Control Ubtech Alpha Servos With The Ez-B V4?

Hello, I have a question .

I have these servos in my robot and have now bought the EZ-B V4.

But if it does not get to work, can the Ez b control these servos?

The servos are all connected and the controller only has 1 cable

greetings

No, that is for communicating with the controller, not the servos.

Serial protocol for the servos.

No, that is not enough. Most servos use a standard communication method called PWM (see hte servo tutorial in the learn section of the web site). These are custom servos that use Serial communication, and probably a proprietary instruction set. Dynamixel servos also do this, but they publish the instruction set so DJ was able to write a plugin. For anyone to write a plugin for these, we need the data rate and other connection properties, and the instructions and responses of the communication protocol.

Very unlikely UB is going to provide this.
