Description
LynxTerm is a free downloadable utility, it makes it easy to quickly test all functionality of the SSC-32 Servo Controller.
This program is legacy and is currently not supported.
To install: Just download, unzip, and run the setup (lynx ssc 32 terminal.msi)
Versions
Download: ltrm111.zip Version: v1.11 Size: 4.29MBChange Log: Same as v1.10, except: - Issue Corrected:
- Firmware V2 PO/QP bug patched within Lynxterm (QP returns 255 instead of 0 at startup if PO activated and value > 0)
- Old PO bug patch removed from H2 Seq, no more problem using PO registers with SSC-32 V2
- Improvement:
- COM port communication code now fully protected from exceptions (will avoid some very rare program crash).
- Main form:
- Pulse trackbar now sends commands with a "S1000" speed limitation.
- Macro:
- Bigger buttons.
- Support "$Pause x" instruction, with 0 < x < 65536 ms, insert a pause between instructions
- Support "$Macro x" instruction, x from 0 to 14, to call another macro (infinite loop not allowed)
- H2 Sequencer:
- "Link XL/XR" checkbox added to move XL and XR together
- Auto read Offsets from the SSC-32 V2 registers if detected, else it will use value from saved file.
- Pulse and Offset trackbars now sends commands with a "S1000" speed limitation.
- Registers:
- New message asking to read new data from registers if the write button was pressed in the H2 Seq form.
- "Read" and "Write" buttons disables all objects in the form while performing.
- "Read" and "Write" buttons performs now firstly a SSC-32 V2 recognition as the ones in H2 Seq form.
- Pulse and Offset trackbars now sends commands with a "S1000" speed limitation.

Download: ltrm110.zip Version: v1.10 Size: 4.29MBChange Log: Same as v1.09, except: - Issue Corrected:
- "All = 1500" button no longer resets pulse offsets.
- Registers:
- "Read" button improved. Now pressing "Read" tests to see if EEPROM is initialized; if not, it performs a "RDFLT" command (like pressing the "Default" button). See SSC-32 manual for more about registers and RDFLT command.

Download: ltrm109.zip Version: v1.09 Size: 4.28MBChange Log: Same as v1.08, except: - H2 Sequencer:
- Offset Registers support added for SSC-32 v2 (Atmega 168).
- Offset increments by 1 instead of 5.
- All trackbars are now autofocused.

Download: ltrm108.zip Version: v1.08 Size: 4.28MBChange Log: Same as v1.07, except: - Registers support for SSC-32 v2 (Atmega 168).
|
Download: ltrm107.zip Version: v1.07 Size: 4.27MBChange Log: Same as v1.06, except: - COM port component rolled back from 3.1 to 3.0 (an effort to fix a known Vista bug with Bluetooth dongle issues).
- Terminal panel autofocus system removed.
|
Download: ltrm106.zip Version: v1.06 Size: 4.27MBChange Log: - Firmware update process now recognizes new SSC-32 v3 (based on Atmega 168), and firmware version is checked before updating to ensure the correct firmware version is used.
- Improvement:
- LynxTerm's full installshield no longer includes the "Params.ini" file (Com port parameters), which avoids overwriting the settings from a previous installation. If this file is missing, the program will rebuild it automatically with default values. Entering the Firmware form now detects the SSC-32's Firmware version again instead of using the one stored upon connection, in order to show up to date information.
|
Download: ltrm105.zip Version: v1.05 Size: 4.27MBChange Log: - Minor aesthetic changes. New "All = 0" button to disable all servos at once. New "Timeout" button, as in RIOS and SEQ. Horizontal channel (pin) chooser hanging bug fixed. Offsets "QP" value bug fixed.
|
Download: ltrm104.zip Version: v1.04 Size: 4.24MBChange Log: - "All = 1500" sets all 32 servos to 1500uS. Long macro word-wrap bug fixed.
|
Download: ltrm103.zip Version: v1.03 Size: 4.24MBChange Log: - Added support for multiple Hexapod config files. Fixed several communication bugs.
|
Download: ltrm101.zip Version: v1.01 Size: 4.24MBChange Log: - Added Pulse-width Offset (PO) command support.
