Improvements
Updates to Standard Interface Communication
-
201 command optimization: When the robot pose type is set to 0, the start point of planned path is changed from the zero point (0,0,0,0,0,0) to the home point set in Mech-Viz.
-
601 command optimization: The message can now be cached in the vision system for 3 seconds, up from the previous 1 second.
-
URCap plugin upgrade: Supports receiving the joint positions returned by Mech-Viz to ensure the actual motion trajectory of the robot matches the simulation trajectory.
-
Get_Data command added to JAKA robots: Supports obtaining the poses, labels, and tool IDs of vision points or waypoints.
-
The following commands have been optimized for TM (TMflow2) robots:
-
MM init command: Supports specifying sockets.
-
Receive Viz command: Supports receiving joint positions returned by Mech-Viz.
-
-
YASKAWA calibration optimization: If linear motion is selected during calibration, joint positions can be used.
-
ABB, FANUC, KUKA, and YASKAWA program optimization: The maximum number of total poses retrieved from the vision system has been increased from 50 to 100.
