get_robot_state

This is a function for checking information on the current operation mode of the robot controller along with the ToMonitoringStateCB callback function. The user should transfer the operation state depending on the current state using the setRobotControl() function for safety.

Example

if (drfl.get_robot_state() == ESTATE_STANDBY) {
    if (drfl.get_robot_mode() == ROBOT_MODE_MANUAL) {
        // Manual mode
        drfl.jog(JOG_AXIS_JOINT_3, MOVE_REFERENCE_BASE, 0.0f);
        sleep(2);
        drfl.jog(JOG_AXIS_JOINT_3, MOVE_REFERENCE_BASE, 0.0f);
    }
}

This example checks the robot’s state and mode before motion. When the robot is in standby and manual mode, it performs a short jog motion on joint 3. No motion is executed otherwise, ensuring safe operation.
