Lynxmotion Robot Arms

:cry:
I bought a lynx5 arm ,but it came without wall pack or wiring harness…
I don’t know if i can power it with 9vdc for the servos and the micro?
and How???
:cry:

Most international distributors don’t order the wall pack, and the wiring harnesses were just added a few months ago. You need to provide the servos with 5 to 6vdc at 2amps connected to the VS input. Put the 9vdc battery on the VL input. Hope this helps…

Thanks **Robot Dude **for your fast respond!

Do you mean that I just connect the micro with the 9VDC and it will power the servos, If don’t remove the VL=VS1 jumper?

If no, what can I use to power the servos with 6V?

Should I buy wires or batteries?

Really I appreciate your highly support.

Thanks again.

Nah the 9vdc battery will not power the servos. Not enough current. :frowning: You need to use a 6vdc battery, or suitable power supply. Use a regulated supply though. :wink: Thanks
