George,

First, you should get the Player level working with your configuration.
You can do that using the Player/Stage/Gazebo tools. It would look
something like this:

In one console:

% player /name/of/config.cfg

If this is working correctly, you should (I think) hear the sonars come
on. Once that is working, then you can in another console:

% playerv

You might need some arguments here (port, devices, etc) You should then
be able to connect onto the robot, see data, and control it.

Once that works, then you can use the same cfg file from inside Pyro and
should work from there.

Sorry I can't tell you more about your setup. Maybe someone else on the
list has experience with such a configuration. You can also ask on the
playerstage-users list. They are quite helpful.

If there is more information I can give, please let me know.

Hi List,

I am attempting to get Pyro to connect to a Pioneer 3-DX over a
Lantronix WiBox serial to ethernet connector. I have the wibox configured on my wireless network, and can telnet to the wibox from my Pyro machine. I can connect to the port the wibox offers. I do not have a computer locally onboard the pioneer; I want to use a linux desktop machine for that.

I don't know what to do next to get Pyro talking to the Pioneer over
that hostname/port.  I load up pyrobot, load up the Server
"PlayerServer" and the "pioneer.cfg", and click "robot". I made a new robot file, copied from Player6665.py, and changed the return values of the PlayerRobot() call to the correct hostname and port number for my wibox.

When the Robot file loads, I get this repeating in the console window:
calling connect
done
playerc error   : poll call failed with error [0:Success]
playerc error   : incomplete initialization string
calling connect
done
playerc error   : poll call failed with error [0:Success]
playerc error   : incomplete initialization string

What initialization string do I need to set, or where can I go to find
more pioneer + pyro information?

Thanks,
