----官方教程分为3个小节----

The following tutorials are provided to demonstrate installation and operation of an ABB robot using the ROS Industrial interfaces:

Installing the ABB ROS Server
This tutorial walks through the steps of installing the ROS server code on the ABB robot controller and configuring the required controller settings.
Running the ROS Server
This tutorial describes how to run the ABB ROS Server, so the robot will execute motion commands sent from the ROS client node.

The following tutorials show how to use the ABB Robot Studio with the driver:

Using Simulated Robot in Robot Studio
This tutorial describes how to setup the ABB RobotStudio simulator for use with the ROS-Industrial driver.

分别为：安装ABB ROS服务器，运行ROS 服务器和在RobotStudio中使用仿真机器人，这里以仿真机器人为例，

当然配置完成后就可以控制真实机械臂运动了。

A 在RobotStudio中使用仿真机器人

通过使用仿真机械臂替代真实机械臂，可以在ROS和ABB机械臂进行通信仿真。这种情况下，通常有两台PC，

一台运行windows及ABB机械臂，winpc；另一台运行ubuntu和ROS，rospc。

1 需要熟悉ABB RobotStudio使用
1.1 新建一个空工作站解决方案：

1.2 在ABB模型库中选择一款机械臂，这里以IRB120_3_58__01为例：

1.3 选择机器人系统，点击从布局：

1.4 点击下一步，出现下面界面，点击选项：

1.5 通过过滤器快速添加616-1 PC interface 和 623-1 Multitasking后，点击完成：

2 安装RAPID文件

2.1 到创建的文档\RobotStudio\Systems下选择对应的工作站
2.2 打开，新建ROS文件夹，并复制\abb_driver\rapid到其中（下载地址https://github.com/ros-industrial/abb）：

2.3 查看目前winpc的IP地址，并写入到ROS_socket.sys中对应处，如下：

3 选择控制器，配置示教器：

在配置中，为了使用方便先将语言设置为中文：

配置到手动模式，就可以进行下一步，安装ROS服务器。

B 安装ROS服务器

必须具备的组件清单：

Multitasking (623-1) -- for parallel socket communications
Socket Messaging (672-1) -- for communications with a ROS PC
for recent RobotWare versions, this option is included with "PC Interface (616-1)"
RobotWare OS >= 5.13 -- for required socket options
earlier versions may work, but will require modifications to the RAPID code

如果不全，仿真没有问题，但无法控制实际机器人。

之前，已经将代码文件复制到相应文件夹下了，如(e.g. /<system>/HOME/ROS/*)。

进行下一步操作。

1 配置控制器

这里文件说明如下：

Shared by all tasks
ROS_common.sys -- Global variables and data types shared by all files
ROS_socket.sys -- Socket handling and simple_message implementation
ROS_messages.sys -- Implementation of specific message types
Specific task modules
ROS_stateServer.mod -- Broadcast joint position and state data
ROS_motionServer.mod -- Receive robot motion commands
ROS_motion.mod -- Issues motion commands to the robot

1.1 创建任务

在ABB--控制器--配置编辑器--Controller--Task：

Create 3 tasks as follows:

Name	Type	Trust Level	Entry	Motion Task
ROS_StateServer	SEMISTATIC	NoSafety	main	NO
ROS_MotionServer	SEMISTATIC	SysStop	main	NO
T_ROB1	NORMAL		main	YES

It is easiest to wait until all configuration tasks are completed before rebooting the controller.

NOTES:

The T_ROB1 motion task probably already exists on your controller.
If T_ROB1 has existing motion-control modules, you may need to rename the main() routine in ROS_Motion.mod to ROS_main(). In this case, set the Entry point for T_ROB1 task to ROS_main().
For multi-robot controllers, specify the desired robot (e.g. rob1) for each task
SEMISTATIC tasks will auto-start when controller is booted. They are visible, but cannot be easily seen for troubleshooting. For debug or development purposes, it may be desired to set both ROS_*Server tasks to Type=NORMAL.

1.2 加载模块到任务

在ABB--控制器--配置编辑器--Controller--Automatic Loading of Modules：

File	Task	Installed	All Tasks	Hidden
HOME:/ROS/ROS_common.sys		NO	YES	NO
HOME:/ROS/ROS_socket.sys		NO	YES	NO
HOME:/ROS/ROS_messages.sys		NO	YES	NO
HOME:/ROS/ROS_stateServer.mod	ROS_StateServer	NO	NO	NO
HOME:/ROS/ROS_motionServer.mod	ROS_MotionServer	NO	NO	NO
HOME:/ROS/ROS_motion.mod	T_ROB1	NO	NO	NO

添加完成后如下所示：

然后，重启控制器，应用更改。

1.3 更新

在控制器--重启中选择合适模式进行重启，完成后可以看到如下：

如果IP错误：

设置正确IP后，显示：
