Takis C, did you ever get a response to this?
I need to understand the process of compiling from  a windows [Microsoft
visual studio]
Platform, how do we setup the ARCOs library for robot requests? . Would you
have some examples we can test [something like a simple program file I can
throw in the C++ compiler and get an executable, and run the executable with
an outcome....] ?

I hope to have MobileSim working on Windows 7 soon (by the next release), but in the mean time you can use Virtual PC to run it in a virtual Windows XP system.  Virtual PC and the Windows XP image for it are free from Microsoft.

Some instructions are here: http://robots.mobilerobots.com/wiki/Run_MobileSim_In_Virtual_PC_Windows_XP_Mode

Hope this helps a bit until we can get it working correctly on Windows 7.

Message-ID: <637148.74036.qm@web120107.mail.ne1.yahoo.com>

Hi Reed,
I'm trying to do a multi robot application using 2 physical P3At robots and a 
host computer. I tried the "two robot wander" program but could not connect to 
any robot. Please tell me how should I specify host names and ports to connect 
to the two physical robots and control them using a host computer . Also how 
should I access the robots. The program works well in simulation since I don't 
have to  specify any parameters.

Thank you very much

He Sean, do you know what the wireless adepter is in the Peoplebot? (Did you buy it at the same time as the DX?) If you aren't sure I can look it up using the serial number.

Hi,

I have been experiencing some connectivity problems with the peoplebot.

I am working with the Pioneer and the peoplebot. And in comparison the wireless range/performance of the peoplebot is halt that of the P3DX.
i can only go a few feet(20-30) before the connection drops. I have installed new higher gain antennas onto both robots.
THe performance doubled, and I have no problems using the P3DX. But I still dont get anything close to the results with the peoplebot.
I'm thinking it's hardware issue. Unmounting the range finder would take a while, so I was going to ask here first.


Any tips or advice?

Best,

Sean

Hello Takis and John,

To operate the robot use the ARIA library.  This is a C++ library, which can be used with Visual Studio 2005 or Visual Studio 2008 on Windows.  ARIA communicates with the robot over COM1 (RS-232 serial port), or it can communicate with the MobileSim simulator over a local TCP socket.  Read the reference manual (Aria-Reference.html) and see the example programs in the "examples" directory.  (ARIA is installed id C:\Program Files\MobileRobots\Aria).   The ArNetworking library also has a manual and examples in the ArNetworking subdirectory of ARIA ,  and SONARNL has its own examples and documentation in C:\Program Files\MobileRobots\Arnl.    If you also purchased the laser navigation package, the ARNL library has documentation as well.

Your robot operations manual also provides a brief introduction to using some examples as well.

Reed

Is your host computer onboard one of the robots or is it a separate computer (workstation or laptop)?

If you have two separate instances of a program that uses ArSimpleConnector or ArRobotConnector to connect,  and want to connect to two remote robots that each have a wireless bridge device, you can specify the IP address or host name of a robot using the -remoteHost command line argument.

twoRobotWander.cpp instead accepts -rh1 and -rh2 command line arguments however.

(Run from a command terminal if on Windows to specify command line arguments, or add them to the Properties for a shortcut of the program.)

Hi,

just to let everyone know:
MobileSim works perfectly fine for me on Windows 7 Professional with the
"Windows Compatibility Mode"
I just needed to set the Compatibility Mode for either the executable or the
shortcut to "Windows XP (Service Pack 3)" and it works fine for simulating
amigo-sh bots.
Just right-click on the exe/shortcut => Properties => Compatibility.

Or are there any other issues with MobileSim on Windows 7?

Hello, sorry for the delay, do you still have this problem?

I would try to verify both the physical connection to the laser and also that /dev/ttyUSB1 still works in Linux (you could plug the robot into the laser's serial interface and try ./demo -rp /dev/ttyUSB1).  Since USB devices are removable Linux might assign a different name under some conditions.  (You could look at dmesg for relevant log messages).

Are you powering the laser directly or are you using our laser power controller board (its normally inside the black laser bracket, so if you are just using the existing cabling, it would be involved).  The operation of this controller is described a bit here and may help: http://robots.mobilerobots.com/wiki/SICK_Laser_Integration_Board

There have been some reports of instability (crashes) but it depends on what MobileSim is doing, including trying to draw things like the laser range.  I think it's worse on 64 bit.   For the next version I have a new GTK library with some fixes, and am doing some testing now on Windows 7 with different configurations and over some long time frames to try to see if that instability is still there with the new library.

Hi Robert,

The "Upload File" button in the configuration dialog is for restoring a saved configuration file.  To change the map, edit the field that shows the map filename.

Are you running guiServerSonar on Windows or Linux?

Can you send me Walsh.map to see if there's anything wrong with it?

Subject: [Aria-users] Creating a map for MobileEyes

Dear Group:


We are trying to get MobileEyes to work with a map created in Mapper 3 Basic by following these instructions given by SonARNL guiServerSonar when it is executed without a map parameter.



### No map file is set up, you can make a map with the following procedure

         0) You can find this information in README.txt or docs/SonarMapping.txt

       1) Start up Mapper3Basic

         2) Go to File->New

         3) Draw a line map of your area (make sure it is to scale)

         4) Go to File->Save on Robot

         5) In MobileEyes, go to Tools->Robot Config

         6) Choose the Files section

         7) Enter the path and name of your new .map file for the value of the Map parameter.

         8) Press OK and your new map should become the map used



We are able to create a map in Mapper 3 Basic, but when we try to save the map on the robot (with guiServerSonar running), we get the following messages:



Robot localhost does not have a map.

Modify the configuration to use this map (Walsh.map) instead? [Yes]



An error occurred while saving the configuration on robot localhost.

Parameter Map appeared to be in error. (Map invalid: cannot open file 'Walsh.map')



On a few occasions, we were told the map could not be saved because it was opened by another program, or something along those lines.



If we run MobileEyes, go to Robot Config, and try to change the Map value parameter, we get the following message:



File Walsh.map does not appear to be a valid configuration file. No sections were found.

Continue to load file? [Yes]



Loading the file does nothing.



At this point, even the original map columbia.map does not work anymore, although it did work last week before we made our own map.

Subject: [Aria-users] AmigoBot control application with customized server
	functionality
Message-ID: <AANLkTik-SPyw6QETVB4SPqBc54GiRVW29Db1exK=2m+u@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

in modifying the serverDemo for example to accept a connection from a custom
client application to send customized robot-data to and receive commands
from this custom client: How and where would you suggest to include the
ArSocket structures the best way? Or is there another - easier way - to
start a customized server functionality than the use of ArSocket? When I
just create an ArSocket object I still need a proper way to wait for and
accept an incomming connection.
Already had a look on netServerExample and simpleServerExample. These
structures are quite simple, but I can't really see how to include them into
the robot control programs of higher complexity.

Many thanks in advance,
Andreas
