Hi, I am having a problem of baud rate with sick lms200 laser when using sicktoolbox_wrapper. I am using ubuntu 10.04 and ROS electric. I followed the tutorial on http://www.ros.org/wiki/sicktoolbox_wrapper/Tutorials/UsingTheSicklms

When I set the baud rate to be 38400: rosparam set sicklms/baud 38400.The laser works well,but there is a waring:

                A scan was probably missed.

However,when I set the baud rate to be 500000,the laser can't work ,of course ,the baud of laser is 500k.The error is as follow:

[ERROR] [1346919668.935157216]: Initialize failed! are you using the correct device path?

Is someone using the sicklms200 with the baud rate of 500k well? Maybe you can give me some advices! Thanks in advance!
