Habe den Bausatz "JD Humanoid" erhalten und nach Anleitung aufgebaut. Funktioniert alles einwandfrei bis auf Port D7 (Rechter Oberarm). servo ist in Ordnung. Port D7 scheint defekt zu sein. Benutze das offizielle "JD example project" wie im Anleitungsvideo beschrieben. FRAGE: Kann ich einen anderen freien Port anstatt D7 nutzen? Wo kann ich das servo dem Port zuordnen?

ezrobot will be able to assist you for warranty replacement. But you’ll have to contact them through their website. 

The JD robot project uses the Auto Position robot skill. To change any servo, you can edit the Auto Position configuration. 

1) press the configuration (three little dots next to the ?)

2) in the configuration window, press the show ports checkbox 

3) scroll through the list of frames and select stand

4) locate the servo that you wish to change and select it. A dialog window will appear with the servo selection option. 

the project will have to be saved as a new project. You are unable to save to default projects. 

@athena please translate this to German.

ezrobot wird in der Lage sein, Ihnen bei der Garantieersatz zu helfen. Aber Sie müssen sie über ihre Website kontaktieren.

Das JD-Roboterprojekt verwendet die Auto-Position-Roboterfähigkeit. Um einen servo zu ändern, können Sie die Auto-Position-Konfiguration bearbeiten.

1) Drücken Sie die Konfiguration (drei kleine Punkte neben dem ?)

2) Im Konfigurationsfenster aktivieren Sie das Kontrollkästchen "Ports anzeigen"

3) Scrollen Sie durch die Liste der Frames und wählen Sie "Stand"

4) Suchen Sie den Servo, den Sie ändern möchten, und wählen Sie ihn aus. Ein Dialogfenster wird mit der Servoauswahloption angezeigt.

Das Projekt muss als neues Projekt gespeichert werden. Sie können nicht in Standardprojekte speichern.

@DJ Sures: Vielen lieben Dank für die schnelle Hilfe. Das hat funktioniert. Jetzt habe ich den servo "rechter Oberarm" dem Port D11 zugeordnet und schon läuft alles einwandfrei . Der Port D7 an meinem EZ-B v4 ist definitiv defekt.

#DJ Sures Jetzt ist plötzlich ein weiterer Fehler aufgetreten. Plötzlich hat sich der Kopf des JD auf die rechte Endlage gedreht. Er bewegt sich beim Abspielen von Action's nur noch ruckartig. Das servo läßt sich auch mit Hilfe des Skills "Servo-Horizontal" nicht mehr sauber steuern. Kann es sein, dass das servo schon defekt ist? Wie gesagt, der JD ist ganz neu und einen Tag im Betrieb.

That's unfortunate to hear that. I would recommend contacting the manufacturer for support for their product. It sounds like a hardware failure since the EZB controller was already experiencing issues out of the box.
