Hello Everyone,

I am new to ROS, I would like to ask for help with my problem:

I am using Teensy 3.6, I always have problem with communication, I fixed some and last week It was working normally. This week I start to receive this error when I run my Teensy as ROS node

Hi,
I also got the same error, in my case it was the simple mistake of reading from a wrong serial port. I had two usb serial connections for two sensors and their hardware device formation on ubuntu tty/ACM* got interchanged. Just changing the devices worked for me.
