Quick fix baud bug #89

Closed mjstn closed 4 years ago

mjstn commented 4 years ago

This is an attempt to workaround ubiquity_motor issue #83

We felt that some linux piece of software is initializing the /dev/ttyAMA0 serial port to 115200 baud sometimes AFTER we set it up in our motor node.

This workaround holds off on instantiation of the motor_serial instance for a couple seconds.

Although it does not really FIX root cause, it does seem to be a highly effective workaround.

Something is wrong with this branch. It also contains a much larger chunk of changes for v37 support and wheel_type. I am going to close this yet again and sort it out.
