RESULT_OPERATION_TIMEOUT on raspberry pi 3 B #78

Closed ameykasar closed 5 years ago

ameykasar commented 6 years ago

I am trying to interface RPLIDAR A1 with my Raspberry Pi 3 B 2015 Model running ubuntu 16.04 and ROS kinetic. I am receiving the following error: RESULT_OPERATION_TIMEOUT when I use roslaunch rplidar_ros rplidar.launch I tried using multiple OS images and the standalone SDK but the error persists. It works fine on my PC running Ubuntu 16.04 and ROS kinetic with same USB cable. Is this due to Raspberry Pi 3 B only having USB 2.0 ports? Help me find a solution detailed description of error here

I am experiencing the same problem with the same setup.

check your USB-line's power or your raspberry's power

For me it turned out to be a faulty unit, as soon as it was replaced everything worked as expected.

@ArthurGuy Can you elaborate? By unit do you mean Raspberry Pi or RPLIDAR?
