Status

Experimental

EXPERIMENTAL: This status indicates that this software is experimental code at best. There are known issues and missing functionality. The APIs are completely unstable and likely to change. Use in production systems is not recommended. All code starts at this level. For more information see the ROS-Industrial software status page.

Developmental

DEVELOPMENTAL: This status indicates that this software is not yet production ready code. The software has some level of unit-testing. There are known issues and missing functionality. The APIs are unstable but unlikely to change drastically. Use in production systems will likely require modifications including improvements and/or bug fixes. For more information see the ROS-Industrial software status page.

Production Ready

PRODUCTION: This status indicates that this software is production ready code. It meets qualitative criteria for being used in production systems. There are few or no known issues, and none are critical. The APIs are stable and unlikely to change. The software has a comprehensive test suite, documentation, and has been used on production level code in the past. The code has undergone a limited level of review to obtain this status. For more information see the ROS-Industrial software status page.

Overview

This stack is part of the ROS-Industrial program. It currently contains packages that provide nodes for communication with Motoman industrial robot controllers (DX100, FS100, DX200, and YRC1000), URDF models for various robot arms and associated MoveIt configuration packages.

Please see the motoman_driver page for more information.

See the motoman_experimental metapackage for additional packages, such as robot support packages and MoveIt configuration packages.

Installation

The packages in the main repository have been released into ROS Indigo on Ubuntu, making installation through apt-get or synaptic possible. Other Linux distributions will have to build from source.

To install all released Indigo packages, run the following on the command line:

sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-motoman

This installs all the dependencies as well. The controller must be installed/configured to work with ROS-Industrial as well. The relevant software can be found in the motoman_driver package. Installation instructions for the controller can be found in this tutorial.

Tutorials

See the Tutorials page for an overview of the available tutorials.

Troubleshooting

See the troubleshooting page for details on alarms and errors when using the MotoROS driver.
