Package Description

What to check if roch does not bring up properly
  • Does roch stream data?

lsusb # See if there is "10c4:ea60 Future Technology Devices International, Ltd FT232 USB-Serial (UART) IC"

dmesg # See what happen when roch usb is plugged.

  • Is there /dev/roch?

rosrun roch_ftdi create_udev_rules

  • Is roch serial number correct?

sudo ./get_serial_number # in the directory of roch_ftdi scripts

Check if it is different from below

Device #0
