default values
By default, the gripper closed and open states are those detected during the homing of the gripper, i.e.,
d
closed
= 0 and
d
open
≤ 6, in the case of the MEGP 25E gripper, or
d
open
≤ 48, in the case of the MEGP 25LS
gripper. To go back to these default values, use
SetGripperRange
(0,0).
2.1.24 SetGripperVel
(
p
)
This command limits the velocity of the gripper fingers (with respect to the gripper).
Arguments
•
p
: percentage of maximum finger velocity (~100 mm/s), ranging from 5% to 100%.
default values
By default, the finger velocity limit is 50%.
2.1.25 SetJointAcc
(
p
)
This command limits the acceleration of the joints during movements resulting from joint- space
commands (see
). Note that this command makes the robot stop, even if blending is enabled.
Arguments
•
p
: percentage of maximum acceleration of the joints, ranging from 0.001% to 150%.
default values
The default joint acceleration limit is 100%.
Note that the argument of this command is exceptionally limited to 150. This is because in firmware 8,
a scaling was applied so that if this argument is kept at 100, most joint- space movements are feasible
even at full payload. More precisely, if you are upgrading from firmware 7 and you want to keep the
same joint accelerations, you need to multiply the arguments of your
SetJointAcc
commands by the
factor 1.43.
2.1.26 SetJointVel
(
p
)
This command limits the angular velocities of the robot joints. It affects the movements generated by
the
MovePose
and
MoveJoints
commands.
Arguments
•
p
: percentage of maximum joint velocities, ranging from 0.001% to 100%.
default values
By default, the limit is set to 25%.
It is not possible to limit the velocity of only one joint. With this command, the maximum velocities of all
joints are limited proportionally. The maximum velocity of each joint will be reduced to a percentage
p
of
its top velocity. The top velocity of joints 1 and 2 is 150°/s, of joint 3 is 180°/s, of joints 4 and 5 is 300°/s,
and of joint 6 is 500°/s.
