WHAT’S NEW
• EXPANDED SUPPORT FOR FRU / MOTOR COMBINATIONS
• Added support for additional combinations of motors and FRUs to simplify
field upgrades.
• X300 / X350 OS
• The OS for the X300 and X350 can now be upgraded in the field. The version
number is displayed in the Web UI. The X350 can be upgraded via the Web
UI, using the same process already supported for Artimo and X650. The X300
requires upgrading via a standalone installer. Contact Ross Technical Support
for assistance.
• X650 BEHAVIOUR ON E-STOP RELEASE
• In 7.4a, the X650 would power cycle on E-STOP release. It will now recover
and continue to operate without requiring a power cycle.
• ARTIMO LOCALIZATION MAP
• The localization map shown in the Web UI now distinguishes between the
front and back lidar to assist with detection of problems with lidar calibration.
• MOVE CUE TOLERANCE FOR XY PEDS
• A new threshold, MoveCueTolerance, has been added to determine when
Move Cues will fail. This has been separated from the existing
LinearTolerance, which determines when the orange border is shown
around a move or preset in SmartShell to indicate that one or more axes are
not quite on target. MoveCueTolerance is set to a default of 50 mm to reduce
the impact of cues not reaching target. Set to 20 mm in the config.tmpl to
restore 7.2f behaviour.
• XY POSITION TRACKING
• The FreeD tracking data for XY peds and Furio dollies using the GenDolly or
GenDolly2 algorithm will now include the base rotation encoded into the 16-
bit user-defined field. This is used by SmartShell Visualizer v8.1a and higher
to show base orientation.
• PAN RELATIVE STEERING AS DEFAULT
• Pan relative steering is the new default option on power-up for all XY peds.
Use SmartShell user settings to override the default.
• ARTIMO WHEEL MOTOR STABILIZATION OPTIONS
• Artimo now offers the option to select between three motor
stabilization settings in the Web UI. These options can be found
in the Axis Settings page under XY.
