Hello everybody,
I built my robot model through the robot simulation model builder and found a lot of property that i don't understand.

Could someone explain me how those property affect my model?

For example...

1) scale has only a visual effect?

2) what if I increment or decrement the stop ERP parameter? And the CFM?

3) what happens if feedback is activated?
The other ones are in the image.
Thanks in advance for any help.

(sorry for my english)

If you know the theory behind the model, do the math and work it out for yourself.  If you don't know the theory, but have built the robotic model, run the model, varying the parameters and see what happens.  For example, if you want to know what happens if Feedback is activated, then activate Feedback and observe!

If you do go adjusting parameters (I'm assuming you're using a "virtual model", not an actual physical robot), make significant changes to parameters (vary them one at a time, maybe even making a graph of the results).  Try doubling and halving them.

I just implemented the kinematic chain of the robot but don't know dynamic parameters or how the robot responds to a particular force applied. I want to use the simulated motors, giving an angle and seeing the spatial position that it reachs. 
I tried to multiply for ten times but in simulation environment I don't understand the effects of change. 
Maybe I should keep track of accellerations and velocities but I just want something easier and less difficult to compute.
There isn't any good guide for the CAD model builder?

I read something in the help but nothing that explain well those properties...

Hi BuoNI,

maybe you can find more informations in the following white papers:

Tips For Creating a Good VRML Model

Overview of the LabVIEW Robotics Simulator

I hope this will help you.

Kind regards.

Thankyou Cla_cup,

unfortunately this is not what I'm looking for.
I would like something that focus more on the properties of joints and motors.

Thanks anyway, I really appreciate all the help and documents that you gave me.

Best regards,

BuoNI
