When I export the settings from Visual Sequencer, a page opens up that shows all the servo positions that will be saved.
Where is this export file anyway? Is it encrypted somehow because when I look for it, I can’t find it anywhere on my computer.
I was really interested because I was making sequences with VS and one of my servos would not return to “Home” as I instructed. I could manually move the servo (the “wrist” on the Humanoid template) but in a sequence it would not return. I tried the other side of the humanoid and it worked fine, so I changed the servo from 18 to 19 and THAT worked fine as well. I wanted to see how the value was stored in the sequence that made it NOT work.
Hi,
Most operations target the installation folder by default, which normally is %programfiles(x86)%\Sequencer_SSC-32.
When you export from the Projects window and press OK, the software will ask for a path. If you use the default path (the installation folder of the application), it may not have the rights required to write there (for security reasons, most software should not anyways). Windows then intervenes (trying to be helpful / prevent a crash) by redirecting the files to a temporary store under %localappdata%\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Sequencer_SSC-32. Of course, if you browse to the regular folder (%programfiles(x86)%\Sequencer_SSC-32) as a regular user, you will not find the exported CSV files since that is not where they actually are.
This above will probably apply to any other export created by the software and thus solving the missing file issue, which is really a Windows access rights issue.
The simplest solution is to export to a different folder than the installation folder, where the application will be allowed to write a file normally, such as your %homepath%\Documents folder or your %homepath%\Desktop.
We are unsure about the actual issue you are facing with the sequence. Once you are able to find your sequence file, feel free to respond here and attach it to your message so we can have a look.
Sincerely,
Okay I found it in virtual store and was able to open it. Ugly!
I’m not sure if the file will help you guys because like I said, the servo on Port 18 did not want to respond through the sequencer, but was okay everywhere else (Visual sequencer, SSC32 sequencer, and Lynxmotion). Even after erasing the entire sequence and starting over 3-4 times, I would get exactly the same result. The servo would extend the “elbow” but would not bring it back with a step, but would if I dragged it with the mouse.
In any case, I put the elbow on port 19 instead and have no problems, it all works. so I won’t waste any more of people’s time by troubleshooting further, unless the problem occurs again.
Thanks for your help and that good response above…I learned something.
