This may include: -* Nodes terminates abnormally -* Nodes freezes without crashing and stops publishing message or causes drop in publish rate of message. -* Nodes functioning beyond it's designed state (e.g., losing its localization pose, large deviation from planned trajectory, etc) + +- Nodes terminates abnormally +- Nodes freezes without crashing and stops publishing message or causes drop in publish rate of message. +- Nodes functioning beyond it's designed state (e.g., losing its localization pose, large deviation from planned trajectory, etc) In order to detect such failure and trigger minimum risk manuever, we have system monitoring module. This page explains how users can configure `system_error_monitor` for Autoware for their use case. - ## Architecture - ## Configuring Parameters ### Adding new topic monitoring ### Turning on Emergency Handler function + By default, Contorl module will ignore any emergency control sent from System Monitor Module. This is because it is not always safe to make a sudden stop at node failure, and we would like the user to be aware of the function when it is turned on. In order to turn on its function, modify the following launch file as shown below: -https://github.com/autowarefoundation/autoware_launch/blob/515239b9f1d9c4161629f25c1b8e4c6ec62acfdd/autoware_launch/launch/autoware.launch.xml#L117 + Add new argument `use_emergency_handling` to control.launch.py. + ```
