Help on the Read data on CDS5500

I'm trying tu use a chain of CDS5500 connected with Arduino using the library
CDS55xx library (with members cds5500.cpp cds5500.h).
In this library are not implemented:
-the function of Read data from a servo (like SERVO.WritePos(1,i,.....);
-the testing of Sense byte
so I can't know the goal posiotion after a command of move.
Does someone have a idea about how doing this?
Thanks

The CDS55XX library looks pretty useless.
I would suggest you take one of the existing AX12 libraries and adapt that.
The CDS55XX library does not appear to handle receive data at all. You will need to link both the TX and RX data lines on to the serial bus. This may either be through a direct connection or through an external buffer depending on the library you use.
The goal position will be what you last set it to. The present position is probably what you want to read.

Thanks a lot.
I'm now trying to use the AX12 libraries but I can't understand what "Adapt" means.
It's sufficient to follow the indications I've found in the following topic: http://arduino.cc/forum/index.php?topic=116011.0 or there are more implementations to do?
In this case could you supply more information?
Thans again
