Resetting the BASIC Atom Pro 28 pin IC

Hi, I’m new to this whole forum thing so I apologize if this is the wrong section (or for anything else I have done wrong).

My question is that I programmed the Atom pro IC with the offset code (to align all the servos) and then I programmed it with the walking sequence code (the one which makes it walk, walk, kick - or something like that), but now when I turn it on, all it does is just locks up and keeps vibrating and making an annoying beeping sound. Is there a way to completely clean off all the code on the IC (including the servo offsets) and then redo the whole thing again. All the rest of the robot has been assembled fine becuase it looks exactly like the one if the photographs. Thanks.

It might help us to give a more complete answer if we had additional information, like, what robot and what software you are using…

To clear the program, you can always write a real simple program and tell it to program the chip. Something like:

END

This will not clear the EEPROM. If I guess from your description, this might be a brat. You could probably have simple code to clear all of the offsets, by adding this to the above program:

writedm 0, [0, 0]  

But again guessing, you programmed the chip with code that uses a PS2 controller, and either you robot does not have one or it is not talking to it properly.

Sorry about not being very thorough in my question but it was a BRAT. I cleared the offsets and made sdure the servos were all properly set-up (I mean that the servo horn was were it should be and not 90 degrees off or something like that) and then I reprogrammed the IC and it now works fine. Thank You. :mrgreen:
