Yes, that is correct. Genserkins does calcs for 6 joints. If the actual robot has fewer, then dummy joints need to be defined to make up 6 joints for genserkins. If You need some extra joint, then it has to be added separately. What I understand from genserkins, it is coded for 6 joints, so the 7th joint has to be added in genserkins code and that is why I feel it not to be easy task. You did not answer, how You want to operate the gripper (just open/close or control, how much and how fast does it grab), so it is hard to tell, if that can be done in HAL. Sorry, I cannot help with genserkins, because I myself need help with the genserkins :)) Viesturs ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more.
