7-2. Assembling RF Remote Control Using ZIG-100
Zigbee Module Zigbee, just like Bluetooth, is a frequently used PAN(Personal Area Network)
communication technology. Zigbee module ZIG-100 is a communication module of
Bioloid and as such, with its communication technology, it enables Bioloid to
transmit the data and control the robots in various ways.
CM-5 and ZIG-100
By default CM-5, the central control device of Bioloid, does not have ZIG-100.
Thus, for the IR wireless communication between Bioloid, you need to have ZIG-
100 attach to the CM-5. In order to attach it, you need to dissemble CM-5 and
solder the ZIG-100 on Zigbee circuit board, as shown on below pictures. You need
at least two sets of CM-5s and ZIG-100 modules to send and receive data.
