Hokuyo driver available (called hokuyo_aist) that works for any Hokuyo laser scanner supporting the SCIP 2.0 protocol, including the URG-04LX. This driver is more robust and, among other things, allows the laser power to be turned on and off via a PLAYER_RANGER_REQ_POWER request message. Incidentally, the laser2d ORCA component uses the same underlying library to talk to URGs as the hokuyo_aist driver (or will soon if it doesn't already - it's a replacement for an older library).

Thanks Geoffrey, I tried the hokuyo config utility in Windows, but it doesn't seem to have a feature to enable the power to be always on. I installed again the gearbox with hokuyo_aist library you mentioned. However, the player cannot find the package hokuyo_aist. I've been changing PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but they seem to not doing anything. Where can I find the package?

Gearbox was putting its pkg-config files in a difficult-to-use location. This has been fixed now. You still need to make sure that pkg-config is looking where you installed Gearbox for pkg-config files, though. For me, with Gearbox installed in my home directory, I do that like this: export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/home/geoff/lib/pkgconfig/:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH If you install in /usr/local, it would change to this: export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH You may not need to do this if your distribution of Linux already has this set up. Also, the hokuyo_aist library is still making its way through the review process, so make sure you have Gearbox set to build submitted libraries. You can do this by switching to advanced mode in ccmake and turning GBX_BUILD_SUBMITTED to ON.

At the moment you have to enable RTK in ccmake, which is disabled by default, for playerv to be built. If you run cmake instead of ccmake, you'll get a lot of output about what will be built and why. What was the error when you tried to build the libplayerc++ examples?

Thanks for the reply, I got the gearbox to look at the correct path, and installed hokuyo_aist library. runnung hokuyo_aist_example also turned on the laser. Then, I installed the player again from trunk. It was missing playerv, so I couldn't see if the laser was working or not. So, I run the robot2d and laser2d of ORCA, and they all complain about libplayerc++. I enabled EXAMPLES in ccmake. It configures, but failed to make. It was complaining about boost, which I just happen to finish installing. Is playerv feature gone? And is it right to enable EXAMPLE in ccmake to fix the libplayerc++ problem?
