   • L2 + A
   • L2 + A
   • L2 + B
   • L1 + L2 + Start
3. Connect the LAN cable to the robot and make sure you can ping the motor controller ping 192.168.123.10
4. Suspend the robot in the air
5. Run python deploy.py while the robot is suspended in the air
6. While suspended, please wait for the robot to reach a standing pose (2-3 Seconds) and then slowly put the robot back on the ground
7. Do not operate the joystick or the robot until the counter on the screen reaches 2300, after the counter reaches 2300 you can move the robot around.
