We have listened to your requests for supporting Dynamixel servos with the EZ-B v4... The firmware now supports them... See, we listen

@DJ Sures do you sleep? Thanks for the update.

cool
DJ, how did you have that connected? I can see the dynamixel cable is connected to a standard cable.
Also, I think this is really great, thanks for doing this.
I'm with cupcakehat, I don't know a lot about the dynamixles but I do alot of them have 4 wires. Are you using 2 ports? One for the regular servo functions and a 2nd for the internal feedback info? Does it support the daisy chaining as well?
Anyway, Awesome work DJ. I know it's still a bit away but I can't wait to get my V4/Revolution stuff.
the diagram off the pin is to find on robotis.
The dynamixal has 3 wires, power gnd and signal. The signal wire is half duplex bidirectional. The protocol is rs485. The ezb simulates the protocol on pin D18. The new ARC has servo selection ports for AX00 to AX50
You can continue to use standard servos with the dynamixal as well.
Thanks for the info DJ. Will this ever find it's way to the V3?
No, the v3 is maxed to its current potential. Literally there are no free CPU cycles left after processing commands and bit banging 20 servo/PWM positions
