Under-Actuated Cable-Driven Parallel Robots (UACDPRs) employ a number of extendable cables smaller than the degrees of freedom (Dofs) of the end-effector (EE) that they control. As a consequence, the EE is under-constrained and preserves some freedoms, even in case all actuators are locked, which may lead to undesirable oscillations. These datasets are associated with a paper which is proposing a methodology for the computation of the EE natural oscillation frequencies, whose knowledge has proven to be convenient for control purposes. This procedure, based on the linearization of the system internal dynamics about an equilibrium configuration, can be applied to a generic robot suspended by any number of cables comprised between 2 and 5. The validity of the proposed method is demonstrated by experiments on 6-\dof prototype suspended by 2, 3, and 4 cables.
