This register is used to set the target position for the Gripper's fingers. The positions 0x00 and 0xFF correspond respectively to the fully
opened and fully closed mechanical stops. For detailed finger trajectory, please refer to the Specifications section.
l 0x00 - Open position, with 50 mm opening
l 0xFF - Closed
l Opening / count: ≈0.2 mm for 50 mm stroke
Info
The activation will allow the Gripper to adjust to any fingers/fingertips. No matter what is the size and/or shape of the
fingers/fingertips, 0 will always be fully opened and 245 fully closed, with a quasi-linear relationship between the two values.
