setGoalVelocity

Description

This function controls velocity(wheel mode speed) of DYNAMIXEL.

Syntax

  • setGoalVelocity(id, value, unit)

Parameters

  • id : ID of a specific DYNAMIXEL. Data type : unsigned int8
  • value : Goal Velocity value in raw value(default) or RPM or percentage. Data type : float
  • unit : Types of value. Data type : unsigned int8
    • For raw value : UNIT_RAW (default)
    • For RPM value : UNIT_RPM
    • For Percentage value : UNIT_PERCENT

Returns

  • True(1) on success.
  • False(0) on failure.

Example

  const int DXL_DIR_PIN = 2;
  Dynamixel2Arduino dxl(Serial1, DXL_DIR_PIN);
  dxl.setGoalVelocity(1, 100); //use default raw value
  dxl.setGoalVelocity(2, 10.5, UNIT_RPM); //use RPM
  dxl.setGoalVelocity(3, 15.0, UNIT_PERCENT); //use percentage (-100 ~ 100 %)
