  7. Please describe the issue in detail
    I want to use XC430-W240-T with the default firmware for OpenCR but I didn't move.

First, I used the default XL430-W250. I followed the instruction to set up the OpenCR from this link https://emanual.robotis.com/docs/en/platform/turtlebot3/opencr_setup/#opencr-setup, after this I was able to to the test by pressing SW1 and SW2 and both motor moves.

However, when I swap both motors with two XC430-W240-T and run the test, it won' move. I tried connecting one XL and one XC, in this case, only the XL works.

Any recommendations and solutions are welcome!

  1. How can we reproduce the issue?
    Simply follow the setup guide for OpenCR, then connect XC430-W240-T motors.

Hi @AndrewWijaya888
Before you can use any DYNAMIXEL for TurtleBot3, the DYNAMIXEL has to be configured first.

Hi @ROBOTIS-Will
Thank you for your help.

I have followed the manual you sent me, but I encountered a problem as you can see below.
Dynamixel Problem

I tried inputting 3 and 4 for testing, but it shows "Test Motor Left... dxl motor ID:1 not found". How do I solve this?

For clarity, here is my connection setup for the OpenCR and Dynamixel.

Hi @AndrewWijaya888

When setting up the DYNAMIXEL, please connect only one module at a time.
Connecting multiple DYNAMIXEL modules will cause communication collision.

Hi @ROBOTIS-Will,

This solves the problem, the motor is working now. Thank a lot for your help!
