Hello,
for months I struggle for creating couplings in an equipment prototype. The problem in this case are the rotational joints.
I create the HardLimits for the rotational joint with
joint.HardLimits = new TxJointConstantHardLimits(0, RwMath.Deg2Rad(1.0));
(The upper limit is both for prismatic joints and rotational joints always 1!)
After creating the equipment prototype, the joint properties window in the kinematics editor shows me the correct values for the lower and upper limit.
But if I open the equipment prototype with the joint jog dialog, all rotational values are weird. The value 57.3 is obviously converted from radians to degrees. (1rad is 57.3 degrees). See attached pictures.
I don't find the error, why the correct values in the property window change to incorrect values in the joint jog dialog.
Can anyone give me some advice, please?

Hello Markus,
I don't think there is a error, maybe a confusion.
The shown value in your joint jog windows isnt' the same as the High and Low limits. It is just a value where your joint is right now. Since you turned of the limits, a value of 57.3 is plausible.
To modify the joint value you should use TxJoint -> currentvalue (in rad or mm).

Hi,
because I create the whole kinematic of the equipment prototype by API, I expect in the JointJog Dialog only values from 0 to 1 for the EP-Joints.
Meanwhile I debugged the whole code again and maybe I did something wrong in the Pose-Creation-Method.
Does JointValues property of TxPoseData expect radians for rotational joints? I have to find out!

revolute joints have to have radian values

Indeed!
The problem was that i created the poses with values in degrees and not in radians.
