Welcome back RoboMasters
It's time for class again
After completing the assembly of the robotic arm and gripper
you can refer to instructional video
Engineer Form Assembly Steps
you still need to install the robotic arm and gripper in the RoboMaster app before it can be used
First we'll install the robotic arm
You'll first need to turn on the robot
Next
open the RoboMaster app and connect it to the robot
Go to Settings
then Extension Module
Robotic Arm
and Install
Ensure the cables of the robotic arm's two servos are not connected to the robot
Then
click Next
Connect the left servo cable with the L-extension cable coming from the M0 port of the motion controller
After the app detects that the servo has been successfully connected
the "Next" button will be displayed
Then click Next
If Next does not appear after connecting the cable
then disconnect the cable
wait five seconds
and reconnect the cable again
Connect the right servo cable to the left servo's cable
After the app detects that the servos have been successfully connected
click Next
Lastly
the robotic arm requires calibration before use
Please note that calibration is required because the angle of each servo in the factory is not completely identical
So after installing the robotic arm
the motion controller needs a point to serve as a reference in order to align the absolute angles of the servos
Push the first link robotic arm backwards to the limit of the servos
Then
push the second link arm downwards to the limit of the servo
Then click to confirm calibration
After installing the robotic arm
you can view the status of the robotic arm on the right side of the Extension Module page
including the left and right servo numbers
as well as the X and Y coordinates of the robotic arm
You can also recalibrate or remove the robotic arm
Note that after removing the robotic arm
the two servos can be controlled independently as separate servos
If you need to change the servo number
you can reinstall the servos in the Extension Module page
Next
we're going to install the gripper
Go to Settings
Extension Module
and Install
Next
connect the extension cable to both the gripper and the cable of the right servo
When the prompt "Gripper connected successfully" is shown
the gripper connection is completed
That's it
You've installed the robotic arm and gripper
