Problem with ZeroPose

[Aistee]

Hello Robobuilders,

i´ve a big Problem with my Robobuilder.

I could not write a zero pose any case,MotionBuilder says "zero pose write failure" after ZeroCapture ->5,4,3,2,1,->OK.

Here "http://robosavvy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5506" was the same problem but i don´t understand the solution, can everyone explain me how it works? I´m absolutly new at Robotics, please help me.

Hey there!

About the solution, its a piece of code that you have to compile and run, and it looks like it sends a new serial number to the robobuilder, rewriting it and hopefully solving the problem.

To compile it you will need something that can build c code (They seem to like using Win AVR - CC, I like Visual Studio though or any free compiler that works).

For more help just ask,

Alex

You can now view and edit flash ROM using my basic firmware.

Here for details of firmware: (download, wiki etc)

http://code.google.com/p/robobuilderlib/

to inspect the ROM type 'i' and enter the following program:

Code: Select all

10 FOR I=1 to 13
20 OUT $ROM(I)
30 NEXT I
40 PRINT


Then type '.' to exit input mode and 'r' to run.

If you see 13 digits all is well. If not find your serial number (its printed on the RBC unit) and update the ROM using for example:

Code: Select all

ROM 1,48
ROM 2,49


etc .... Notice without line number command is executed immediately. (when in 'i' interactive mode)

This will set the first digit to ASCII 48 or '0', second to '1' etc ... (Sorry you will have to covert your s/n to ASCII yourself - hint is 48 + digit [0-9]

Use this with CAUTION !!!!!

If you have Basic running theres plenty of fun things to do with it !!!

Here's a little demo I'm working on:

Code: Select all

10 stand 16
20 servo 13=200
30 servo 10=50
40 let a=$psd
45 print "Psd=";$PSD
50 servo 13=250-a
60 servo 10=a
70 wait 200
80 goto 40


The arms dynamically move as the distance sensor detects your presence !!

Thank you very much, you´re great!!!
