Purpose

The gripper is the portion of the robot's hand assembly that grasps and holds the cartridge during put and
fetch operations.  A reach mechanism or motor is responsible for extending or retracting the gripper when
putting or fetching a cartridge at a designated location.

Various sensors guide the gripper during its operation:
   - reach safe sensor
   - cartridge present sensor
 
Most servo mechanical grip errors are caused by problems with the reach mechanism or the voltage
fluctuations affecting the hand assembly.   Here are some of the more common library Result codes affecting
the gripper:
-- Error 5011 means "A tachometer phase error was detected"
-- Error 5069 means "The max or min current was requested an excessive amount of times during a stall
                      move with a minimum position not reach"
-- Error 5065 means "A motor hall error was detected"
