Schedule for ERL_SR major tournament

 Lisbon, 28 to 31 August 2017

Network:

The network ROAH24 is to be used only for connecting to the Referee box (needed for tasks TBM1, FBM1, FBM2). No Internet is available on this network.

Refbox IP: 10.0.0.1

Broadcast address: 255.255.255.0

Each team must only use the following assigned static IPs:

Socrob: 10.0.0.20 to 10.0.0.29

Hearts: 10.0.0.40 to 10.0.0.49

Homer: 10.0.0.60 to 10.0.069

Machinilog: 10.0.080 to 10.0.0.89

BARC 10.0.0.100 to 10.0.0.110

FBM2 Clarification:

A slightly different  procedure to what is mentioned in the rulebook will be applied in FBM2. (Please check  HERE for details). To summarize, the refbox will issue the waypoints one by one instead of the full list. It will keep sending new points and will issue a stop signal when the robot has reached the end of the FBM. The refbox will continuously send the current waypoint to the robot. When the robot reports to have reached the point, it MUST STOP COMPLETELY and inform the RefBox (by calling the end_execute service) it has reached the point. The score is computed and the refbox will then start transmitting the next waypoint.

If the robot does not report that it has arrived to the waypoint within the segment_timeout, the roah_rsbb/benchmarkstate will change to BenchmarkState.PREPARE. Teams must interpret this change as a segment_timeout, STOP COMPLETELY the robot and call an end_prepare. The score will be computed and the refbox will send a new goal.

Be carefull because teams HAVE TO TOTALLY STOP the robot in the mentioned situations. Failing to do so will make it impossible to compute the score. Failing to comply with this rule will cause the team to be disqualified.
