Setting Up the Environment New servos must have an ID assigned to them before being included in an assembly. NOTE: The Bolide Y-01 model was used for the following procedure. The illustrations may differ from the model you purchased. Setup MCU Board Connect the MCU board to your computer.
Setting Up the Environment Installing the Motor Editor Driver The following instructions guide you through the complete installation of the driver required for the Servo Tool. In Windows, go to Control Panel then to Device Manager to make sure the USB cable is connected.
Setting Up the Environment Click (Upload) to upload the codes. After uploading, the message Done uploading displays. Check that no errors display at the bottom of the frame. Connecting Smart Servo Connect one end of a cable to the MCU board and the other end to the smart servo. NOTE: Make sure there is only one smart servo connected to the MCU board.
Setting Up the Servo Tool Installing Servo Tool Overview The XYZrobot Servo Tool is designed specifically to configure an ID for a new servo. Prior to installation, you will need to have the Adruino software and the Bolide driver code installed on your computer system and the Bolide board, respectively.

Registering an ID Overview The default ID for a new servo is 1. Use the Servo Tool to configure the correct servo ID you wish to replace the existing ID. Detecting the Smart Servo Before you open the Servo Tool, it is necessary to connect the MCU board and computer through a USB cable.
Registering an ID Configuring an ID Enter the correct servo ID in the ID field. Click Set under Parameter description. The LEDs will blink to indicate a new ID is being configured for the connected servo. Click OK to confirm. Validating the Servo ID Finally, assembly the new smart servo to the correct position.
Troubleshooting I can’t connect my MCU board to the PC. Open Device Manager in Windows. When the product is connected to the PC, please check whether the connected device’s port is detected. If the port is not detected, you may need to install an FTDI serial driver. If you have problems with other products, or are unable to solve the problem with the instructions above, please contact your regional manager.
