71 71  To use the LSS Adapter Board with an Arduino Board, the switch should be on **position 1**. This configuration allows controlling LSS Servos from an Arduino Board and can be used to build autonomous or semi-autonomous robots. The adapter is shield compatible, therefore it can be stacked on top of an Arduino Board using Arduino stacking headers or male-to-male stacking pins. When Arduino (position 1) is selected on the communication switch, the Arduino Rx serial pin (digital 0) is connected to the LSS Servo's Tx pin and Arduino Tx serial pin (digital 1) is connected to the LSS Servo's Rx pin. This way, the Arduino communicates with the LSS Servo through the LSS Adapter Board. By default, the Arduino is powered through the LSS Adapter Board, if the Arduino is powered separately, cut the solder jumper "Vin cut" on the bottom of the LSS Adapter Board.

83 83  To use the LSS Adapter Board with an XBee Module, the switch should be on **position 2**. This configuration allows controlling LSS Servos wirelessly with an XBee/Bluetooth Bee/Wifi Bee module. When XBee (position 2) is selected on the communication switch, the XBee Rx serial pin is connected to the LSS Servo's Tx pin and the XBee Tx serial pin is connected to the LSS Servo Rx pin. This way, the Bee module communicates directly with the LSS Servos through the adapter.
