Detailed Description

The actarray proxy provides an interface to actuator arrays such as the ActivMedia Pioneer Arm.

See the Player User Manual for a complete description of the drivers that support this interface.


Function Documentation

PLAYERC_EXPORT int playerc_actarray_brakes ( playerc_actarray_t device,
uint8_t  enable 
)

Turn the brakes of all actuators in the array that have them on or off.

PLAYERC_EXPORT playerc_actarray_t* playerc_actarray_create ( playerc_client_t client,
int  index 
)

Create an actarray proxy.

PLAYERC_EXPORT int playerc_actarray_current_cmd ( playerc_actarray_t device,
int  joint,
float  current 
)

Command a joint in the array to move with a specified current.

PLAYERC_EXPORT void playerc_actarray_destroy ( playerc_actarray_t device)

Destroy an actarray proxy.

PLAYERC_EXPORT int playerc_actarray_get_geom ( playerc_actarray_t device)

Get the actarray geometry.

The writes the result into the proxy rather than returning it to the caller.

PLAYERC_EXPORT int playerc_actarray_home_cmd ( playerc_actarray_t device,
int  joint 
)

Command a joint (or, if joint is -1, the whole array) to go to its home position.

PLAYERC_EXPORT int playerc_actarray_multi_current_cmd ( playerc_actarray_t device,
float *  currents,
int  currents_count 
)

Command all joints in the array to move with specified currents.

PLAYERC_EXPORT int playerc_actarray_multi_position_cmd ( playerc_actarray_t device,
float *  positions,
int  positions_count 
)

Command all joints in the array to move to specified positions.

PLAYERC_EXPORT int playerc_actarray_multi_speed_cmd ( playerc_actarray_t device,
float *  speeds,
int  speeds_count 
)

Command a joint in the array to move at a specified speed.

PLAYERC_EXPORT int playerc_actarray_position_cmd ( playerc_actarray_t device,
int  joint,
float  position 
)

Command a joint in the array to move to a specified position.

PLAYERC_EXPORT int playerc_actarray_power ( playerc_actarray_t device,
uint8_t  enable 
)

Turn the power to the array on or off.

Be careful when turning power on that the array is not obstructed from its home position in case it moves to it (common behaviour).

PLAYERC_EXPORT int playerc_actarray_speed_cmd ( playerc_actarray_t device,
int  joint,
float  speed 
)

Command a joint in the array to move at a specified speed.

PLAYERC_EXPORT int playerc_actarray_speed_config ( playerc_actarray_t device,
int  joint,
float  speed 
)

Set the speed of a joint (-1 for all joints) for all subsequent movement commands.

PLAYERC_EXPORT int playerc_actarray_subscribe ( playerc_actarray_t device,
int  access 
)

Subscribe to the actarray device.

PLAYERC_EXPORT int playerc_actarray_unsubscribe ( playerc_actarray_t device)

Un-subscribe from the actarray device.
