This value indicates present voltage that is being supplied. For
more details, please refer to the
2. 4. 44. Present Temperature(146)
This value indicates internal temperature of Dynamixel. For
more details, please refer to the
2. 4. 45. Indirect Address, Indirect Data
Indirect Address and Indirect Data are useful when accessing
two remote addresses in the Control Table as sequential
addresses. Sequential addresses increase Instruction Packet
efficiency. Addresses that can be defined as Indirect Address is
limited to RAM area(Address 64 ~ 661). If specific address is
allocated to Indirect Address, Indirect Address inherits
features and properties of the Data from the specific Address.
Property includes Size(Byte length), value range, and Access
property(Read Only, Read/Write). For instance, allocating
65(Address of LED) to Indirect Address 1(168), Indirect Data
1(224) can perform exactly same as LED(65).
Example 1
Allocating Size 1 byte LED(65) to Indirect Data
1(224).
1. Indirect Address 1(168) : change the value to ‘65’ which is
the address of LED.
2. Set Indirect Data 1(224) to ‘1’ : LED(65) also becomes ‘1’
and LED is turned on.
3. Set Indirect Data 1(224) to ‘0’ : LED(65) also becomes ‘0’
and LED is turned off.
Example 2
Allocating Size 4 byte Goal Position(116) to Indirect
Data 2(225), 4 sequential bytes have to be allocated.
1. Indirect Address 2(170) : change the value to ‘116’ which is
the first address of Goal Position.
2. Indirect Address 3(172) : change the value to ‘117’ which is
the second address of Goal Position.
3. Indirect Address 4(174) : change the value to ‘118’ which is
the third address of Goal Position.
4. Indirect Address 5(176) : change the value to ‘119’ which is
the fourth address of Goal Position.
5. Set 4 byte value ‘1,024’ to Indirect Data 2 : Goal
Position(116) also becomes ‘1024’ and Dynamixel moves.
