Velocity setting for topic joint_path_command

I am using the topic joint_path_command from the ros-industrial (link) for robot joint control. More specifically, I am using Orebro's YuMi repo (link) with the industrial-core (kinetic branch).

Now I am publishing just one point trajectory to the topic with desired joint values closed to the current positions. If I leave the velocity field blank in the trajectory_msgs/JointTrajectory for the trajectory point, the robot moves smooth but slow. When I set the velocity field with a value, the robot moves very slow (slower than without setting it), even with a very large value for the velocity. I started the velocity with 0.1 and increase it to 500000, but there is not much different.

How can I increase the robot velocity when using the joint_path_command topic for the robot control?

For future questions: please include all relevant information. I happen to know that you are actually using Orebro's YuMi fork of the ABB driver, but without that information, your question is unanswerable.

@gvdhoorn Sorry for the duplicated question. I was not sure if this is a general ros-industrial issue or specific to the Orebro Yumi repo. I was hoping to get answers from one of the source and close the other when it is solved. Please let me know what other information is required.

The problem with cross-posting is that it leads to split discussions, which can lead to multiple posters providing the same advice, which is a waste of time on both sides.
