device is connected or the program is started and then becomes
immediately False. This can be used to detect if a device is connected or
set any initial value on program start.

Conditions
Description
Preload
Actual force applied to the pads [N] (below 50N it reads 0N)
Ultrasonic
Actual distance measured from the bottom of the gripper to the object.[mm]
Pad position
Actual position of the pads either In or Out
Pads worn
If a Grip was detected and then object distance becomes more than 18mm
(without the pads being pulled IN) the object is lost so the Pads are Bad
otherwise reads Good.
Busy
Pads are in motion
Grip
While the pads are OUT if the Preload force is reached and the object distance
is less than 18mm, then Grip becomes TRUE otherwise FALSE. (resets to FALSE
by pulling the pads IN)
Commands
Description
Pad position
To pull the pads In or push the pads Out
Preload threshold
To set the preload force limit that is used to detect a successful Grip.
Available options are: 50N, 90N, 120N
