SIRLAL

So I built the robot and verified it is working, but I would like to know if there is a template out there for movement for SIX? I used the built in template in ARC for SIX and it does give me an image of it, then it shows you how to build it using recommended port numbers for the servos. I thought when I opened up an AutoPosition with Movement control it would have been preconfigured for basic movements. However the best I can tell I will need to setup frames for all the basic movement actions like forward, backward and turning. I have watched the tutorial videos and understand the setup of the frames and actions, but trying to figure out how to make the SIX walk will be painful for a beginner to hexapods.
If I'm missing something please let me know, otherwise does someone have a template I could use for these basic movements.
Thx Chris
Yes there is. It's in the examples folder. However I believe you need the latest version of ARC (2014.09.09)

Hi Rich, Thanks for the quick response, I did look at that example file before my post and didn't find anything, so I tried again and still only have 3 controls when it opens. The "Connection" control, a "EZ-robot" control, and the "notepad" control. I thought I may have overwrote this file by mistake during a save or something so I uninstalled and reinstalled ARC. I still have the same thing though, here is a screen shot of the six.ezb file once I first open it.
I opened up a Auto Position control and this is what it's actions show
does your example contain frames for the actions?
Are you using the latest version of ARC? As in the one that was updated yesterday/today (depending on time zone)?
The newest example contains the Auto Position Movement Panel which has actions for moving in all directions plus a few others.
It's not the one in the model template folder. It is in the examples folder.
The six.ezb in my examples folder has a lot more than that.
When you go to search the examples, make sure you are clicking the examples button and not "my projects" button. The path should look similar to this.
Lol.. Me and Rich posting at the same time again

@Alan.... The problem is that you and Rich are just too freakishly smart....
@Richard R, I am honored. Thanks.
