Subject: Re: [ros-users] pr2_tabletop_manipulation_apps/Tutorials/Writing a Simple Pick and Place Application
Hi Manuel,

First of all, what robot are you using? Is it a real robot, or a simulated one?

The job of the Hand posture controller is to essentially close the
hand when a grasp is being executed. Our implementation for the PR2 is
quite simple, it just closes the gripper as far as it will go. It
pretty much always succeeds. I can not really imagine what could cause
it to never send back a reply. Maybe 10 seconds is not enough time,
like Ugo suggested, but I've never seen that happen.

Please send me some more info on your setup and we can try to figure
out what's wrong.

Matei
