The XR1 Mainboard standard wiring diagram serves as a foundational blueprint embraced by the robotics builder community, offering a comprehensive guide for integrating electronic components within their projects, such as the XR1 build project. While enthusiasts retain the flexibility to devise custom wiring configurations tailored to their specific needs, the XR1 standard provides a reliable framework that many adhere to. It streamlines the assembly process and fosters interoperability among different projects, ensuring smoother collaboration and troubleshooting within the community. By adhering to these defaults, builders can leverage collective wisdom and best practices, accelerating the development of innovative robotics applications, including those centered around the XR1 platform.

This diagram illustrates the official connection layout for the XR1 SD Drive and MP6050 Sensor to the XR1 mainboard and MEGA 2560 drivers. Kindly adhere to this diagram to ensure compliance with our community standards.

Kevin Tuber has crafted a straightforward yet powerful Python script designed for swift servo testing and calibration assistance. This offering comprises two files: an Arduino file for uploading onto your MEGA 2560 Pro and a Python 3 script that generates a user-friendly GUI for servo manipulation. For those seeking a standalone application, Servo Orchestra presents a comprehensive solution, orchestrating control over all the servos on your XR1 main board.

Thess arduino code scripts, developed by our team, simplifies testing for both MEAGS 12V servo banks and 6V servo banks, ensuring all your servos are operational. It's essential to run this script first after assembling your XR1 Mani boards.

Here's a guide to assist you in converting a standard 150kg servo by incorporating feedback, allowing it to be connected to the feedback board. Our aim is to simplify the process for you, enabling you to take the DIY approach and access this valuable additional data effortlessly. Presented by the Robotics Builder community, we proudly present the "XR1 Servo Feedback Hack for Dummies." Dive in and enjoy the journey!
