After a long hiatus, I've started working on my scara robot again. After dusting off the configuration, updating software and futzing about a bit, I got the robot moving like it was when I left off a year ago.
I can home the joints, switch into world mode and jog around a bit in cartesian space! Not everything is working perfectly yet but I'm not sure what my expectations should be. For example, in the attached screenshot (from the default scara configuration) there seems to be no correlation between the machine limits and the actual region that the effector can reach. So it appears to be perfectly possible to jog the machine into places it can't go, even crashing into itself. The 'work table' in the scaragui simulation appears to be the largest rectangular space that any point can be reached from any other point in a straight line with the arm. Is this correct? Shouldn't that correspond to the machine limits? https://i.imgur.com/uPifeKY.png -- website: http://www.machinekit.io blog: http://blog.machinekit.io github: https://github.com/machinekit --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Machinekit" group.
