Troubleshooting

Warning

The AI Accelerator requires ROS 2 Humble, so PolyScope X 10.12.1 is the latest compatible release. PolyScope X 10.13 and later use ROS 2 Jazzy and are not currently supported.

Pick the issue that matches what you see, then open that page. Paths below assume a 2.x compute module: host ~/aia_sdk/ros/, container /workspaces/isaac_ros-dev/.

Complete SDK setup first when the problem is related to first-time install.
