Hello! I have a very old ptu unit, the Amtec (now Schunk) PowerCube ptu 46. I have the idea that the schunk_powercube_chain package might be able to control my powercube.

However, I'm using Hydro and i get the error message

[ERROR] [1434106787.671544191]: Parameter can_module not set, shutting down node...

and from what I understand, I need to configure using schunk_hardware_config. But that doesn't exist for Hydro. Any workarounds?

Hi,

you could try using our version of schunk_powercube_chain where we implemented support for older AMTEC modules (with older electronics).
