Hi Aria-users,

My problem was solved. 

Instead of using getx(), getY() and getTh(), I used getRawEncoderPose().getX()... 

Only then I get the correct value ... 

Thank you for the help...

Hugs

I was mistaken about that, isRunning() should work fine

What compiler are you using?  Can you print out any other information 
from ArRobot, or is it also incorrect?   It looks from your image that 
SONARNL is otherwise working correctly, right? (it path plans and 
navigates correctly?)

Hello,

Does demo otherwise work correctly, or does it also lose connection in 
other modes?  (can you drive it in teleop mode, for example)

How is the SICK connected to the Pioneer? Did you use our laser 
integration kit (power switching board)?  If so, make sure that the 
serial cable has all the needed lines connected correctly. If not, try 
running demo with the "-lpc false" argument, then it won't expect the 
laser to power on in response to the serial port being opened.

You may also need to configure the computer's BIOS to remove any 
conflicts or other problems with COM3.

Aria and Pioneer Fellows;
I have created two yahoo groups for each of Aria users and Pioneer users if you would like to join. We will enjoy the advantage of posting messages and surfing them in the future for future users. I can see that some of the messges in these lists are repeated since we don't access posted messages in the past.
Group homepages:? http://groups.yahoo.com/group/pioneer-users? and http://groups.yahoo.com/group/aria-users

There's always been archives and the ability to search the archives for 
both aria-users and pioneer-users since the beginning.  You can get to 
the archives from our support site http://robots.mobilerobots.com. 
We'll see about putting a link for searching the archive into the 
mailing list footer and/or making the archives more obvious somehow.

The easiest way to search the aria-users archive is the search box on: 
http://robots.mobilerobots.com/wiki/Aria-users_Mailing_List

The easiest way to search the pioneer-users archive is the search box on:
http://robots.mobilerobots.com/wiki/Pioneer-users_Mailing_List

I'd also like to remind people that our support site is now a Wiki and 
that you can search it by the box on the left of the support site 
http://robots.mobilerobots.com  We've set up some answers to frequently 
asked questions on it (with more to come) and we've set aside an area 
for users to edit and contribute.  There are more details at: 
http://robots.mobilerobots.com/wiki/Adding_to_this_Site
