Could you give the process on how I would enter in the right dimensions or at least start on it? Is there a manual on how to do this on the lynxmotion website? When you say dimensions, the dimensions of what specifically? Would the dimensions work through calibration?
- No user guide is available for editing the code
This was what I was looking at when comparing the codes.
- The code available on GitHub is made for Arduino microcontrollers. (HERE)
- The original code with a “.bas” extension is code for the BASIC Atom 28 microcontroller.
- In the above code, you also have a “T_Hex_4DOF_cfg.bas” which is probably what one would need to transfer to the “Hex_Cfg.h” for Arduino. (could be already the same but need to be verified)
Is github the only place where there are prewritten programs for the BotBoarduino of the 4 DOF T-HEX since the codes on the lynxmotion website 4DOF T-Hex Tutorial on step 16 won’t work?
- *GitHub is a place to share code (and more for programmers) and you should not edit anything online. You need to download the code and open it in Arduino IDE. *
- Step 16 will not work since it’s based of the old BASIC Atom 28 microcontroller.
Are they any prewritten programs that work online without having to edit or am I having to edit online? The reason why I’m asking is because when buying the kit itself it said that the programming is already done for the robot.
- The only program is based on the Phoenix code and untested (HERE)

We have a disclaimer on the product page regarding the code.
Some tips:
- Download & Install Arduino IDE (HERE)
- Download the “3DOF-4DOF-Hex” repository from GitHub (HERE)
- Unzip the whole folder somewhere. (EX: Desktop)
- Download the “Arduino-PS2X” repository from GitHub (HERE)
- Install the PS2X library by unzipping the “PS2X_Lib” folder to the “Document/Arduino/Library” folder.
- Open the “BotBoarduino_CH3R_PS2.ino” project.
