Installing the Robot OS

Note

Most users will not require this step as robots from Clearpath Robotics will ship with the Robot OS installed and configured. Only users that are upgrading an OS or restoring a robot to factory settings will need to perform these steps so that their robot is compatible with IndoorNav.

Note

IndoorNav is only supported on robots running ROS Noetic on Ubuntu 20.04.

Follow the instructions in your robot’s user manual to reinstall the default OS. The links below contain the instructions for reinstalling Ubuntu 20.04 and ROS Noetic on all robots that support IndoorNav:
