from dxl2 import DynamixelSerialV2

port = DynamixelSerialV2("/dev/ttyUSB0")

# connect before use
port.connect()

info = port.ping(10)

# torque enable
port.write(dxl_id=10, address=64, length=1, value=1)

# move motors 1 and 2 to position 100
port.sync_write(dxl_ids=[1, 2], address=116, length=4, value=100)

# disconnect after use
port.disconnect()

All instructions are available as methods of DynamixelSerialV2 or DynamixelSerialV1 class.
