This is similar to your request here:

I will draw up a map of the variables for you.

There are 3 bytes, with bits representing the 24 servos. These bits are set when the motion for each servo is complete according to the motion engine.

It is these bytes which are checked by the WAIT instruction. There is also an implied WAIT before a MOVE instruction. They can be read with 3 PEEKs.

Heyup

Having similar thoughts myself (but haven't gone beyond Robobasic for the RN-1 myself) - you might find that you want to replace the firmware - see the thread called "Changing the code in the Mr-3024" or just look up I-bot's posts...

Cheers
Tim

Make RN serial port data management faster

2008-02-06T17:54:01+01:00

HI,

I'm trying to get my RN to walk dynamicly. I've already managed to make him walk by sending commands through the serial port. The thing is that between command and command, it takes too long to send all the data! So I tried to send an order, execute the movement, and while the movement is executing send the next order. The problem is that I have no way of knowing when the first movement has finished so that I can execute the next one, because I cant use the order wait, for reasons that are irrelevant now.

Does anyone has any idea of how it could be solved,

Thanks
