11 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.

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.
