Hello,
I’m building a hexapod robot based on the Bot Board II controlling an SSC-32. I have some questions
about the “SSC-32 general purpose sequencer”:
What is the sence of the general purpose sequencer. What can I do with it, that I can’t do otherwise?
Is it essential for programming complex gaits?
In the the general purpose sequencer manual
lynxmotion.com/images/html/build137.htm
are a lot symbols missing (white rectangles instead). Is there another version of the manual
without these errors?
Thanks.
Sorry for that - I am not sure how all those broken symbols made it into the document, but I have fixed it now.
The GP sequencer is two sequencer engines that can play back stored sequences in the specified speed and direction requested. The EEPROM can hold hundreds of these sequences. Once commanded the SSC-32 sends the commands with no more interaction from the host microcontroller.
Not at all. Look at the Phoenix code. It does not rely on the GP sequencers. However Kåre has done some seriously cool walking gaits and demonstrations using the GP sequencer system on his Phoenix.
