53 -The "STORE OFFSETS" button configures all of the servo offsets (this makes use of the CO command as part of the [[LSS Communication Protocol>>doc:lynxmotion-smart-servo.lss-communication-protocol.WebHome]]).

53 +During the assembly process, if the servo's driving output horn was not rotated (they are shipped with the driving horn centered at 0 degrees), and was connected to the brackets at the correct angle (parallel or perpendicular depending on the servo being assembled), there should not be any servo offset needed and the arm should match what is displayed on screen. However, should the driving horn have rotated and/or the brackets were not connected at optimal angles, the "STORE OFFSETS" button configures the all of the servo offsets (this makes use of the CO command as part of the [[LSS Communication Protocol>>doc:lynxmotion-smart-servo.lss-communication-protocol.WebHome]]). Before pressing the button, be sure to orient the arm as follows (with the gripper closed), and only then click the STORE OFFSETS button.
