7 -The Lynxmotion Smart Servo (LSS) Adapter Board is an electronic board which allows for easy configuration and control of the Lynxmotion Smart Servos. The board includes a variety of features and functionality and provides power distribution via six LSS six connectors. The board is intended to be powered from a LiPo battery through the on-board male XT60 connector, or with a wall adapter with a female XT60 connector. There are many ways to interface with this board, as described below.
