Hi all
As you know, KHR 3HV and 2552HV servos now use a Daisy Chain communication approach (similar to Bioloid), which means all servos listen to all commands in the bus (which is unique for all servos).
This in turn means each servo needs to have a UNIQUE ID on the bus or other wise you have multiple servos reacting to a command.
Typically all servos come pre-programmed with the correct IDs when you buy a Kit (KHR 3HV and Servo Expansion Set).
However there are occasions where you may need to reprogram the servo ID:
- When you add a new servo to make a cusotm build
- When you are replacing a broken servo
- ...
Instructions on reprogramming the servo ID can be found here:
