問題なくご利用いただけます :)

ただし注意点としては、developer edition は Intel Edison を使用する関係上、カスタマイズには本格的な知識が必要となります。
そして、私たちは基本的な機能は実装しユーザに公開しますが、それに関する細かいサポートは提供しない予定です。
(カスタマイズできる範囲があまりにも大きいため、必ずしも有益なアドバイスをすることができないと予想されるためです。)
developer edition の購入に際しては、その点をご容赦,ならびにご検討ください。

# English
Post title in English : Could you tell me about specifications of the developer edition?
===
Those are available without a problem :)

However, To customize the developer edition requires a full-fledged knowledge because it is using Intel Edison,
and We provide basic implementation for it to users, but their support will be not provided from us.
(Its customization contains the large range, so We might be unable to give you any useful advice.)

If you would purchase the developer edition, please consider the points which were described before.

Hi, wuulong

The problem seems to be happen by connecting BLE or scanning peripheral.
Maybe it is going to success by trying following.

Hi, wuulong.

Thanks for reporting the issue, and the method which fixes it.
I never saw a bug like the issue, so I interested in when happen the phenomenon.

Would you tell me that the problem is happening even if to call the methods only in your enviroment?
For example, what is a result when running the code below?
```python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import socket

print socket.gethostname()
print socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname())
```

基本的には、スイッチを入れた状態でまっすぐ立つようであれば初期位置の調整に問題はありません。

より細かい検証には、以下の条件を加味します。
- 「歩き」のモーションを再生してみて、転ばないか
- 「歩き」のモーションを再生してみて、手が腰に過剰に擦り付けられないか
- 「拍手」のモーションを再生してみて、両手が接しパチパチという音がなるか

また、分解せずに初期位置の微調整を行うためのツールとして、「PLEN Check」というものがあります。
For Android → https://github.com/plenproject/plen__PL … d/releases

PC版については微調整中なので、いましばらくお待ちください。(明日にはリリースできるかと思います。)

Post title in English : How can I configure servos home position?
===

There are no problems in tuning of home positions if PLEN is standing straightly.

To tune in more detail, please consider following conditions.
- Even if play "walking" motion, PLEN does not fall to the ground.
- Even if play "walking" motion, PLEN's hands does not rub on her waist.
- By to play a motion, PLEN's hands touch each other, and it sounds "Clap! Clap!".

We provide users a tool that configures PLEN's joints without re-assembling, and its named "PLEN Check".
For Android -> https://github.com/plenproject/plen__PL … d/releases

One for PC is under minor adjustment, so please wait a little.

Hi, Guiller
Thanks for reporting the method which fixes the problem.

By seeing your post, I thought it almost certainly happens by a preprocessing bug in the Arduino IDE.
I will report the issue to Arduino team.

P.S.
I found that the same problem has been posted on the repository.

同様な現象を再現しました。どうやらver.1.6.6で起こるエラーのようですね。

以下のURLより、ver.1.6.5がダウンロードできます。

もしこちらを使用してもエラーがでるようなら、再度ご報告いただけますか?

I got the same error on Arduino IDE ver.1.6.6.

You could get Arduino IDE ver.1.6.5 from following link.

Please ask us again when you have got an error using the IDE.

Is the error also happend even if make a white space between "namespace" and "Utility"?

An example:

Hi, kinose.

1) We are using JST-XH-2 that is provided by J.S.T. Mfg. Co.,Ltd..
2) One is powering Servos. Another one is powering MCU circuits.

#34 Re: Any Questions » Fading LED eyes » 2015-11-03 14:00:04

Hi Tueddy,

PLEN2's headboard has a micro-controller to communicate with other BLE devices.
We have developed a function in the controller that is blinking led like a wink as a sense of fun :)

However, users might not be able to customize it because should use additional SDK released from Bluegiga Inc..
We will publish the firmware, but its customization is not easy than the Arduino, so we are cheering if you want to understand the mechanism.

Please be looking forward ;)

#35 Re: Feature Requests » TTS » 2015-10-22 08:53:15

We get a chance when we get a suggestion from users, so we welcome no matter what someone thinks good or bad.

Thank you for your suggestion, and we are looking forward :)

#36 Re: Any Questions » External EEPROM » 2015-10-20 14:38:47

Hi, Tueddy.

24FC1025 is used. (24FC1025 and 24C04 have the same schematic, so we can divert each other.)
In addition used for motion files, it's using to save the code object like assembler but it had not been opening for users. (We will implement it on firmware version 2.x.)

#37 Re: Customization Hints » testing firmware on blank Arduino Micro » 2015-10-17 23:40:11

Hi,

> ... but in Arduino IDE i cannot set to 2,000,000?
Yes, we use other terminal emulator to communicate with PLEN2. (In japan, the most popular one is Tera Term.)
If you want to use other baud-rate, please change their definition that described before, or write "Serial.begin(xxx);" directly in the setup().
(By the way, the firmware calls Serial.begin() at here.)

If you are interested, let get the additional information why we are using baud-rate 2,000,000.
(Reference: http://wormfood.net/avrbaudcalc.php?pos … detables=1)

#38 Re: Feature Requests » TTS » 2015-10-17 13:20:48

Hi, Tueddy.

Certainly, many robots have the function of talking, but we don't think necessary currently because speech synthesis is not natural now.
We are sorry, but please implement it yourself until we will have had the opportune time x(

#39 Re: Customization Hints » testing firmware on blank Arduino Micro » 2015-10-17 13:00:57

Hi, Tueddy.

Thank you for your cheering! We work for people get more fun through PLEN, always have, always will :)

1.) OK, I'll think about this.

2.) No, "<VI" command has implemented since firmware version 1.1.0. For example, I have installed firmware version 1.2.1 to my PLEN2, and then send the command, I can get json like below.

```json
{
    "device": "PLEN2",
    "codename": "Cytisus",
    "version": "1.2.1"
}
```
I thought that you are not using PLEN2's baud-rate. PLEN2 and other component to communicate with baud-rate of 2,000,000.
(It's defined here: https://github.com/plenproject/plen__fi … .h#L37-L41)

3.) Oh... I had not noticed the typo X(  This bug has fixed currently, please check below.
https://github.com/plenproject/plen__fi … 386213f120

4.) That's right you intended.

#40 Re: Customization Hints » Plen2 with 9g servos » 2015-10-16 16:18:50

OK, we provide more hints :)

Please check following links.

  (Please pay attention to the table on the page below, and get the relation between joint name and index (new).)
- https://github.com/plenproject/plen__fi … pp#L30-L32

It's easy we say the all answer, but you might as well have joined the open-source project, so let you think about this ;)

Hi, Sembot.
Firstly sorry to say i moved the category of this topic, but i thought more accurate that there is the post in this category.

I install an image upload plugin the forum. Please wait for a follow-up :)

#42 Re: Any Questions » Where is the battery? » 2015-10-15 05:24:36

Hi, John.

We use a battery that satisfies AAA x4. And plug in connector described below.
Please pay attention to safety, because servos use a lot of direct current. So we recommend you using the official battery.

Base Board

#43 Re: Any Questions » Motion Editor » 2015-10-07 15:29:41

Hi, Sembot.
Thank you for cheering! We always will work for people get more fun through PLEN :)

Currently there are some software only supports japanese, but will soon translate in english.
At that time we announce on our facebook page. So until then, please using "Motion Editor for Web".

#44 Re: Any Questions » What servos are used? » 2015-10-07 14:57:12

Hi, Paradox.

We use "ASV-15" that was cut excess screwed portions.
Its work is hard moderately but you could buy servos from our shop ;)
