Robot #4 - Motor Issues about robocup HOT 2 CLOSED

Are 111 and 112 the foot sensor codes? If not, I would say motors 1 and 11
have reset their IDs, and will need the numbers changed. I expected this
with 11 as it's a new motor with no joint ID assigned.

Motors id#1 (R_SHOULDER_PITCH) and id#11 (R_HIP_PITCH) of robot #4https://github.com/nubots/robocup/issues/4aren't working.
They're not stuck + i can move them around fine, but they return errors
and dxl_monitor fails to connect to them:

Things I tried:

• recompiled the darwin.a library on the robot (with debug printing turned on in CM730.cpp):
  • showed that motors 1 and 11 were returning RX_TIMEOUT
• using fimrware_installer to reinstall the firmware for the motor board + all motors:
  • motors 1 and 11 were simply skipped during the install. All other motors installed just fine.
• Using roboplus on windows + the USB2Dynamixel adapter to check the motors individually:
  • (I couldn't get the adapter to find any motors at all. I must be doing something wrong there)
• Unplugging both legs before the hip to check whether motor 1 would work while motor 11 wasn't present:
  • motor 1 still failed in dxl_monitor

Fixed, for some reason motor 1 had reverted to baud rate 34 and motor 11 had never been configured and as such was also ID1 baud rate 34. The dxl_monitor obviously only scans at baud rate 1.
