	10	+
	11	+In order for the arm to work correctly, each of the IDs assigned to the servos must correspond with what is needed in the software.

	24	+The circular button with "i" in the middle is used to overlay useful information
	25	+
	26	+**Gear ratio**
	27	+
	28	+The gear ratio toggle (per servo) is implemented for BETA testers only.
	29	+
	30	+**Teach**
	31	+
	32	+The "Teach" button allows offsets to be stored and uploaded. Press the "Teach" button once, then move the arm physically to the same position as what is shown on screen. Press the "Store offsets" button to change the offsets.

	34	+**Units**
	35	+
	36	+Units can be toggled between Metric or Imperial

	52	+**Arm Configuration**
	53	+
	54	+The arm shown on screen is based on the assembly guide. BETA testers have been encouraged to use the 3:1 gear ratio in the shoulder and as such should have toggled switch 1 in the header.
	55	+
	56	+The aesthetics of the arms will be changing for the final / release version of the LSS Flowarm software.

	70	+The gripper and wrist rotate can be controlled from this menu
	71	+
	72	+**End Effector Position**
	73	+
	74	+The position of the end effector can be controlled either by manually entering the information for R (radius), or x,y,z coordinate, or using the arrows.
