Adding Servos To The Motion Editor

I saw a few old posts on here about adding servos to the Motion Editor, but there was no clear instructions that I found.

Start by opening NotePad (not WordPad).

For a 21 DOF humanoid you will use the following code.

Code: Select all
3D file:humanoid.x
Motor Number:21
0:1:[1]Dynamixel:512
1:2:[2]Dynamixel:512
2:3:[3]Dynamixel:512
3:4:[4]Dynamixel:512
4:5:[5]Dynamixel:512
5:6:[6]Dynamixel:512
6:7:[7]Dynamixel:512
7:8:[8]Dynamixel:512
8:9:[9]Dynamixel:512
9:10:[10]Dynamixel:512
10:11:[11]Dynamixel:512
11:12:[12]Dynamixel:512
12:13:[13]Dynamixel:512
13:14:[14]Dynamixel:512
14:15:[15]Dynamixel:512
15:16:[16]Dynamixel:512
16:17:[17]Dynamixel:512
17:18:[18]Dynamixel:512
18:19:[19]Dynamixel:512
19:20:[20]Dynamixel:512
20:21:[21]Dynamixel:512
Sensor Number:1
0:100:[100]Dynamixel


Copy it into the NotePad window, and save with the "Save As Type" set to "All Files", for the "File Name" type "Humanoid21.rbt", for the folder save it in Program File - Robotis - Bioloid - Software - Robot Files.

Make sure that you changed the extra servo IDs to 19, 20, and 21, your robot is on, and plugged into your computer.

Open the Motion Editor, click on Setup, within the drop down setup menu click Change Robot File, select and open Humanoid21.rbt, restart Motion Editor, you should now be able to use 21 servos.

As I get to it, I will add more types of robots to this topic. I also want to edit the .x files, which I hope to get around to this Fall.

Does anyone have the PDF from mic?

It is not online anymore, and mic seems to be gone... :(

Maybe someone else knows how to add servos to the Bioloid?

Right now I am trying to add 5 servos for a total of 23.

Any help would be great!
