DynamixelShield and RX-64

[guilhermeaspereira]

Hello,

I would like to control the RX-64 servo with the Shield. Currently, it is not working. Is there anything we can do?

Thanks, Guilherme

Hi Guilherme,

In order to enable RX series, you should modify the Dynamixel2Arduino library config.h file in your local disk as below.

#define ENABLE_ACTUATOR_RX              1

If you cannot find the library files, please use Manual installation method instead of using the Library Manager. Thank you.

Thanks, Will!

I found the file and changed

define ENABLE_ACTUATOR_RX 1

But it still not working. Is there anything else I can try? Regards.

Hi, which Arduino board do you use with the DYNAMIXEL Shield? Please make sure that you have set the power jumper properly, as well as the switch. Thank you.

Hi Will,

I'm using Arduino UNO. Yes, I tested different power methods and also changed the switch. Unfortunately, it is still not working. Do you suggest a simple test? I'm currently using some of the examples: led, position control, etc.

Thanks, Guilherme

@guilhermeaspereira Hi Guilherme, Thank you for your patience. We've tested and confirmed that AX and RX series have difficulty in communicating with Arduino Uno at Baudrate 57600bps due to margin of error. In this case, please use 9600bps or 115200bps instead. Thank you.

Hi Will,

This works! Thanks for your help!
