Testing and working with socket connections to the UR

What is Provided:

For Python Import:

ur_cb2   Provides high level access to basic UR Robot interfacing
  receive Provides low level access to allow receiving data from a UR CB2
  send Provides low level access to allow sending data to a UR CB2

For Command Line Usage:

View live status of robot: >>>cb2-listen

Save points from robot for future use: >>>cb2-record

Play back previously recorded points: >>>cb2-play

Examples:

cb2_robot_example.py:An example script which will move a robot around. You should be careful about running this before ensuring that it will not lead to a crash
send/cb2_send_example.py:An example script which will send movement commands to the robot. You should be careful about running this before ensuring that it will not lead to a crash
receive/cb2_receive_example.py:An example script which will receive data from the robot. This is exposed on the command line.

How To Setup:

  1. Install the packages: python setup.py install or pip install ur_cb2
  2. Go to the home screen of PolyScope
  3. Click on SETUP Robot
  4. Click on Setup NETWORK
  5. Set the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway to something intelligent, which matches the network on which the robot will be operating
  6. Plug in the network cables.
  7. Rock and roll (it is recommended to test by running cb2-listen from the command line)
  8. Once everything is setup, you can import by: import ur_cb2, import ur_cb2.receive, and import ur_cb2.send

Useful Notes:

  1. The cartesian position is returned as [x,y,z,<rotation vector>] where <rotation vector> is a three element vector representing the an axis about which to rotate (<x,y,z>) in radians equal to the magnitude of the vector.
