Facing difficulty while integrating opentcs-commadapter-vda5050 with opentcs version 5.17.0

[manjushreearadhya2016]

Hi Team,

We are trying to integrate opentcs-commadapter-vda5050 with OpenTCS version 5.17.0. We have performed the following steps:

1. Added opentcs-commadapter-vda5050 implementation in the main build.gradle.
2. Added opentcs-commadapter-vda5050 implementation in OpenTCS-Kernel's build.gradle.
3. Added opentcs-commadapter-vda5050 implementation in OpenTCS-KernelControlCenter's build.gradle.
4. Added opentcs-commadapter-vda5050 implementation in OpenTCS-ModelEditor's build.gradle.

The build was successful, but we encountered the following error while running the kernel:

An exception was caught and reported. Message: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: org.opentcs.customizations.kernel.ActiveInAllModes is not a binding annotation. Please annotate it with @BindingAnnotation.

Please guide us on resolving these issues and completing the integration of opentcs-commadapter-vda5050.

Thank you.

I'm not able to reproduce this issue with openTCS 5.17 and opentcs-commadapter-vda5050 0.19.0. I guess this is related to some missing or wrong configuration in your project.

Generally, for setting up an openTCS integration project it is recommended to use the openTCS integration project example. Please refer to the Recommended usage section in the project's README. Although this project is currently based on openTCS 5.13 and opentcs-commadapter-vda5050 0.11.0, you can update both versions simply by adjusting the verions in the projects https://github.com/openTCS/opentcs-integration-example/blob/4eaa2944d41dce107bff20762b19e4f2203dac14/gradle/dependency-versions.gradle.

Do you get the same error when setting up a project using the openTCS integration project example?

[manjushreearadhya2016]

Thanks for your response, @martingr . I have not tried using the openTCS integration project example yet. Let me try it and get back to you on this.

[manjushreearadhya2016]

Hi @martingr I have tried with openTCS integration project example when running kernel It is showing that vda5050 enabled but I did not got how can i add vda 5050 option in ModelEditor,KernelControlCenter and OperationDesk UI so that i can switch and use that.I have tried by specifying it in Demo-01.xml but still i did not got the option to change .Can you please explain me how we can add it to the ui to test flow by enabling it in kernelControl center?

[martingr]

Did you configure the vehilce elements properly? The vehicles in the demo model that is included in the openTCS integration project example are not configured for the VDA5050 driver out of the box. See VDA5050 1.1 driver configuration or VDA5050 2.0 driver configuration (depending on the VDA5050/driver version you want to use) for information on the properties that are required to be set on vehicle elements in the plant model.

Hello @martingr and @swltr , I tried the openTCS_Integration_Example based on openTCS 5.13 and opentcs-commadapter-vda5050 0.11.0. After Successful project build, when I tried to run the Kernel, It shows, that VDA5050 1.1 communication adapter enabled. and VDA5050 2.0 communication adapter enabled. in the Terminal. After all three services(Model Editor, Operation Desk, Kernel Control Center) turn up. The VDA5050 Adapter option is not available in the Model Editor, Operation Desk, Kernel Control Center UI. It is showing only LoopBack Adapter in the openTCS UI. Can you please guide me, like how can I add the VDA adapter as well in the openTCS application.

[martingr]

Please see my reply above.

[Gosling1702]

[martingr]

Please refer to my reply here. You have to at least set the required properties on the vehicle element in the plant model (depending on the VDA5050/driver version you want to use and according to the respective driver configuration documentation). In the excerpt from your model file the vehicle is missing the required properties.

[Gosling1702]

Hi @martingr, I have gone through the configuration file, but I did not find in which file I should add these properties. It would be helpful if you could provide the path to it. In opentcs-master with the loopback adapter, I can see the vehicle element with properties in the PlantModelManager, such as name, length, etc. How can I add this in the opentcs-integration-example for vda5050 adapter?

[martingr]

You have to set these properties on the vehicle element(s) in the openTCS plant model. Setting properties on vehicle elements (or any model element in general) can be done by selecting the respective element in the Model Editor application and editing its "Miscellaneous" attribute (see the screenshot below). In the "Edit key-value pairs" dialog you have to add the properties required for the VDA5050 driver.

[martingr]

Again, please refer to my reply here. The vehicle element in your screenshot does not contain the correct (and required) properties. (These are described in the documentation I mentioned in my reply.)

I also struggled with this. The driver configuration doc, you mentioned says:

The driver reads configuration data from properties of the vehicle element in the plant model. It reads the properties with the following keys:

This text wasn't clear to me. From your screenshot, I deduced, that one has to do the following:

• In the model editor program
• click on the vehicle that should be using vda 5050 adapter
• in it's properties tab, click into the miscallenous field
• manually (?) add all the the keys listed here

Hope it helps
