This relates the desired angle with an RC standard PWM pulse and is further explained in the SSC-32 and SSC-32U manuals found on Lynxmotion.com. Without any modifications to configuration considered, and a ±90.0 degrees standard range where 1500 microseconds is centered, a pulse of 2334 would set the servo to 165.1 degrees.

  Using the CSD command sets the servo's maximum speed which is saved in EEPROM. In the example above, the servo's maximum speed will be set to 45rpm. When the servo is powered on (or after a reset), the CSD value is used. Note that CSD and CSR are effectively the same, but allow the user to specify the speed in either unit. The last command (either CSR or CSD) is what the servo uses for that session.

--The servo's rigidity can be thought of as (though not identical to) a damped spring in which the rigidity value affects the stiffness and embodies how much, and how quickly the servo tried keep the requested position against changes.
++{More information coming soon}
--A positive value of "rigidity":
++Ex:
--* The more torque will be applied to try to keep the desired position against external input / changes
--* The faster the motor will reach its intended travel speed and the motor will decelerate faster and nearer to its target position
++{Description coming soon}
--A negative value on the other hand:
++Query Angular Acceleration (**QAA**)
--* Causes a slower acceleration to the travel speed, and a slower deceleration
--* Allows the target position to deviate more from its position before additional torque is applied to bring it back
++Ex:
--The default value is zero and the effect becomes extreme by -4, +4. There are no units, only integers between -4 to 4. Greater values produce increasingly erratic behavior.
++{Description coming soon}
--Ex: #5R-2<cr>
++Configure Angular Acceleration (**CAA**)
--This reduces the rigidity to -2 for that session, allowing the servo to deviate more around the desired position. This can be beneficial in many situations such as impacts (legged robots) where more of a "spring" effect is desired. Upon reset, the servo will use the value stored in memory, based on the last configuration command.
