Not able to set BinningHorizontal for Chamaleon chameras #25

Hi,

I tried to launch Acquisition but I am running into an obscure error that the cameras do not support color. 

[FATAL] [1559835607.362157355]: Unable to set BinningHorizontal to 2 (ptr retrieval). Aborting...
[FATAL] [1559835607.362460003]: Error: Spinnaker: GenICam::AccessException= Node is not writable. : AccessException thrown in node 'BinningHorizontal' while calling 'BinningHorizontal.SetValue()' (file 'IntegerT.h', line 77) [-2006]
[ WARN] [1559835607.362504777]: Most likely cause for this error is if your camera can't support color and your are trying to set it to color mode

  what():  Spinnaker: GenICam::AccessException= Node is not writable. : AccessException thrown in node 'TriggerSoftware' while calling 'TriggerSoftware.Execute()' (file 'CommandT.h', line 61) [-2006]

Also, I am trying to use two cameras and this is the modified configuration file : `cam_ids:

Assign all the follwing via launch file to prevent confusion and conflict

save_path: ~/catkin_ws save_type: .bmp #binary or .tiff or .bmp binning: 1 # going from 2 to 1 requires cameras to be unplugged and replugged color: true

frames: 50

soft_framerate: 4 # this frame rate reflects to the software frame rate set using ros::rate exp: 997

to_ros: true #When to_ros is not selected, but live is selected, pressing 'space' exports single image to ROS`

The cameras are these : https://www.flir.com/products/chameleon3-usb3/?model=CM3-U3-13Y3C-CS

Which I am pretty sure are color cameras

Did you figure it out?

I'm struggling with the same problem. I use Blackfly BFLY-PGE-23S6C. I don't think enabling color mode is the problem for me either, my camera supports color (have checked it using spinview).

Hi, No I was not. I just switched to a different driver. https://github.com/daniilidis-group/cam_sync Try this. I work in this group and if you have any issues hit me up .

hi, I tried to use cam_sync because I had the same problem with spinnaker_sdk.

with cam_sync, I am getting an error: ERROR: cannot launch node of type [cam_sync/cam_sync_node]: can't locate node [cam_sync_node] in package [cam_sync]

when trying rosrun cam_sync cam_sync_node:

[rosrun] Couldn't find executable named cam_sync_node below /home/dflap3/cam_sync

I already added permissions for the whole directory, but nothing changed.

I'm fairly new to ROS as this is my first project - do you have any advice regarding this problem?

Thanks & regards
