Using VRC User Interface Applications

This task describes how to bring up VRC User Interface applications installed on the V6 machine, see the command line executed by V6 to make this happen, and to ask the VRC to close all its applications running on the V6 machine.

Note: These applications are provided by VRC vendors and must be installed on the V6 system before they can be used. For details, refer to the documentation for the VRC module.

Before you begin: Enable an RRS-II connection for the robot.
  1. Select RRS Operations.
  2. Select a robot.
    The RRS Operations dialog box appears for the selected robot.
  3. Click the VRC UI tab.

    The Available VRC User Interfaces pane lists the user interface applications supported by this VRC module.

    Note: In the example above, the VRC module vendor provided only a VRC UI application named VRCMonitor.
  4. Select the VRCMonitor application and click Open.

    The VRCMonitor application is started by V6.

    To close the VRCMonitor application, close the window.

  5. Click Show Command to display (in the robot RRS Message Window) the command line that was executed by V6 to run the VRCMonitor application in the RRS Message Window for the device.
  6. Click Close All to stop all VRC applications currently running.
    Note: This will only happen if the VRC module supports the corresponding RRS-II call.
