Torso Initialisation

The torso module of the Avatar robot allows the user to position the torso (lifting module) at different heights, allowing for the torso to move up to 600 mm from the lower sensor (positioned at 20 cm from the base of the lifting module), effectively increasing the work volume of the avatar.
Each time the avatar system is power cycled, the torso must be initialized against the lower limit sensor to ensure accurate positioning. If the initialization is not done, then the torso cannot be controlled by using the AMAS VR app.
To initialise the torso assembly:
Click the Configuration tab in the wrist panel.
Click on the dropdown button next to the Cortex button, which will open Robots and Sensors buttons.
Press on the Robots button, which will open the Active Robots panel.
In the Active Robots Panel, for the Torso Robot, click the Initialization button as shown below.
Once the Initialization button is clicked, the Torso Initialization Confirmation Panel will open.
Please make sure the base's platform is clear so the arms and torso are free to move up and down.
Click Confirm if the workspace is clear, if not please click Cancel and clear the workspace before proceeding.
Once the confirm button is clicked, the torso will start moving down to the lower sensor.
Once the torso stops, the initialisation will finish, and the digital twin of the torso will realign.
