Struggling here…
I have a Phoenix Hexapod with a SSC-32U control board linked to a Arduino Meg 2560 running Phoenix code (downloaded from LynxMotion)
I have a SSC-32U set to 115200 baud and I assume wired correctly.

I did have to change one section in the Botboarduino code
DBGSerial.println("!!!"); changed to DBGSerial.println("***");
The !!! drops the mega into monitoring and hangs the upload.
I’ve tested the PS2 wiring seperatly and it works…
I’m using the TX0 serial ports on the mega.
They won’t talk…
SSC-32 has been tested with the control software… Everything works by USB to PC.
