Joint List (Device)

On the Device tab, the Joint list displays the position of each joint on a robot. The joint list is fully synchronized with the Scheduler simulation. It is useful for viewing device joint values at any point in a program.

Open

All joints on the device are listed, with current position and ± motion range indicated for each joint.

Rotary axis values are in degrees, rail axis values are in millimeters.

Controls

Use the sliders to visualize different joint positions in the viewport.

Open

You can also enter a value directly in the box.

Changing values in the Joint list helps you see hypothetical joint positions on a robot in the viewport. It does not change device positioning in the actual program.

The Joint list is also used for other operations in Robotmaster, including:

• Setting Home position.

• Troubleshooting solutions for error conditions such as overtravel.

Multi-robot

For multi-robot cells, in the Joint list, each robot is listed in its own section, with current position and motion limits shown for each joint.

These can be manipulated the same way you would for a single-robot cell.

You can use the Expand/Collapse control to minimize a robot in the Joint list.
