Can't connect SSC-32U Lynxmotion Servo Controller

Hello, I’m trying to control my servos through SSC-32U Servo Sequencer Utility however when I choose the port it is on it says “Com port timed out”. When i connect the USB the RX and TX LED’s flash yellow and when I power it, the PWR LED is blue.

Hey @Rigster!

@scharette wrote a useful guide on how to connect your SSC-32U to flowbotics-based software. You can find it here: Troubleshooting - Connecting to Flowarm 4

If this does not work, please provide me pictures of your setup including the wiring. I would also like to know the specifications of your power supply in terms of current and voltage.

Hey @Rigster
Welcome to the RobotShop community! :slight_smile:

That is a great place to start! Even though that guide is for FlowArm, most of it applies to other SSC-32U related software.

This would most likely be a baud rate issue (software & hardware are mismatched). Check step 3 of the guide for details.
