280 -Setting a servo's ID in EEPROM is done via the CID command. All servos connected to the same serial bus that have will be assigned that ID. In most situations each servo must be set a unique ID, which means each servo must be connected individually to the serial bus and receive a unique CID number. It is best to do this before the servos are added to an assembly. Numbered stickers are provided to distinguish each servo after their ID is set, though you are free to use whatever alternative method you like. The servo must be RESET or power cycled in order for the new ID to take effect.<div class="wikimodel-emptyline"></div>

507 -EM1 (Enable Motion Profile #1) is the default mode of the LSS and is an easy way to control the servo's position with a single (serial) position command. This mode uses a trapezoidal motion profile which takes care of acceleration, constant speed travel and deceleration. Once the actual position is within a certain value of the target, it switches to a holding algorithm. The LSS commands for Angular Acceleration and Deceleration (AA/CAA/AD/CAD) Angular Stiffness (AS/CAS) and Angular holding stiffness (AH/CAH) affect this motion profile. Modifiers like SD/S and T can be used in EM1.<div class="wikimodel-emptyline"></div>

514 -
515 -This command will disable the built-in trapezoidal motion profile. As such, the servo will move at full speed to the target position using the D/MD action commands. Modifiers like SD/S or T cannot be used in EM0 mode. By default the Filter Position Counter, or "FPC" is active in EM0 mode to smooth out its operation. EM0 is suggested for applications where an external controller will be determining all incremental intermediate positions of the servo's motion, effectively replacing a trajectory manager. To prevent having to send position commands continuously to reach the desired position in EM0/FPC active (FPC >= 2), an internal position engine (IPE) repeats the last position command. Note that in EM0 mode, the servo will effectively always be in status: Holding (if using the query status command).
