How to find neutral position? Plug NiCd battery to RCB-1 NiCd battery has already charged. Switch position "POWER ON" Turn on switch on RCB-1 which is plugged NiCd battery. Servo axis rotates to neutral position. (Initialized position) Put servo hone to axis to find place to horizontal/vertical degree such as left figure.

C o n f i r m a t i o n Confirmation of RCB-1 RCB-1 and channel of servo motor can be confirmed using software on PC. Plug ICS-PC interface II to RCB-1 and PC. Start software. Turn on the board and Set "SYNC" to ON in the software. Confirm channel and servo motor position using slider of channel on the software.

T r i m f u n c t i o n What is trim function? Servo motor axis is fixed by a servo hone using RCB-1 function to get neutral position. In this step, little gap of degree may occur. Espcially, it causes large gap by difference degree of servo motors on the groin.

H o m e p o s i t i o n s e t t i n g In this step, robot can stand alone if power is supplied. However, the robot is just standing. At first, we set basement posture to the robot called "home position." What is home position? Home position is the basement posture.
Page 39
Servo motors make noise if power is supplied. It is normal performance. In the case of robot, each servo motor works to keep position even if the robot is just standing. How long the robot works with NiCd battery? Depending on charge level of NiCd battery and performance, full charge battery can work the robot 20-30 minutes. Of cause, various performance need much electricity.
