Can anyone tell me how to control all Ax12 with usb2dynamixel ?
Do you have any program for pc ?
How i can set angles in degree on dynamixel when i use it with usb2dynamixel :?: :roll: :cry:

Do you know the Robotis eManual?

Here you have the USB2Dynamixel programming help.

How can I set angle and time delay programming between dynamixels ? :roll:

Robotis uses the SYNC_WRITE command to set the goal positions for up to 26 servos at once. A new command is issued every 7.825 ms. Each servo's motion is broken-down into increments proportional to the distance it needs to travel. This way all servos arrive at their destinations at the same time.

You will have to write control code that does something similar!

What are you trying to do? This determine whether u can use something simple like writing a robotask program.

Mohit, I'm not sure where do you have "the problem"?

First, as uncleBob said, what do you want or need to do?

Second, which tool/language/API or any other way do you want to use to program it (Roboplus task,C,dynamixel, any language or tool from PC)?

I just want to use Usb2Dynamixel to control with pc not from any controller in visual c++ or visual basic. :lol:

Then what you want is what siempre.aprendiendo posted as the first reply in this thread. Download the dynamixel SDK for windows and compile one of the example visual studio projects.

Roboplus supports only 25 dynamixels. If i want more than 30 dynamixels than I have to use 2 cm510 or Usb2Dynamixel is best fore more dynamixels ? :roll: :?: :o

Anything over 25 dynamixels is a big problem :?

If you control from a PC using the USB2Dynamixel then you will need to be hard-wired to the robot at all times.

Two controllers would be autonomous but you would need to split the work into two parts.

Maybe you can let the controller handle 24 of the servos and then handle the other 6 in the callback subroutine.
