Error messages overview
If a program is running without the Gripper being activated, the program will stop at the execution of a Gripper node and the following
message will be displayed in a pop-up. Tap Stop Program and activate the gripper with the toolbar to continue or add an activation
command in the program (please refer to the Advanced Gripper Functions Software section of the Hand-E Instruction Manual).
Caution
Starting from Gripper URCap version 1.0.2, the Gripper activation command (rq_activate() or rq_activate_and_wait()) must be
preceded by the reset command (rq_reset()). This will force the gripper's activation routine. Thus, if the gripper was already
activated, it will activate again.
Gripper Program Template
With the URCap package installation, a program template will automatically be installed in the program folder of PolyScope. It contains
comments and pop up windows that explain Gripper nodes and advanced functions.
Load and open the gripper_tutorial.urp program located in the root program folder. Make sure the Gripper is well connected to the UR
controller. Run the program. You will see pop up windows with comments on the Gripper nodes and advanced functions.
Tip
Use the gripper_tutorial.urp to learn how to program the Gripper using nodes and advanced functions. You can copy the
tutorial and start a new program based on it.
