15.1 | 11 | LynxTerm is a free downloadable utility, it makes it easy to quickly test all functionality of the SSC-32 Servo Controller. |

13 | __**This program is legacy and is currently not supported.**__ | ||
14 | |||
15 | **To install:** Just download, unzip, and run the setup (lynx ssc 32 terminal.msi) | ||

21 | **Version: **v1.11 | ||
22 | **Size: **4.29MB((( | ||
23 | **Change Log:** | ||
24 | |||
25 | Same as v1.10, except: | ||
26 | |||
27 | * Issue Corrected: | ||
28 | ** Firmware V2 PO/QP bug patched within Lynxterm (QP returns 255 instead of 0 at startup if PO activated and value > 0) | ||
29 | ** Old PO bug patch removed from H2 Seq, no more problem using PO registers with SSC-32 V2 | ||
30 | * Improvement: | ||
31 | ** COM port communication code now fully protected from exceptions (will avoid some very rare program crash). | ||
32 | * Main form: | ||
33 | ** Pulse trackbar now sends commands with a "S1000" speed limitation. | ||
34 | * Macro: | ||
35 | ** Bigger buttons. | ||
36 | ** Support "$Pause x" instruction, with 0 < x < 65536 ms, insert a pause between instructions | ||
37 | ** Support "$Macro x" instruction, x from 0 to 14, to call another macro (infinite loop not allowed) | ||
38 | * H2 Sequencer: | ||
39 | ** "Link XL/XR" checkbox added to move XL and XR together | ||
40 | ** Auto read Offsets from the SSC-32 V2 registers if detected, else it will use value from saved file. | ||
41 | ** Pulse and Offset trackbars now sends commands with a "S1000" speed limitation. | ||
42 | * Registers: | ||
43 | ** New message asking to read new data from registers if the write button was pressed in the H2 Seq form. | ||
44 | ** "Read" and "Write" buttons disables all objects in the form while performing. | ||
45 | ** "Read" and "Write" buttons performs now firstly a SSC-32 V2 recognition as the ones in H2 Seq form. | ||
46 | ** Pulse and Offset trackbars now sends commands with a "S1000" speed limitation. | ||

51 | **Change Log:** | ||
52 | |||
53 | Same as v1.09, except: | ||
54 | |||
55 | * Issue Corrected: | ||
56 | ** "All = 1500" button no longer resets pulse offsets. | ||
57 | * Registers: | ||
58 | ** "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. | ||

94 | **Change Log:** | ||
95 | |||
96 | * 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. | ||
97 | * Improvement: | ||
98 | ** 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. | ||
