C code of the Bioloid firmware?

Hello,

I'm new with the Bioloid and I want to control it directly programming the AtMega128 in C to have more freedom, but as a start point it will be nice to have the C code for the Bioloid firmware, which seems to be like an interpreter for the output of the Behaviour Control Programmer.
Does anyone have the C code of the Bioloid firmware? and the specification of the output from the Behaviour Control Programmer and the Motion Editor?

Thanks.

Robotis doesn't release the source to the bioloid firmware. They do however include an example.c file with your kit that gives you a starting point to communicate to the dynamixels. From there you are on your own.

Some one has worked out the motion editor's output and created a c struct definition for it. Search these boards.

Given the BCP's simplicity, I'm not sure very many are all that hot to spend the time to reverse it.
