Overview¶
This document describes the gRPC-based ACS (Autonomous Control System) API for Bear ACS users. The ACS API provides methods for controlling Carti600 and enables users to:
- Dispatch and manage tasks — Create task chains, reassign, cancel, and query task status
- Monitor and control robots — Retrieve online robot states, pause and resume robot operations
- Retrieve map information — Query map vertex/point data including docking configurations
The ACS API is deployed on-premises and communicates via gRPC with HTTP/JSON transcoding support.
Available RPCs¶
| Category | RPC | HTTP Method | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Task | AddTaskChain | POST /task/add |
Dispatch a sequence of tasks to AMRs |
| Task | ReassignTaskByAmrId | PUT /taskChain/reassignByAmrId/{amr_id} |
Reassign tasks for a specific robot |
| Task | ReassignTaskByTaskChainId | PUT /taskChain/reassignByTaskChainId/{task_chain_id} |
Reassign tasks under a specific task chain |
| Task | FinishTaskChain | GET /taskChain/endFinishPauseIsFalseTask/{task_chain_id} |
Mark a dispatch confirmation task as completed |
| Task | QueryTaskChain | GET /task/getTaskChainByIds |
Retrieve task chain info with status and timing |
| Task | CancelTaskChain | POST /task/cancel/{task_chain_id} |
Cancel a task chain |
| Robot | GetOnlineRobots | GET /amr/onlineAmr |
Get all online robots with their states |
| Robot | PauseRobot | POST /amr/taskCommand/pause/{amr_id} |
Pause a robot's task execution |
| Robot | ResumeRobot | POST /amr/taskCommand/resume/{amr_id} |
Resume a paused robot |
| Map | GetMap | GET /map/getMapVertexes/{map_id} |

Communication Pattern¶
All RPCs are unary (request/response). The following sequence diagram illustrates how a request flows from a client to the ACS system:
sequenceDiagram
box Client Network
participant Client
end
box On-Prem Network
participant ACS as ACS API Service
participant CS as Control System
end
Client->>ACS: gRPC / HTTP Request
ACS->>CS: Forward to Control System
CS->>ACS: Return result
ACS->>Client: Forward response
