alter_motion()

Definition

alter_motion(pos)

Features

This function applies altering amount of motion trajectory when the alter function is activated. The meaning of the input values is defined in the description of enable_alter_motion().

Caution

  • alter_motion() can be executed only in user thread.

  • alter_motion() sets the orientation type of posx to DR_FIX_XYZ if it is None.

Note

  • alter_motion() can be executed only in user thread.

  • Alter motion can be adjusted through setting value limit_dPOS or limit_dPOS_per in enable_alter_motion function.

  • Starting from SW version V3.4, alter_motion() supports various orientation types when pos is entered as posx(). If pos is entered in the format of list(float[6]), it operates as Fixed XYZ.

Example

Python
def alter_thread():
    global dir_a, wait_time
    alter_motion(dX) #dX : amount of alter motion

    if dX[0] > 9.9:
        dir_a = -10
    elif dX[0] < -9.9:
        dir_a = 10

    dX[0] = dX[0] + dir_a
    dX[3] = dX[3] + dir_a

    wait(wait_time)

dX = [10,0,0,10,0,0]

# Starting from V3.4, various orientation types are supported depending on the ori_type setting in posx():
# dX = posx([10, 0, 0, 0, 0, 10], ori_type=DR_ELR_ZYZ, sol=None, turn=None)

J00 = posj(30,45,45,0,90,0)
movej(J00,vel=100,acc=100)

X1,sol = get_current_posx(DR_BASE)

J01 = posj(-30,45, 45,0,90,0)
movej(J01,vel=100,acc=100)

X2,sol = get_current_posx(DR_BASE)

# Alter motion is executed during the cycle time 
cycle_time = 0.6 

n_period = int(cycle_time * 1000 / 50)
wait_time = cycle_time

# cycle time:(n_period * 10)msec, mode:accumulate, reference coordination:base coordination
# Lmitation of accumulation amount :50mm, 90deg
# Limitation of increment amount :60mm, 60deg
# Limit Alarm can occur if the cycle time is too short compare to the amount of alter motion
