Revision history [back]

I suspect you have a networking issue here. While using electric and fuerte together is not supported and definitely not recommended, it should be fine in your case because the Twist message hasn't changed for years, i.e. it should still be compatible. Try the following:

• Start the teleop node on your PC.
• Log into husky and do a rostopic info /husky/cmd_vel. You'll see the name of the publishers and further down information about tcp/ip connections. Find out the node name that is publishing the topic.
• Execute rosnode info <teleop node name you just found out on husky. It will show you the host name of the publisher somewhere.
• Try pinging the hostname of the publisher on husky. If this does not work, you know it is a network problem because husky cannot subscribe to the topic published by your pc.

Now to fix it, have a look at the networking troubleshooting page. I guess it will be sufficient if you set ROS_IP on your PC.
