11 11  The LSS Configuration software ("LSS Config" for short) is intended to provide easy access to the main features and functionality of the [[Lynxmotion Smart Servo Motors>>doc:lynxmotion-smart-servo.WebHome]], as well as providing access to firmware updates.
12 12  
13 13  NOTE: Only one servo should be connected to the software at any time. The servo must be powered correctly and in serial mode. Should your servo NOT be in serial mode, please refer to the [[button menu>>doc:lynxmotion-smart-servo.lss-button-menu.WebHome]].

43 43  The LSS Config software serves as the main software used to update the servo's onboard firmware / programming. An internet connection is needed in order for the software to check if an online update is available. The servo's current firmware version is displayed to the left of the FIRMWARE button. Pressing the button will open a popup window which allows you to select the firmware version to upload to the servo. When checked, the Exp. button will allow experimental versions of the firmware to be displayed in the list. It also allows to load directly from a local file.
44 44  
45 45  Once the OK button is pressed, the software will request if you wish to save your servo's configurations and restore them after the firmware update (see image below). Clicking **Yes** will poll your servo to obtain all of its available settings and which will be restored after a successful firmware update is completed.

If the process does get interrupted, you can still upload firmware to the LSS by going into bootloader mode by holding the button at power up.
