--* [[doc:.lss-flowarm-setup.WebHome]]
++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:
++1. Connect the USB cable to the LSS Adapter board on your robot
++1. Plug the USB connector into the PC
++1. Connect your LSS to the LSS-Adapter with the Lynxmotion cable
++1. Connect the power to the LSS Adapter via the yellow XT60 plug
++1. Power on the robot (On/Off switch)
++1. Start the LSS FlowArm software
++1. Select the type of LSS Arm you are using (3 DoF / 4 DoF)
++1. Select the appropriate COM port from the drop-down list & the baud rate (115200)
++1. The software sends a query to servo ID1 and once a reply is received, it determines connection has been established.
++
++== Connecting via Bluetooth ==
++
++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.

  The timeline is locked by default. This means that frames will automatically run from one to the next – you cannot create space in between. Moving a frame past another one will move it along the order in the timeline. If the timeline is unlocked then you can move frames independently of each other and also create gaps of time in between.
