How to get MCB firmware and burn it again

[Shingo Kitagawa]

Dear PR2 users,

I'm Shingo Kitagawa at JSK robotics lab, University of Tokyo.

We want to burn the MCB firmware again on our MCB, but does anyone know how to do it?

I remember that there are pages about how to burn the firmware in ROS wiki, but I cannot get there.

Sincerely,

Hello,

I replaced some casters of PR2 many years ago and I flashed the firmware on the casters using the `motorconf` command.

I left the work log on Github Issues page:

https://github.com/jsk-ros-pkg/jsk_robot/issues/854

If you have any questions, please ask, I would be happy to help with anything which I remember.

Dear, Mr. Furuta,

Thank you for the quick response.

We tried motorconf command with our PR2's laser_tilt_motor_mount MCB, but motorconf command cannot find the MCB.

We opened PR2 and found that the ether port LED of MCB does not blink even if MCB is connected to ethercat hub.

Then, we think two possibility; one is that MCB hardware is broken, second is MCB firmware is somehow erased.

So, we want to know how to burn MCB firmware to a MCB.

motorconf command is, in my understandings, overwriting the motor board's name and not burning the firmware.

Anyway, thank you for your reply.
