Fastrak

[ola_nag]

Hello,
I'm trying to connect Fastrak and I can not understand why I got this message:

polhemus = viz.add('polhemus.dle')
fastrak = polhemus.addFastrak(port=1,bandRate=115200)

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 2, in <module>
AttributeError: 'VizExtension' object has no attribute 'addFastrak'

The connection is passing via parralel port (not a usb port), and I don't believe that attribute addFastrak is not included into the standard library polhemus.dle.

Can smbd help me?

Try reinstalling Vizard and let us know if that helps.

No. The reinstallation didn't help. I still get the same error.
Besides I've tried to launch Fastrak with Vizard on the second computer and I still have the same error.

If it is useful, I'm trying Vizard 4 (evaluation version 32) on windows XP and windows 7.

Do you have some other suggestions?

In the code you posted it shows bandrate where it should be baudrate. Try running the following code:

import viz
viz.go()

polhemus = viz.add('polhemus.dle')
fastrak = polhemus.addFastrak()

Also make sure that PiMgr is not running when you run Vizard.

I've tried your code. I've checked that PiMgr is not running. But I still get the same error

Can you please post the entire output generated when running the above script? It sounds like the polhemus plugin is not even loading, which should output an error message.

I have found where the problem was.
I have tried the script in the command line (interactive mode). Launching the script with the script file works fine.

Thank you very much!
