Detailed Description

Joint controller which can be attached to a model with a reference to a single joint. Currently only the first axis of a joint is actuated.

System Parameters

<joint_name> The name of the joint to control. Required parameter.

<use_force_commands> True to enable the controller implementation using force commands. If this parameter is not set or is false, the controller will use velocity commands internally.

<topic> Topic to receive commands in. Defaults to /model/<model_name>/joint/<joint_name>/cmd_vel.

<initial_velocity> Velocity to start with.

Velocity mode: No additional parameters are required.

Force mode: The controller accepts the next optional parameters:

<p_gain> The proportional gain of the PID. The default value is 1.

<i_gain> The integral gain of the PID. The default value is 0.

<d_gain> The derivative gain of the PID. The default value is 0.

<i_max> The integral upper limit of the PID. The default value is 1.

<i_min> The integral lower limit of the PID. The default value is -1.

<cmd_max> Output max value of the PID. The default value is 1000.

<cmd_min> Output min value of the PID. The default value is -1000.

<cmd_offset> Command offset (feed-forward) of the PID. The default value is 0.
