Special blocks in EEROS take care of sending signals to and receiving signals from ROS. These signals must be packed into ROS messages. Each topic transmits messages of a certain type. Depending on the message type you have to use certain blocks in your control system, see [[eeros_architecture: | Special blocks in EEROS take care of sending signals to and receiving signals from ROS.
