Thanks for reporting this. We will check the angle shift for the TiM-240.
We checked the angle shift for the TiM-240 with both sick_scan_xd and sick_scan. rivz showed identical and correct pointcloud and laserscan messages in both versions:
rviz-screenshot using latest version of sick_scan_xd:
rviz-screenshot using sick_scan:
Did you use the latest sick_scan_xd release with default launchfile sick_tim_240.launch? Please post a complete logfile or screenshots of all sick_scan_xd messages from start. The output should look like this:

Thanks for further information and logfile. We could not reproduce this error with our previous test (see comment above). It might be related to the configuration of the ascii communication protocol type according to the logfile. Please use the default settings in sick_tim_240.launch incl. the binary protocol type, i.e. <param name="use_binary_protocol" type="bool" value="True"/>
(default configuration in sick_tim_240.launch). The IP address of the lidar can be set either in the launchfile or by commandline option hostname:=192.168.3.30
.
I will try and provide feedback, but I don't think it has something to do with the binary protocol, because the old sick_scan driver works normally also with ascii protocol.
Many thanks for following up! Btw: Which of your screenshots shows the correct orientation, the one by sick_scan or by sick_scan_xd?
The screen shot by sick_scan is correct. And you are right, after set the protocol to binary, they are the same now, but I just don't understand why will this happen. Why will it has relationship with the protocol format? old_sick_scan driver(ASCII):
sick_scan_xd driver(Binary):
Thank you for your feedback and testing. We are clarifying automatically switching into binary mode for the TiM240 (see #226). In the short term, we recommend using SOPAS ET to preset the lidars to binary mode.
We updated the protocol switching for the TiM-240 in branch feature/tim240_protocol_switch. Please checkout https://github.com/SICKAG/sick_scan_xd/tree/feature/tim240_protocol_switch, rebuild and try again using binary protocol. If the TiM-240 is in Cola-Ascii mode, it will be switched to Cola-B (binary protocol) and restarted after a few seconds.
Ok, will try it, thanks
After testing, it's confirmed it's working to change the ascii protocol to binary protocol, but after it's changed to binary mode, if I change use_binary_protocol
to false, though at the begining from the output log, there is no error out, but there is also no data published. and after about 150s, there is error out which says there is no data published after about 150s and the driver shutdown automatically.
Thanks for your feedback. Support for the ascii communication protocol is being phased out. Please use the binary communication mode with default setting <param name="use_binary_protocol" type="bool" value="true"/>

unfortunately, this issue happens again in this new repository, please see the pictures below, the first one is from the archived repository, and the second one is from this new repository. Could you explain why this happens again? Thanks.
