# Summary

Script function for obtaining robot specific DH parameters

# What is it?

I have to interface to many different robots, each having it’s own set of DH calibration parameter offsets. I now have to go into each robot and extract the info from a file. It would be nice if I could extract the info trough a script function, so I can send it via TCP/IP to my host PC system

# Why is it needed?

It allows for an automated installation and maintenence of external software without user intervention. Otherwise the user needs to be an expert in handling robot internal software which is a) unwanted b) dangerous c) error prone
