A red poppy will be built on March the 22th and 23th, at La cité des sciences et de l’industrie in Paris.
25 contributors will be invited by la cité des sciences to build poppy, think about programing and using it and imaginate demonstration with poppy and other robots.
If you are interested you can join us, more details at : http://www.cite-sciences.fr/fr/carrefour-numerique/contenu/c/1239022827629/evenements/

Hi,
We are trying to control the MX-28 motors but when we are reading the port we have to specify the baudrate (57600) : “dxl_io = pypot.dynamixel.DxlIO(port,baudrate_MX_28)“
otherwise it’s impossible to get the id (scan method fails). Then we make the configuration file .json, but it cannot communicate with the motor :” DxlError: Could not find the motors (1,) on bus COM3.” We think it’s also because the baudrate is not specified but when we looked in the pypot doc we didn’t find a way to specify it in the configuration file… Could you help us?
PS: it works perfectly with AX-12A motors.
Wrench Bolt M23 --> For the fixing 3D parts to the MX-28 horn
Wrench Bolt M2.54 --> For the fixing 3D parts to the MX-64 horn (the hip_y motors)
Wrench Bolt M2.56 --> For attaching MX motors to 3D parts
Wrench Bolt M2.58 --> For attaching horn to MX-28
Wrench Bolt M3*8 --> For attaching horn to MX-64
To attach a motor to a 3D printed part, you have to put M2.5 nuts the motor:
Ok so you should download the Dynamixel Wizard, I updated the topic for the Dynamixel configuration with information needed:
When you have installed the RoboPlus software, look for the Dynamixel Wizard. Take each motor one by one and give them an unique ID and set the baudrate to 1Mbaud as explained here:
Thank you, You are downloading the software, 1 hour left :).
We will try tomorrow. By the way could you give us your configuration file for the whole robot.
The configuration file for the whole robot can be found on the poppy-software repository.
First you need to install it. The best option would be to clone the repository but it is fine if you just download the last version.
Once you have the poppy-software folder, move it where you want and then install it.
