Hi all I am using ros indigo and ubuntu 14.04. I have Phantomx Pincher arm connected to the computer via FTDI USB cable.

I clone arbotix_ros and I did catkin_make properly.

BUT I can not detect my servos (dynamixel ax-12a) thru arbotix-m, I am getting the following output,

anyone can help me please ??

I even tried arbotix_gui I got the window but the servos don't move.

    imr@IMR-PC:~$ sudo chmod 777 /dev/ttyUSB0    
    [sudo] password for imr: 
     imr@IMR-PC:~$ arbotix_terminal

I figured it out that I have to upload ros.ino to the arbotix-m board after making sure that the baud rate should be Serial.begin(115200);
