Using remote controller comand

2011-11-09T00:37:07+01:00

for simpler approach, maybe you could use zigbee remote controller protocol via the serial cable. Few things to remember:
1. The zigbee protocol use a unique packet to send a command to CM-5
Packet Format : 0xFF 0x55 LSB ~LSB MSB ~MSB
2.Your robot must operate in remote controlled mode, you write task code that respond to a specific remote controller command to call a predefined motion.

for detailed info on remote control/zig 100 packet you could refers to this

How to call a predefined movement from CM5 using python

2011-10-24T13:00:23+01:00

ryanryan,

First you will need to establish a serial connection between the PC, running python, and your CM-5. Then you can transmit commands to the robot pragmatically just as if you were using Terminal mode in RoboPlus. To play a motion page your program will need to switch the controller into ME (motion executor) mode and issue the PLAY command.

A complete list of controller commands can be found at http://robosavvy.com/Builders/Fritzoid/commands.zip

How to call a predefined movement from CM5 using python

2011-10-22T08:14:46+01:00

hmmm what i'm planning to do is to use motion editor to create a list of movement, say "forward walking" and "backward walking" and download these motions into the CM5. And i'll just call these "forward walking" and "backward walking" in my python code whenever i want the robot to move. Is this way workable?

How to call a predefined movement from CM5 using python

Is your plan to retain the standard code in the CM5 and download and execute motion pages ? Or do you plan to replace the code int he CM5 with something based on libbioloid or arbotix for instance.

Can the predefined python movements be expressed as motion pages ?

How to call a predefined movement from CM5 using python

2011-10-21T09:02:17+01:00

Hi guys I've been working on humanoid bioloid as my final year project. I just want to know whether it's there any way to c all a predefined movement from CM5 using python? I've tried to use USB2Dynamixel to move the servos of the legs but it was kinda laggy and it failed. So now i'm trying to download those predefined movements such as "forward walking"/"backward walking" into the CM5 controller and then call the movements in python when necesssary. Hope anyone of you here could help me with this
