42 +The simplest way to connect is directly using the [[LSS-Adapter>>doc:servo-erector-set-system.ses-electronics.ses-modules.lss-adapter-board.WebHome]] (or any RS232 to USB interface). Here are the steps you need to follow in order to set this up. Follow the steps below:
44 44  
44 +1. Connect the USB cable to the LSS Adapter board on your robot
45 +1. Plug the USB connector into the PC
46 +1. Connect your LSS to the LSS-Adapter with the Lynxmotion cable
47 +1. Connect the power to the LSS Adapter via the yellow XT60 plug
48 +1. Power on the robot (On/Off switch)
49 +1. Start the LSS FlowArm software
50 +1. Select the type of LSS Arm you are using (3 DoF / 4 DoF)
51 +1. Select the appropriate COM port from the drop-down list & the baud rate (115200)
52 +1. The software sends a query to servo ID1 and once a reply is received, it determines connection has been established.
53 +
54 +== Connecting via Bluetooth ==
55 +
56 +If you have purchased a Bluetooth module which is in XBee format, ensure to have the right baud rate on your bluetooth adapter, the default is 115 200 for the LSS.
