83 83  Using the LSS Adapter Board is fairly simple and user-friendly. The configuration switch SW1 on the board allows the user to select one of the following three communication methods. A communication mode is chosen by sliding the switch to the desired position on the board. For example, for USB communication, slide the switch to "USB". The two XBEE to USB jumpers should NOT be in place in any communication mode except for the "USB Explorer" feature (servos won’t be recognized if the jumpers are present). The intended uses include:

85 85  * Arduino microcontroller with shield compatibility (ex. Arduino Uno)
86 -* Mini USB (ex: computer, laptop, Raspberry Pi)
86 +* USB Type-C (ex: computer, laptop, Raspberry Pi)
87 87  * Wireless module with XBee footprint (Bluetooth Bee, WiFi Bee etc.)

138 138  To use the LSS Adapter Board with a standard computer, laptop or Raspberry Pi through USB, the switch SW1 should be set to "USB" mode. This configuration allows communication with the LSS actuators by sending serial commands from a USB host device via the FTDI chip. When USB is selected on the communication switch, the FTDI Rx is connected to the LSS actuator's Tx and FTDI Tx is connected to the LSS actuator's Rx. The XBEE-USB jumpers do NOT need to be in place.
