Cailbrated at the factory.
With the Pioneer Arm parameters, several relate to the individual servos, so that the number at the
end of the keyword refers to the joint. Values are a positive decimal or hexadecimal ("0xnn") numbers
from 0 to 255 (0xFF), except speeds, which are constrained from 1 to 127.
For example, to change the home position for joint #3:
> Home3 25
or
> Home3 0x19
