3-Finger Adaptive Robot Gripper Instruction Manual
l
0x0 - Gripper reset.
l
0x1 - Gripper activation.
gMOD
: Operation Mode status, echo of the rMOD bits (grasping mode requested).
l
0x00 - Basic mode.
l
0x01 - Pinch mode.
l
0x02 - Wide mode.
l
0x03 - Scissor mode.
gGTO
: Action status, echo of the rGTO bit (go to bit).
l
0x0 - Stopped (or performing activation / grasping mode change / automatic release).
l
0x1 - Go to Position Request.
gIMC
: Gripper status, returns the current status of the Gripper.
l
0x00 - Gripper is in reset (or automatic release) state. See Fault status if Gripper is activated.
l
0x01 - Activation is in progress.
l
0x02 - Mode change is in progress.
l
0x03 - Activation and Mode change are complete.
gSTA
: Motion status, returns the current motion of the Gripper fingers.
l
0x00 - Gripper is in motion towards requested position (only meaningful if gGTO = 1).
l
0x01 - Gripper is stopped. One or two fingers stopped before requested position.
l
0x02 - Gripper is stopped. All fingers stopped before requested position.
l
0x03 - Gripper is stopped. All fingers reached requested position.
Hint
Monitoring Motion status and Object status (in byte 1) are very useful for object pick-up routines.

Hint
Object status byte provides you with a built-in object detection feature that can replace very complex algorithms.
gDTA
l
0x00 - Finger A is in motion (only meaningful if gGTO = 1).
l
0x01 - Finger A has stopped due to a contact while opening.
l
0x02 - Finger A has stopped due to a contact while closing.
l
0x03 - Finger A is at the requested position.
gDTB
: Finger B object detection status returns information on possible object contact from Finger B.
l
0x00 - Finger B is in motion (only meaningful if gGTO = 1).
l
0x01 - Finger B has stopped due to a contact while opening.
l
0x02 - Finger B has stopped due to a contact while closing.
l
0x03 - Finger B is at the requested position.
gDTC
: Finger C object detection status returns information on possible object contact from Finger C.
l
0x00 - Finger C is in motion (only meaningful if gGTO = 1).
l
0x01 - Finger C has stopped due to a contact while opening.
l
0x02 - Finger C has stopped due to a contact while closing.
l
0x03 - Finger C is at the requested position.
gDTS
: Scissor object detection status returns information on possible object contact from scissor maneuver.
l
0x00 - Scissor is in motion (only meaningful if gGTO = 1).
l
0x01 - Scissor has stopped due to a contact while opening.
l
0x02 - Scissor has stopped due to a contact while closing.
l
0x03 - Scissor is at the requested position.
