Detailed Description

Joint Position Controller.

This class controls positon using a pid loop.

ROS

Parameters:
typeMust be "effort_controllers::JointPositionController"
jointName of the joint to control.
pidContains the gains for the PID loop around position. See: control_toolbox::Pid

Member Function Documentation

Check that the command is within the hard limits of the joint. Checks for joint type first. Sets command to limit if out of bounds.

Parameters:
command- the input to test

Definition at line 244 of file joint_position_controller.cpp.

void effort_controllers::JointPositionController::getGains ( double &  p,
double &  i,
double &  d,
double &  i_max,
double &  i_min 
)

Get the PID parameters.

Definition at line 103 of file joint_position_controller.cpp.

Get the name of the joint this controller uses.

Definition at line 113 of file joint_position_controller.cpp.

Get the current position of the joint.

Returns:
current position

Definition at line 118 of file joint_position_controller.cpp.

The init function is called to initialize the controller from a non-realtime thread with a pointer to the hardware interface, itself, instead of a pointer to a RobotHW.

Parameters:
robotThe specific hardware interface used by this controller.
nA NodeHandle in the namespace from which the controller should read its configuration, and where it should set up its ROS interface.
Returns:
True if initialization was successful and the controller is ready to be started.

Reimplemented from controller_interface::Controller< hardware_interface::EffortJointInterface >.

Definition at line 57 of file joint_position_controller.cpp.

Print debug info to console.

Definition at line 108 of file joint_position_controller.cpp.

Give set position of the joint for next update: revolute (angle) and prismatic (position)

Parameters:
command

Definition at line 124 of file joint_position_controller.cpp.

void effort_controllers::JointPositionController::setCommand ( double  pos_target,
double  vel_target 
)

Give set position of the joint for next update: revolute (angle) and prismatic (position) Also supports a target velocity.

Parameters:
pos_target- position setpoint
vel_target- velocity setpoint
