The factory default has no first position value stored in EEPROM and therefore upon power up, the servo remains limp until a position (or hold command) is assigned. FP and FD are different in that FP is used for RC mode only, whereas FD is used for smart mode only.

FP and FD are different in that FP is used for RC mode only, whereas FD is used for smart mode only. If a first position pulse is assigned, the servo will move to that angle and hold there for up to 2 seconds before going limp should a new pulse not be received.

559 +Important note:** **To revert from RC mode back to serial mode, the [[LSS - Button Menu>>doc:Lynxmotion Smart Servo (LSS).LSS - Button Menu.WebHome]] is required. Should the button be inaccessible (or broken) when the servo is in RC mode and the user needs to change to serial mode, a 5V constant HIGH needs to be sent to the servo's Rx pin (RC PWM pin), ensuring a common GND and wait for 30 seconds. Normal RC PWM pulses should not exceed 2500 milliseconds. After 30 seconds, the servo will interpret this as a desired mode change and change to serial mode. This has been implemented as a fail safe.
