Doc says PROFILE_VELOCITY set is supported, it's not. about dynamixel2arduino HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi @JamesNewton ,
The API does not contain any information about the Profile Velocity, but does have for the Goal Velocity.
Although these two parameters look similar to each other, but they work quite differently.

In order to write the value in Profile Velocity address, you may use writeControlTableItem() as below.

DynamixelShield dxl;
using namespace ControlTableItem;
...
dxl.writeControlTableItem(PROFILE_VELOCITY, 1, 20);

Thank you.

No.

I understand the difference between Profile Velocity and Goal Velocity.

dxl.writeControlTableItem(PROFILE_VELOCITY, 1, 20); throws an error that PROFILE_VELOCITY is not defined for the XC-430 servos. Checking the code shows that PROFILE_VELOCITY is, in fact, NOT defined anywhere.

Have you included the namespace of ControlTableItem as I wrote in the above reply?

using namespace ControlTableItem;

Without it, you'll get an error when trying to use the control table item index.

Ah! Perfect! This was exactly the issue. THANK YOU!
