Blocks introduced

clear alarms dobotconnection Clears all the active alarms on the machine close connection dobotconnection closes the active connection with the machine, freeing up the occupied connection. core version value Returns the current RUAL Core version disable dobotconnection Disables the machine enable dobotconnection Enables the machine enable dh gripper dobotconnection Enables the end tool to be compatible with the DH Robotics Grippers get coordinate systems dobotconnection grabs the current coordinate systems from the machine get coordinates dobotconnection grabs the current joints cartesian coordinates of the machine. When you're using a 4 joint machine, the last 2 joints will be ignored. get serial dobotconnection grabs the current serial of the machine. get speed dobotconnection grabs the current speed of the machine. get status dobotconnection grabs the current status of the machine. local devices dobotconnection Retrieves the local devices and their connection information move to safe point dobotconnection Moves the machine to the preconfigured safe home position at the current speed open connection dobotconnection Opens a new dobot connection, make sure to close it. A machine only allows a single active automation. set coordinates dobotconnection Moves the machine into the given coords using joint motion. When you're using a 4 joint machine, the last 2 joints will be ignored. set relative movement dobotconnection Moves the machines joint motion relative to the current coords. When you're using a 4 joint machine, the last 2 joints will be ignored. set speed dobotconnection Updates the speed in percentage of your machine, some machines allow values in excess of 100% set width dobotconnection Updates the width of the DH Robotics gripper start drag dobotconnection enables drag mode on the robot arm, allowing you to move it by hand and recording or savings positions stop drag dobotconnection disables drag mode on the robot arm update jog dobotconnection Moves the machine in the given direction relative to the current position. When you're using a 4 joint machine, the last 2 joints will be ignored. JOG is updated in teaching mode, at slower speeds thus.
