Internal Error: ComputeManualRrsConfigString: Wrong motionparameters.e file, number of joints with turns is 2, should be 3.



Solution

In the error message it says:


The number of joints with turns is 2. It should be 3.


Turns are defined by the keyword ‘default_turns’. 


In the motionparameter.e file you will see: 


default_turns j4 0 -180, j6 0 -180;


As in J4 & J6 are defined. I.E. TWO joints. We need 1 more joint defined.


Looking at all default_turns for M710’s on the ftp site:


m710i_rj.cojt/motionparameters.e:default_turns j1 0 -180.0, j4 0 -180.0, j6 0 -180.0; 
m710ib70.cojt/motionparameters.e:default_turns j1 0 -180.0, j4 0 -180.0, j6 0 -180.0; 
m710ib_70.cojt/motionparameters.e:default_turns j1 0 -180, j4 0 -180, j6 0 -180; 
m710ib_70_x.cojt/motionparameters.e:default_turns j1 0 -180, j4 0 -180, j6 0 -180; 
m710ic_20l.cojt/motionparameters.e:default_turns j4 0 -180, j6 0 -180; 
m710ic_50.cojt/motionparameters.e:default_turns j4 0 -180, j6 0 -180; 
m710ic_50s.cojt/motionparameters.e:default_turns j4 0 -180, j6 0 -180; 
m710ic_70.cojt/motionparameters.e:default_turns j4 0 -180, j6 0 -180; 
m710iw.cojt/motionparameters.e:default_turns j4 0 -180, j6 0 -180;


We see that some have J1 also. And J4/J6 are the same for all.


To eliminate the message and use a value that is correct, change the line to:


default_turns j1 0 -180.0, j4 0 -180, j6 0 -180;


Since the motionparameters.e also has:


joint_is_turn j4 turn; 
joint_is_turn j6 turn;


I would also add:


joint_is_turn j1 turn;
