Sensor Controlled Robot Handling the Servomotor 1 Orientation The photo to the right shows the servomotor facing you. There are two shafts, the one Wider (drive shaft) Narrower (movable shaft) with the wider space is the drive shaft and the one with the narrower space is the movable shaft. ★ When turning the drive shaft by hand, do so very slowly and gently. Excessive pressure when turning may cause damage to the servomotor.

Doggy Robot Completed Doggy Robot Be cautious of cables that could become entangled in the moving parts of the motor and cause the robot to disconnect. Take care when arranging cables. Before operating your robot, check the Assembly Instructions again to confirm your robot has been assembled correctly.
Doggy Robot Operating Your Doggy Robot Install the software from the URL below to setup the Studuino Programming Environment. ★ Proceed to Step 1 when software installation is complete. http://www.artec-kk.co.jp/studuino/ ① ② Connect the USB cable to the PC and the Studuino unit. Refer to 1.3. About Studuino in Studuino Programming Environment Manual for more details. Download the program file DoggyRobot.ipd from the URL below in the ArtecRobo section. http://www.artec-kk.co.
Doggy Robot Operating Your Doggy Robot ⑥ Turn the switch of the battery box on and your robot will start walking. Immediately turn the switch to off if your robot does not begin walking as shown in the picture below. Not doing so may damage the servomotor. If your robot does not move, the servomotor may be in the wrong position or the blocks may be improperly connected. Re-read the Assembly Instructions to make sure that your robot has been assembled correctly.
Doggy Robot Sensor Calibration Some sensors may not function properly after you run the program for the first time. If the sensors are malfunctioning, calibrate the sensor settings. Click the Submenu 1 tab to calibrate the sensors and you will see a box to adjust the range settings. Drag the mouse left or right to adjust the range settings.
