11 -The LSS Power Hub provides a simple solution to supply power to and communicate with the smart servos. It is also a useful tool to split the LSS bus from one servo to two or three while allowing these servos to be powered separately. The Power Hub can be mounted directly to the servos.
11 +The Lynxmotion (LSS) - LED module is intended to add lighting to your servo erector set (SES) v2 project. The module is meant to be connected to the standard mounting of an Lynxmotion Smart Servo (LSS) Motor and can be added to the serial bus. Unlike the LSS which can be operated over a range of input voltages, this LED module is meant to operate exclusively at 12V. The module can be powered one of  two ways where the onboard switch selects which of the two sources powers the LED:

13 +* Option 1: Four-pin LSS bus (Tx, GND, 12V, Rx)

18 +* Bright cool white LED
19 +* On / Off switch (act as an isolator for different power input as well)
