OpenManipulator-Pro having issues with MoveIt!

Hello developers!

First my workspace is implemented in Ubuntu 18.04 and ROS Melodic with MoveIt! 1.0. I'm having issues to do a simple task in Python:

  • Move to poseA
  • Move to poseB

The function that I use to command the robot:

def go_to_pose(self, pose_name):
    self.group.set_named_target(pose_name)
    self.group.go(wait=True)
    self.group.stop()
    self.group.clear_pose_targets()

Look that wait=True is set!

if __name__ == '__main__':
    try:
        manip = openManipulator()
        raw_input("Press Enter to start!")
        manip.go_to_pose('pSearch')
        #rospy.sleep(12)
        manip.go_to_pose('pHome')
    except rospy.ROSInterruptException:
        pass
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        pass

The problem: The OpenManipulator-Pro doesn't respect the sequence: move to position A and then to position B, it tries to do both at the same time, even with the Wait = True argument. However, this does not occur in the Gazebo.

As a temporary solution, rospy.sleep () can make the situation sequential, but it is not a permanent solution. I wondered what is going on.
