A1 sensor not detected #18

Open void-robotics opened 5 years ago

void-robotics commented 5 years ago

Hello,

I have the following connections errors:

  1. If I connect the A1 sensor to a Virtualbox, I don't see it under Devices > USB. What is the name supposed to be?
  2. If I connect it to a Jetson Nano which already has the ACM module, it doesn't show up with lsusb or ls /dev. Why is that?
  3. When I plug the A1 into either my Windows laptop or my Jetson Nano, it is spinning, with the PWR and D1 green lights on; but, shouldn't at least the PWR one be turned on only when the driver starts?
  4. I tried connecting it to RoboStudio, but it wouldn't auto-detect and I don't think there's a way to manually add it.

I also bought 2 A1s just in case there's a hardware bug, but they both behave the same way.

Thanks, Nathan
