Problem with LCM server #20
Comments

Hi,
You need to kill the gzserver process cuz sometimes gazebo doesn’t kill the
process itself when exiting the simulator.
Best,

Hello ! I have an a1 robot and have successfully setup my workspace. But
form times to times, I get the following error when I run the robot in high
level mode for example (*roslaunch mbs_unitree_ros high_level_mode.launch*)
:
[node_lcm_server-2] process has died [pid 6969, exit code 255, cmd
/home/amin/catkin_ws/devel/lib/unitree_legged_real/lcm_server_3_2 a1
highlevel __name:=node_lcm_server
__log:=/root/.ros/log/37556312-1b72-11ec-a5c3-000c296e3085/node_lcm_server-2.log].
log file:
/root/.ros/log/37556312-1b72-11ec-a5c3-000c296e3085/node_lcm_server-2*.log
It occurs very randomly but often enough to become a problem. It usually
works for a few minutes if I'm lucky and then I get the error, it doesn't
occur right after I run the command. And I've tried to check the log file (
*/root/.ros/log/37556312-1b72-11ec-a5c3-000c296e3085/node_lcm_server-2*.log*)
but it doesn't exist though the folder does (and contains other log files).
Any idea on how to solve it ?
PS : Here's the whole return message that I get.

Thank you for this answer ! However, I'm not running gazebo, I'm using the real life robot so naturally i can't find a gzserver process to kill :') Is there another process that I should kill that'd be related to the use of the real robot ? |

Oh, I see, sorry I didn’t answer your question. This is the LCM timeout
error. It’s related to the lcm server when sending and receiving messages.
Are you running a real-time Ubuntu system? When you run code with robot, I
would suggest you using the sdk instead of ROS because ROS is not running
in real time and may cause the LCM timeout error. If you patch your OS with
the RT kernel, it should solve the issue but still, you may run into this
error some times.
Best,
Yiyu

Thanks for your quick reply ! I'm running Ubuntu on a virtual machine on a MacBook 😅 Best, |

Yes, the SDK is already installed on my workspace and I can start the lcm server but to communicate with the robot I still have to use ROS, no ? I didn't find instructions related to that there |
|
Check this repo, https://github.com/unitreerobotics/unitree_legged_sdk although the Aliengo robot uses version 3_2, but the build instruction is the same. You can run the example files by sudo ./example_ |

Okay thanks, it works now ! And last question I have : I've seen videos of the A1 dancing or doing backflips, is there an existing code that I could get or should I write the code myself ? And also is it possible to implement a few of my programs directly on the remote controller ? For instance I have a python code that makes the robot make a U-turn, could I put in on the remote so that just by pressing a button it would execute the program ? I haven't found anything about that on the Internet Best, |

There is no existing code for the dancing/backflips in the repo, but you can always develop it with the low level control mode. For dancing, it's some development in the controller, and for backflip, you would need trajectory optimization. There is one header file in the SDK (joystick.h) that translates the remote control command so you can program your custom key bindings for your case |
