Hi, I am trying to use rplidar a1 on my robot.

It has default front direction in ROS, but I would like to change the direction (Rotate 90 degrees to clockwise). Is that possible? If it is possible, what should I change??

Thank you.

This is wrong. It is sensor's default value. If you mounted laser with 90 degree rotated, you have to publish it's transform as rotated. This information must be published in base_link -> laser transform.
