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.
