I already checked all of the parameter such as baud rate, id and USB connection etc... There is no problem! And I already tried all of the way which I can found online, but those are not useful too. I get the following error message. If you have had some experience about this problem, Please help me...

What dynamixels are you running? and have you tried the dynamixel_motor package I found the dynamixel_controllers one to be unreliable with the AX12 dynamixel

Thanks for your reply. I already tried that, but It is still not working. My motor is MX-106

Hello :)

ROBOTIS provides official opensource repository as ROBOTIS-GIT?

In this repository, you can find Dynamixel-Workbench to control all series of DYNAMIXELS. Because it is official package for DYNAMIXEL, you can get a proper solution when you faced some problems.

This is WIKI page for DYNAMIXEL and introduced packages.

WIKI for DYNAMIXEL

WIKI for Dynamixel-Workbench

Enjoy with it!

I believe that this should be a comment instead of an answer as this doesn't answer the question. Instead, it just points to a wiki and GitHub repo.

did you end up resolving this?

I'm also trying to interface moveit to my real robot i.e RCS-6. I'm using hubby HS422 servo motor. I tried dynamixel_motor pkg but i also got the same error. Can i use dynamixel_motor pkg for my servo motor?

There are possibly three reasons due to which this can occur

  1. Either the id is more than the set range
  2. Or the baud rate is different
  3. the motor's firmware is not working properly

try this :

  • check the id of motor using single manager gui package from dynamixel workbench and confirm it is not set to be more than 25.
  • check the communication baud rate it should match 57600
    • if both of the above are fine then do a firmware recovery using R+ manager
