SoftAct Activating the soft servo<br />

Example<br />

Arguments<br />

SoftAct (Soft Servo Activate) is used to activate the so called ”soft” servo on any of the<br />

robot axes.<br />

SoftAct 3, 20;<br />

Activation of soft servo on axis 3, with softness value 20%.<br />

SoftAct 1, 90 \Ramp:=150;<br />

Activation of the soft servo on axis 1, with softness value 90% and ramp<br />

factor 150%.<br />

SoftAct Axis Softness [\Ramp ]<br />

Axis Data type: num<br />

Number of current axis on the robot (1 - 6).<br />

Softness Data type: num<br />

Softness value in percent (0 - 100%). 0% denotes min. softness (max. stiffness),<br />

and 100% denotes max. softness.<br />

Ramp Data type: num<br />

Program execution<br />

Ramp factor in percent (>= 100%). The ramp factor is used to control the<br />

engagement of the soft servo. A factor 100% denotes the normal value; with<br />

greater values the soft servo is engaged more slowly (longer ramp). The default<br />

value for ramp factor is 100 %.<br />

Softness is activated at the value specified for the current axis. The softness value is<br />

valid for all movements, until a new softness value is programmed for the current axis,<br />

or until the soft servo is deactivated by an instruction.<br />
