11		-The Lynxmotion Smart Servo (LSS) PRO serial protocol was created in order to be as simple and straightforward as possible from a user perspective ("human readable format"), while at the same time staying compact and robust yet highly versatile. The protocol was based on Lynxmotion's Smart Servo (LSS) protocol, which itself was based on the SSC-32 & SSC-32U RC servo controllers. The LSS PRO series and normal LSS share many of the same commands, but because of higher angular precision, slightly different operation and different features, the two protocols do not fully overlap.
	13	+The Lynxmotion Smart Servo (LSS) serial protocol was created in order to be as simple and straightforward as possible from a user perspective ("human readable format"), while at the same time staying compact and robust yet highly versatile. The protocol was based on Lynxmotion's SSC-32 & SSC-32U RC servo controllers and almost everything one might expect to be able to configure for a smart servomotor is available.

13	13	In order to be able to control each servo individually with commands, the first step should be to assign a different ID number to each servo (see details on the Configure ID, or "CID" command [[here>>doc:||anchor="HIdentificationNumber28ID29"]]). Only the servo(s) which have been configured to a specific ID will act on a command sent to that ID. There is currently no CRC or checksum implemented as part of the protocol.

67	67	There is currently no option to control how fast a servo replies after it has received a query command, therefore when sending a query command to the bus, the controller should be prepared to immediately "listen" for and parse the reply. Sending multiple queries to multiple servos on a bus in fast succession may result in replies overlapping and giving incorrect or corrupt data. As such, the controller should receive a reply before sending a new query command. A reply to the query sent above might be:<div class="wikimodel-emptyline"></div>
