Phoenix Complete PS2 Tutorial for BBII, SSC-32, and Atom Pro

[snailkeeper]

The Phoenix PS2 tutorial’s done! This tutorial uses an SSC-32 v2 with offsets, and Bot Board II with Atom Pro.

We have three different gait programs courtesy of Xan and Zenta: tripod, ripple, and ‘quadripple’.

Now with the basic “set up” standardized the Phoenix community will be able to share their code, sequences, poses, etc. Hopefully this will be part two of the tutorial. 8)

Share sequences?! NEVER!

Just kidding.

Great tutorial!
Looking forward to see other roboteers sequences and poses too.

BTW Jim, you need an avatar pic too

I’m still looking for the right one.

With regards to the Phoenix Bot Board II / BASIC Atom Pro Tutorial.

correct me if i am wrong, for setting up the SS32 to use stand alone with LynxTerm i am expecting i use the original set up as with other hexapod tutorials befor adding Bot Board=

The SSC-32 should be configured for 115.2 kbaud and DB9 communication, with the VL=VS1 and VS2=VS1 jumpers installed. If your kit does not include a power switch, you can connect the battery quick-connect cable directly to the board and disconnect the battery when not in use. Attach the power cables to the VS1 terminal as shown. Red goes to (+) and black goes to (-).

once this step has been done we can move on to step Step 13 of the (Phoenix Bot Board II / BASIC Atom Pro Tutorial).

only asking as i haven’t seen this step featured in the Phoenix set-up!?

also i am guessing you will say that i only need to do this if i am running the older version of firmware and not V2.01XE!?

some how i feel i have already answered my question, and with this i will say i may have just learned what (Register Support) allows th chip to do… Correct or not?
