XML-RPC Math URCap
Sample

An example of a URCap that only includes an Installation Node and a small Python Daemon.

The included math functionality is: string concentration, string indexation, addition and subtraction of numbers.

Keywords:
XML-RPC, strings, concentration, InstallationNode, DaemonService, Python, Daemon

Whip welding URCap
Sample, work in progress

This URCap uses a Feature Plane to create a weaving path for welding.
An example of a URCap that shows an image and a dropdown menu with Plane Features from installation.
Use to work with images, select method and dropdowns and how to read information from the Installation in a ProgramNode and vice versa.

Keywords:
image, select, dropdown, Features, Plane Feature

getRobotData Real Time Client reader URCap

This URCap implements a new custom class, getRobotRealtimeData.class, that connects to the Real Time Client interface, and reads the message.
The data from the Real Time Client is broken into the information it represents, and implements get-methods to read actual TCP pose, actual joint positions, joint temperatures, joint operation modes and the safety limited speed scaling percentage. You can add your own get-methods as well.

Hence, this class demonstrates how to read information about the robot state (position, running mode, etc.) and use this within another section of the URCap.

A sample placeholder Installation node is implemented, to show how to import the getRobotRealtimeData class into another class. The Installation node uses EventQueue.invokeLater to update the values from the getRobotRealtimeData dynamically.

Keywords:
socket, importing class, get actual TCP, client interfaces, live update

Script Wapper URCap

This URCap wraps the contents of a selected script file into a program node in PolyScope.
The user can select which script file to wrap, and select a decent image to show instead.

User must place a script file (.script) and optionally image (.jpg, .jpeg, .png .bmp) in the /programs/ folder on a real robot, or /home/ur/ursim-current/programs/ in a URSim. The URCap checks the robots serial number, to decide what folder to look in.

The sample demonstrates how to wrap pre-written URScript into a URCap. How to read the serial number and find files on the file system. It also implements images and dropdowns.

Note:
It is suggested, that product that generate URScript code into a file, e.g. CAD/CAM software uses an approach like this, to wrap different modules of the script code into self-explanatory functional blocks for easier readability.

Keywords:
appendRaw, script file, image, select, dropdown, manage files, read script

Requires SDK 1.1+
