Trouble Shooting

What to check if roch does not bring up properly

• Does roch stream data?

cat /dev/roch # check if any data stream happens

• Does roch appear as USB device?

lsusb # See if there is “10c4:ea60 Future Technology Devices International, Ltd FT232 USB-Serial (UART) IC”

dmesg # See what happen when roch usb is plugged.

• Is there /dev/roch?

rosrun roch_ftdi create_udev_rules

• Is roch serial number correct?

sudo ./get_serial_number # in the directory of roch_ftdi scripts

Check if it is different from below

Device #0
  Manufacturer : SawYer Robot
  Product      : iClebo roch
  Serial Number: roch_A601D86G

If it is different,

sudo ./flasher # in the directory of roch_ftdi scripts

Then check the serial again.
