Launching an Automation Task

Finally, the system is ready to start the first automation task. In another terminal window, launch NAV2 Localisation in Simulation

cd lgdx_ws
. install/setup.bash
ros2 launch lgdxrobot2_bringup sim_nav.launch.py profile:='sim-loc'

Create A Task

Navigate to Automation -> Tasks and press Create Task.

Select your newly created flow. Then, select waypoint A and press Add Waypoint. Next, select waypoint B. Press Create.

  • Priority indicates the importance of the task; a higher value means higher priority.
  • Assign Robot allows you to specify which robot will run the task.
  • Create as Template Task enables you to save the task as a template for quicker creation in the future.
  • You can specify custom X, Y, or Rotation values to override the predefined waypoint coordinates.

View The Task

You will be redirected to the task list page, which may appear empty initially. Select Running at the top right to filter active tasks.

Navigate to Map to see the real-time progress of the task.
