DYNAMIXEL

DX-116

Control Table The Control Table consists of data for conditions and movement of the

Dynamixel. By writing the values in the control table, you can move the

Dynamixel and detect the condition of the Dynamixel.

RAM and EEPROM The data values for the RAM Area will be set to the default initial values on

power on. The data values for the EEPROM Area are non-volatile and will be

available next power on.

Initial Value The Initial Value column of the control table shows the Factory Default Values

for the case of EEPROM Area Data. For the RAM Area Data, the initial value

column gives the power on data values.

Please note the following meanings for data assigned to each address in the

control table.

Address 0x00,0x01 Model Number

. In the case of the DX-116, the value is 0X0074(116).

Address 0x02 Firmware Version

Address 0x03 ID

. Unique ID number to identify the Dynamixel. Different ID’s are required to

be assigned to “linked” Dynamixels.

Address 0x04 Baud Rate

. Determines the Communication Speed. The Calculation method is:-

Speed(BPS) = 2000000/(Address4+1)

Note A maximum Baud Rate error of 3% is within the UART communication tolerance.

Address 0x05 Return Delay Time

. The time taken after sending the Instruction Packet, to

Data Value as per Major Baud Rate
