When?

atomphil commented 3 years ago

Everytime, I can´t send the robo manually back to station using the web interface. Only using the hardware button on top of the device or automaticly after cleaning.

Can't confirm this - I haven't found a situation the home button on home tab isn't working on my Gen1 4018 with version 0.9.8.2

Hm, just found out that in most cases this action will reset the map of a Gen1. @rand256 I don't know if it's a bug in the code or if it's better to disable the "home" button while in cleaning!? If performing pause or stop before, the map will be still present!

I reinstalled the image and rebooted the robot. Now the Home button is working again. So the issue is not present anymore. I can confirm, that it forgot its map when pressing the home button during cleaning.

It's already sending stop command and waits for 0.9 seconds before issuing drive_home command. Maybe it's not enough though. I've made a build with timeout increased to 2 seconds. Could you try will this improve the situation?

Thanks, just did 3 runs, it was working all the time now! I think the 2 seconds solved the issue of losing the map while returning in cleaning.

This is now in 0.9.9 release.
