1.

Set the Dual USB adapter HS switch to Serial mode, connect the Black-and-White Extension
Cable, and then plug it into theUSB port of your personal computer.When connected to the USB
port in ICS mode, the Dual USB Adapter HS
LED lights Green.

T

he COM number is same as that used in Setting Servo IDs.

● Dual USB Adapter HS COM Conﬁrmation

KO Driver is driver software that enables Windows OS to recognize Kondo Kagaku s USB adaptor.
This allows the servos and robot to communicate with the PC via a USB connection.

In the following, adjustments are made to the robot using a computer. When all the processes are
completed, the robot will begin to walk. Conduct the processes by following the procedures below.

▼ Process procedures

Connecting with PC

  ■  Set the Dual USB adapter HS switch to Serial mode
     Connect the Dual USB adaptor HS to the PC
  ■  Install the HTH4 (HeartToHeart4) motion creation software
     Connect the robot to the PC
  ■  Turn on the robot

Run motion

  ■  Adjust the trim
     Adjust the posture for bilateral symmetry with the robot in the upright position.
  ■  Run the sample motion
     Enable the low voltage motion setting to prevent over discharge, and run the motion.

Serial mode

LED：GREEN

HTH4 (HeartToHeart4) is used to adjust the robot. The software is exclusively for RCB-4HV/RCB-4mini

(referred to as “RCB-4” below) and has been designed to make it easy for anyone to control the robot.

Using this software allows you to make full use of the functions needed to freely operate the robot,

including the neutral position check (checks that parts have been assembled correctly with the servos

in the origin (neutral) position), basic positioning adjustment (trim adjustment), motion creation, sensor

settings, etc.

■ Install HeartToHeart4 Software

To install the software, double-click the "setup.exe" in the HeartToHeart4 folder in the KXR folder to

automatically run the setup program. Continue the installation process as instructed by the setup pro-

gram.

1. Software Installation

After completing the software installation, click the “HeartToHeart4” icon in the Windows Start Menu

or on the Desktop to run the software.

When running HeartToHeart4 for the first time, a HeartToHeart4 folder is created in the My Document

folder of your personal computer. Project files created must be saved in the “Projects" sub-folder in

this folder.

2. Software Activation

Connect the Serial Extension Cable to the Dual USB Adapter HS, and connect the other end to the

port connector at the top of the KXR backpack.

3. Connecting Dual USB Adapter HS to the Robot
