OpenMANIPULATOR Arm



OpenMANIPULATOR Arm First-Time Configuration


After assembling an OpenMANIPULATOR arm, its servos must first be configured properly before it can be used. By default, all the arm motors are set to the same ID (1) and the wrong baud rate, which causes collisions when trying to detect them.

  1. Connect a SINGLE motor (no daisy-chains in the arm) to the OpenCR module and DISCONNECT ALL OTHER MOTORS (the wheel motors!!)
  2. Open up Dynamixel Wizard 2.0 and update the firmware for that motor by following this tutorial. The arm Dynamixel model is XM430-W350, and the wheel motors are XM430-W210.
  3. Scan for connected Dynamixels using the “Scan” button on the top menu. If the scan does not turn up any results, you may need to change the scan options in the "Options" menu. By default, an unconfigured arm motor will have ID 1, be on Protocol 2.0, and have a baud rate of 57600 bps.
  4. Change the ID for the detected motor from 1 to 11/12/13/14/15 (whichever you're doing the procedure for). Click on the “ID” item, and find the ID # you want in the lower right corner. Click it and press “Save”.
  5. Change the baud rate to 1M (if not already 1M). Click on the “Baud Rate (Bus)” item, and find the 1 Mbps option. Click it and press “Save”.
  6. Disconnect the motor (both in the wizard by clicking “Disconnect” up top and physically disconnecting from the board) and repeat the steps for the remaining ones.


Attaching/Detaching the OpenMANIPULATOR Arm


Physical Attachment/Detachment


Follow these steps below:

  1. The arm can be attached and detached by first removing the top layer of the the Turtlebot. There are 10 screws around the perimeter of the top layer that you will need to remove with a Phillips head / cross screwdriver.
  2. Once the top layer of the Turtlebot is loose, disconnect the cable that is attached to the LiDAR. This cable is multi-colored with several pins.
    Note: ONLY remove this LiDAR cable in this step.

    Once the top layer is fully disconnected, flip the top layer upside-down for easy access.
  3. To connect the arm, there are four screws that you will need to insert through the bottom side of the top layer that connect to Dynamixel #11. The exact location of the screws are marked in the picture below. Use an hex/allen key to secure them.

  4. Once the arm is securely attached, thread the cable connected to DynaMIXEL #11 through the top layer (if not already threaded) and attach the other end to the remaining 3-pin slot on the OpenCR board. It should be the open slot adjacent to the already occupied slots.
  5. Reconnect the LiDAR cable and re-screw the top layer onto the robot.

To disconnect the arm, follow the same steps as above, but remove the four screws instead and disconnect the DynaMIXEL.

Updating Firmware and Files


Every time the arm is attached or detached, you will need to reconfigure environment variables and update the OpenCR firmware.

If you are attaching the arm, set the environment variable OPENCR_MODEL=om_with_tb3 and ensure that OPENCR_PORT=/dev/ttyACM0 in the ~/.bashrc file.

Note: You can also set those environment variables in the command line by running:
$ export OPENCR_PORT=/dev/ttyACM0
$ export OPENCR_MODEL=om_with_tb3

Source the file and update the firmware with:

$ source ~/.bashrc
$ cd ~/opencr_update && ./update.sh $OPENCR_PORT $OPENCR_MODEL.opencr


If you are detaching the arm, set the environment variable OPENCR_MODEL=waffle and ensure that OPENCR_PORT=/dev/ttyACM0 in the ~/.bashrc file.

Enter the OpenCR board into firmware recovery mode by pressing and holding SW2, and simultaneously pressing RESET (you will need to remove the top layer of the turtlebot in order to access those OpenCR buttons). If you want to read more about the OpenCR bootloader, please refer to this page in the OpenCR 1.0 manual.

$ source ~/.bashrc

Common Errors During Setup


Firmware Recovery Mode and Device Firmware Update for OpenCR Board


We found the firmware recovery mode not clearly detailed in the Turtlebot3 manual. Here are the steps for firmware recovery:

  1. Push and hold SW2
  2. Press RESET
  3. Release SW2
  4. Arduino code should upload successfully with jump_with_fw

Firmware recovery is different from device firmware update (DFU), where the steps are:

  1. Push and hold BOOT
  2. Press RESET
  3. Release BOOT

Troubleshooting /dev/ttyACM0 Connection Issues


If the /dev/ttyACM0 port isn't found or running bringup on the Pi is hanging:
