Force tare issue with WSG50 gripper #5

Closed radhen closed 6 years ago

radhen commented 6 years ago

I have a WSG50 Weiss gripper. I am using this package and I keep getting this error

doTare() Command TARE not successful: Service or data is not available

I do not have any fingers connected to the gripper which might be the reason in my opinion. Can anyone suggest a work around this? I have plans on connecting my custom made fingers to the gripper afterwards once I get the driver working.

Yes, it's command 0x38, which is for the fingers. The message should not disturb, but of course you can comment out the call to doTare().
