laserscanner sick s300 showing no map on rviz only laser scan

edit

Hi friends, I am relatively new to ROS and trying to get to know it. I have a sick s300 laser distance sensor, I want to generate a 2D map using hector slam. So far I have the rviz in operation showing only the laserscan but not generating any map at all. I have been searching in the community and elsewhere for quite a bit and can't figure out. Any help would be really appreciated .

Here are my files below ( these files were available in the tutorial hector slam but are a bit modified by me), I have also included the mapping bag file from hector_slam tutorial in my launch file:

1 ) s300_config1.yaml

port: /dev/ttyUSB0 baud: 500000 scan_duration: 0.025 scan_cycle_time: 0.0400 scan_id: 7 frame_id: /base_laser_link scan_intervals: [[-1.3526, 1.361357]] fields: '1': scale: 0.01 start_angle: -2.355 stop_angle: 2.355

2) s300_launch.launch

<launch>

<!-- start laser driver -->
<node name="laser" pkg="cob_sick_s300" type="cob_sick_s300" respawn="false" output="screen">
    <rosparam command="load" file="s300_config1.yaml"/>

</node>

</launch>
