Sensors in actuators

Post by hebi_newbie » Tue Dec 31, 2019 1:42 pm

What types of sensor feedback do actuators provide and, at what rate (in Hz) can you access this feedback?

There are number of sensors in the X-Series and R-Series actuators. This includes feedback related to motion control like output position, velocity, torque, IMU, motor winding temperatures, voltage, current. We also provide a large amount of additional feedback like hardware timestamps, the status LED color, various internal temperatures, and internal motor velocity/position before the gear reduction.

All the sensors in the actuator can be accessed at up to 1kHz.
