1-1. Functions
The USB2Dynamixel is a device used to directly drive the
dynamixel on a PC. The USB2Dynamixel is used by
connecting to a USB port of a PC, and is equipped with 3p
and 4p connectors to be connected with a variety of
dynamixels.
In addition, the USB2Dynamixel can be used to transform a
USB port into a serial port for a PC without a serial port
such as a lap-top computer. This function can be used
effectively when dynamixel exclusive controllers such as
the CM-2, CM-2+ and CM-5 are connected to an UBS port
or when the ZIG2Serial is connected to an USB port to
control a robot by radio.
