Hi,

I write the following code to subscribe . How can I get the current pos data.

import rospy
from dynamixel_msgs import JointState


def callback(data):
    print "callback"
    print data


def listener():
    rospy.init_node('starter', anonymous=True)
    rospy.Subscriber("/joint6_controller/state", current_pos, callback)
    rospy.spin()


if __name__ == '__main__':
    listener()

In the callback

current_position = data.current_pos

should do the trick. Also note, that this:

rospy.Subscriber("/joint6_controller/state", current_pos, callback)

should be this:

rospy.Subscriber("/joint6_controller/state", JointState, callback)

The dynamixel controller Joint State message documentation is here. If you want to access any other member, just call "data.[member name goes here]".

Hope this helps.
