Can someone post close up pics of where the jaw mounts to the arm of the servo? I am using a ball/cap- got the ball ON the inside of the jaw- cap on the arm, but it just doesn't seem right.
Thanks!

Lindberg...

Also- a pic of the wiring coming off the SSC-32 to the Cat5 jack would be helpful...

I can't take a pic right now my hubby has the camera and he is out of town.so i had to borrow this pic its is a bucky but on the lindberg skull put it as close to this point on the inside as you can..
The Jaw ball joint goes as follows:

Inside either side of the jaw depending on how you put the servo plate in




Captain jack will have to make you pic of the wiring Sorry

I talked to Jack- he explained the wiring for me. I'll let you know if I have more questions.
Thanks!'

oh boy, soo many questions!

I am using a walwart to power this thing up. I'm really confused- been reading the thread over and over- still not getting it. My wallwart is 6v DC 2.0A max. Is that ok for the SSC-32 to run off of?

Also- I assume I plug this into the VL power inputs on the board- NOT the VS1 or VS2, right?

Lastly- I know that you need the 115k baud rate- how do I set the jumpers to do that? I see the ABCD and jumpers, and the + and - pins... how do I put the jumpers exactly?

Any other jumpers or things I need to do before I attempt the power up?

Man, any help you guys can give is VERY appreciated!

OH- I am just using 4 servos right now (1 skull, lindberg, HS425BBs).
Thanks!

the power supply gets hook to the vs1 just dont cut any thing off the cord that looks like a covered battrie that is a power reducer.
I dont have a board at the momment to look at to tell you how to set the jumpers maybe CJS can help you there.

but the power supply cord has a positive side and a negitive side to the cord. feel the cord and the positive side has a ridge in it. and the negitive side is smooth make sure you hook it up the right way so you dont burn the board.

Specter,

I don't have the ssc-32 board (yet) so I can't say anything with any authority, but I did look at the user's manual, which I found here:

http://www.lynxmotion.com/images/data/ssc-32.pdf

It looks like vs-l is to power the board itself (logic), vs-1 is for servo power on servos 0-15, and vs-2 is for servo power on servos 16-32.

It looks like there are two sets of baud rate jumpers/pins. For 115k baud, you would put jumpers on both sets of pins.

Good luck. Get this thing finished, and post us some video!
