Hi pudding
I see the installation size grows significantly with each version number
In any case, Roboplus should be moving to mainstream support in the next weeks with the expected release of the new Bioloid towards the end of the year.
Therefore feel free to post and share your experiences here but I believe Robotis will now be focusing on getting it ready for GA so any bug reports at this point will only be dealt with after it has been officially released.
As a summary of what was discussed in this thread please note:
1) Roboplus can work with CM-5 but you first need to update the firmware.
Tod do that go to R+ Manager to upgrade the firmware.
You need a recent R+ version. Read back on this thread to find the details.
2) Communication issues: you can only have one R+ Program with the COM port open at one time. If the com port is open in one program, other programs won't be able to open the com and you'll get an error.
3) There is a lot of good information about all programs (including explanation of advanced functions such as using the remote controller in R+ Task, editing motion pages in Excel, etc.) in a post I made when I was back in Korea. The post is, again, back on this thread.
4) Also some users have asked about R+ Task samples with comments in English. I have uploaded a few and, again, posted them on this thread so look back on the thread please.
Other issues have been discussed and solved on this thread so be sure to look through it carefully as it contains very useful information.
Pedro.
