We have gone through many tutorials , adjusting servos etc. We have completed all the prerequisites for the next section but directions state to start with your assembled JD and charged battery. Where are the directions to put JD together, specifically which ports to plug the servos into? What am I missing? I am an engineer but feel dumb:(

all is fine.seeya
@Philly... You'll pick up on it quickly once you get the JD sample project loaded.... We'll still be here (the forum) if you have any more questions...
Thanks Richard
Philly, your profile states that you have completed the tutorials, even the tutorial that you're asking about
. The direct link to the tutorial in question is here: https://synthiam.com/Tutorials/Lesson/27?returnId=32
Also, when you load ARC it asks to view the tutorials (unless you have disabled it). There is a also a shortcut link on the ARC desktop for the tutorials. When you load ARC, there is a popup which asks if you would like assembly instructions to put the robot together (unless you disabled it).
To help improve your experience, what recommendations do you have on this topic? How can we make it better
@DJ Sures,
Based on some of the questions we have been seeing from new users who got EZ-B's at Christmas who had not been participating in the forums first, I have a simple recommendation.
Inside each robot box, on top of the parts, put a piece of paper with a big "STOP" on it, and then instructions for finding and taking the tutorials for that robot.
I think people are surprised to be getting a box of parts with no instructions or indication to go to the EZ-Robot web site for the current version of the software and current manuals.
I imagine some of your warranty replacement requests are coming from things like servos being plugged in backwards or not calibrated and driven beyond their limits.

I know a lot of newbies are also getting confused on how to get their ezb connected to their pc and then to ARC.... I personally did not have too much trouble getting my ezb up and running the first time... The tutorials were a big help... But then again, I do have experience with robotics in general and other IDEs.... However, some people seem to be totally lost (especially if they have no previous robot experience) even with the tutorials...
I thought (and feel free to critique my suggestion as I don't know how difficult it would be to incorporate into ARC) it would be awesome to have some sort of auto configuration tool that the user runs to help get them connected to their pc and then ultimately to ARC... The program would ask questions about their ssid and password and whether or not they want the ezb in Client or WP mode... The software would auto configure their ezb and then automatically connect to ARC for them as well....
May not be practical, it's just a thought...

i know one person who's confused still,me
alan i total agree .stop and read
@nomad... You don't count... LOL You're the ez robot poster boy... You figured it out, that's all that matters....
