DYNAMIXEL

AX-12

Address 0x20,0x21

Moving Speed. Sets the angular velocity of the output moving to the Goal Position.

Setting this value to its maximum value of 0x3ff moves the output with an angular

velocity of 114 RPM, provided that there is enough power supplied (The lowest velocity

is when this value is set to 1. When set to 0, the velocity is the largest possible for the

supplied voltage, e.g. no velocity control is applied.)

Address 0x24,0x25

Present Position. Current angular position of the Dynamixel actuator output.

Address 0x26,0x27 Present Speed. Current angular velocity of the Dynamixel actuator output.

Address 0x28,0x29 Present Load. The magnitude of the load on the operating Dynamixel actuator. Bit 10 is

the direction of the load.

Load Value

Load Direction = 0 : CCW Load, Load Direction = 1: CW Load

Address 0x2A

Present Voltage. The voltage currently applied to the Dynamixel actuator. The value is

10 times the actual voltage. For example, 10V is represented as 100 (0x64).

Address 0x2B

Present Temperature. The internal temperature of the Dynamixel actuator in Degrees

Celsius.

Address 0x2C

Registered Instruction. Set to 1 when an instruction is assigned by the REG_WRITE

command. Set to 0 after it completes the assigned instruction by the Action command.

Address 0x2E

Moving. Set to 1 when the Dynamixel actuator is moving by its own power.

Address 0x2F

Lock. If set to 1, only Address 0x18 to 0x23 can be written to and other areas cannot.

Once locked, it can only be unlocked by turning the power off.

Address 0x30,0x31

Punch. The minimum current supplied to the motor during operation. The initial value is

set to 0x20 and its maximum value is 0x3ff.

Endless Turn

If both values for the CW Angle Limit and the CCW Angle Limit are set to 0, an Endless

Turn mode can be implemented by setting the Goal Speed. This feature can be used for

implementing a continuously rotating wheel.
