Undefined kinematics

Platform: Process Simulate

This sanity check detects joints with dependency functions that cannot be parsed or are undefined. This indicates errors in the kinematic model definition. The export cannot proceed until the kinematics functions are properly defined.

Dialog shown in Resolver​

Robot: {robotName1}, joint {jointName1}Robot: {robotName2}, joint {jointName2} Kinematics functions unsupported. Verify before proceeding

What you can do in this dialog​

  • Can you continue export? No
  • Buttons in the popup: OK
  • What happens next: The export does not continue until the issue is fixed.
  • Next step: How to fix it

Impact if you continue​

Export cannot complete until every joint dependency function listed in the dialog parses and evaluates in Process Simulate.

How to fix it​

  1. For each robot and joint named in the dialog, open joint dependency / kinematic function authoring for that robot in Process Simulate.
  2. Repair or remove invalid expressions, missing references, or unsupported constructs until dependencies resolve without errors.
  3. Save the study and re-run export.
