| 10 | |
| 11 | LynxTerm is a free downloadable utility, it makes it easy to quickly test all functionality of the SSC-32 Servo Controller. |
| 12 | |
| 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. |

| 50 | **Size:** 4.29MB((( |
| 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. |

| 66 | |
| 67 | * H2 Sequencer: |
| 68 | ** Offset Registers support added for SSC-32 v2 (Atmega 168). |
| 69 | ** Offset increments by 1 instead of 5. |
| 70 | ** All trackbars are now autofocused. |

| 87 | |
| 88 | * COM port component rolled back from 3.1 to 3.0 (an effort to fix a known Vista bug with Bluetooth dongle issues). |

| 92 | **Version:** v1.06 |
| 93 | **Size: **4.27MB((( |
| 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. |
