Hi All

In a study project I'm trying to run the laser range scanner trough ROS. The type is URG-04LX-UG01. I'm running Ubuntu as guest and Win 10 as host. I have followed this tutorial link text but when I get to step 0.1 Running the hokuyo_node, i get a problem. I have changed ls -l /dev/ttyACM0 to ls -l /dev/ttyS0 in all steps. The Error message when typing rosrun hokuyo_node hokuyo_node is:

[Error] [1477305294.176404987]: Exception thrown while opening Hokuyo. timeout reached (in hokuyo::laser::laserReadline) You may find further details at http://ww.ros.org/wiki/hokuyo_node/Troubleshooting

Does anybody know a solution to this problem?

Regards Soren

I have tried to install urg_node but I'm not sure if I'm doing it correct. I'm installing it in the same way as the tutorials shows for the hokuyo_node but just replacing hokuyo_node with urg_node everytime. Is that correct? (Anyway that doesn't work...)

after installed the urg_node ,when you want to use it,you should use 'rosrun urg_node urg_node' just like use hokuyo_node,have a try
