Can't get to smallcity lab to run

[Mexperseiu]

After pasting these commands,
source ~/simulation_ws/install/setup.bash
ros2 launch turtlebot3_realrobot main_turtlebot3_lab.launch.xml

it keeps bring this

and the robot does not run/respond any bash script that was written

Hi @Mexperseiu, welcome to the community!

So you are running a command that launches the turtlebot3 simulation, and also rviz by looking at your terminal output.

• The output of your terminal is showing information related to fastbot, which tells me you are connected to the SmallCity lab real robot lab.
  • We recently switched a TurtleBot3 with the FastBot in the SmallCity Lab, but you can work with both robots interchangeably.

You should never run a simulation when connected to a real robot That defeats the whole purpose of switching from simulation/real robot.

What you want to do is run the programs you have made and tested with the simulation, not run the simulation.

Thanks, but I was just following the instructions on the Linux course on running a real robot.

I will rerun it when I have chance

Hi @rodrigo55 , a tire seem to be disconnected and I am still getting the same error. While the robot seem to respond to joystick commands, rviz is not running properly and the robot is not executing my program.

It is also taking more than 60 seconds to connect. Perhaps the commands on “test your robot on real robot lab” is dated.

Hi @Mexperseiu, thank you for the information and I apologize for the continued issues.

Let me take a look at the Linux course instructions in order to identify any dated information.

I will get back to you today with the findings.
