Wait for Gripper to Close: The job will pause until the gripper has fully closed on the object. If a
vacuum gripper is being used, this will cause the job to pause until the vacuum is sensed.
Override Gripper Settings
Closed Width: Normally the gripper will close fully when picking up and object. In some cases it is
desirable to limit the amount the gripper will close. This could be when picking up an easily crushed
object. You can limit the amount the gripper closes by entering in that number here.
Speed: It is sometimes desirable to slow the speed at which the gripper closes. This can be useful
when picking up fragile objects. Normally the gripper will close at full speed. To decrease the closing
speed, enter the desired percentage of speed here.
Force: Use this entry to override the amount of force the gripper will apply to the object it is
acquiring.
Use the "Override Gripper Settings" to specify the width, speed, and force for picking up delicate objects.
All of these override functions require a gripper with these control capabilities.
Grip Now: This button will cause the gripper to activate immediately when pushed. This button is
only used while OB7 is Learning. This option is not present when OB7 is performing the job.
Release Now: This button will cause the gripper to release immediately when pushed. This button is
only used while OB7 is Learning. This option is not present when OB7 is performing the job.
