How to init vcan0?

I need to use can::SocketCANInterface ?

can::Frame msg1;
msg1.id = 1;
msg1.data = {1,2,3,4};
  const string driv("vcan0");
  can::SocketCANInterface driver;

  printf("init = %d\n",driver.init(driv, true));
  printf("rec = %d\n",driver.recover());
  printf("state = %d\n",(int)driver.getState().isReady());
  printf("send = %d\n",driver.send(msg1));

Output:

init = 1
rec = 0
state = 0
send = 0

And how to send messages using a dictionary in canopen_chain_node .

canopen_chain_node configured correctly and launched.

Please, help to understand, I am a beginner to ROS.

My .yaml file

Does anyone have an example?

How to init vcan0?

For setting up vcan, just follow the directions in the driver documentaion, section 6.4

And how to send messages using a dictionary in canopen_chain_node .

You cannot send message using a dictionary. But you can use the (currently undocumented) set_object service to write to the (remote) node object dictionary.

I don't understand. How do I use canopen_chain_nod to send commands to a device? И как получать сообщения от устройства? Thank You!

You have to interact with the corresponding objects of the dictionary. This is device-specific. In most cases these dictionaries are standardized as device profiles. Please stick to English.

How i can to interact with the corresponding objects of the dictionary? I Need to use the topics? I need something to prescribe in .a yaml file for this? Thank You!

Just configure and initialize canopen_chain_node and use the provided services.

My .yaml file this is a sufficient configuration?

If i add

node1:
  publish: ["1003sub0!"]

do I have to subscribe to the topic 1003sub0 to receive messages from the device? Or I need to publish in topic for the device?

Dizett ( 2018-02-22 05:40:35 -0500 )edit

The canopen_chain_node does not care if someone subscribes to the topics. It will just read the object (per SDO or PDO) periodically and publish it at the SYNC/update rate.

an example on Python

self.steer_controller = self.network.add_node(0x01 ,'/home/turtle1/ros/base_control/eds/phyPS409Y.eds')
steer_controller.sdo[0x6411][2].raw = value

Does it have to look like this in ros?

  ros::Publisher pub = nh.advertise<std_msgs::Int16>("node2_6411sub2",20);
  ...
  std_msgs::Int16 a;
  pub.publish(a);
