8 -Normal RC servo motors have three pins; the black wire is ground (GND), the middle (normally red) wire is +V (4.8V to 6V for standard RC) and the last wire (commonly yellow or white) is the signal wire. The signal wire is meant to receive 5V PWM pulses which are repeated every 20-30 milliseconds. The onboard electronics time these pulses and match them to angular positions. 
8 +Normal RC servo motors have three pins; the black wire is ground (GND), the middle (normally red) wire is VCC (normally 4.8V to 6V for standard RC, higher for specific "high voltage" servos) and the last wire (commonly yellow or white) is the signal wire. The signal wire is meant to receive 5V PWM pulses which are repeated every 20-30 milliseconds. The onboard electronics time these pulses and match them to angular positions. If no RC pulse is received, the servo goes limp.

14 -All three Lynxmotion Smart Servo motors can be used with normal hobby remote control (RC) electronics including remote controls and RC servo controllers. Unlike normal RC servo motors however, the LSS motor configuration can be changed via programming. The current method to change from serial to RC mode is via the [[LSS - Button Menu>>doc:Lynxmotion Smart Servos (LSS).LSS - Button Menu.WebHome||style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"]].
14 +All three Lynxmotion Smart Servo motors can be used with normal hobby remote control (RC) electronics including remote controls and RC servo controllers. Unlike normal RC servo motors however, the Lynxmotion servo's configuration can be changed via programming. There are two methods to change from serial to RC mode: via the [[LSS - Button Menu>>doc:Lynxmotion Smart Servo (LSS).LSS - Button Menu.WebHome||style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"]] or sending a CRC command (explained on the [[communication protocol>>doc:Lynxmotion Smart Servo (LSS).LSS - Communication Protocol.WebHome]] page). Note: Each mode can have the rotation reversed, but clockwise is standard (equivalent to CW1 or CW-1 commands).

37 -The functionality listed below applies to RC mode and can only via serial configuration commands. This means the servo must be connected to a computer (or other device like a microcontroller able to communicate serially) and the servo set to serial mode via the button menu. A detailed explanation of the commands can be found on the [[LSS - Communication Protocol>>doc:Lynxmotion Smart Servos (LSS).LSS - Communication Protocol.WebHome]] page. These configurations are saved within the servo and are retained even if the servo loses power.
