Lynx Robot Arm Config software does not recognize robot arm

[huskerfan]

I have an AL5B arm, Lynx Robot Arm Config recognized the robot arm as SSC 32-V2.03 XE. However, when I tried to use it with the Dual Lynx Arm Controller, the program did not recognize the robot arm, showing “Not Connected”. Any help?

Are you able to get the arm to work with Lynxterm or any other software?

So the Lynx Robot Arm sees the SSC-32. So question is, what Comm port is assigned to your SSC-32?
There have been several threads on this, including: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=8619&p=86333

My guess is that this Flowstone program was setup to try to find the SSC-32 board over a small number of comm ports (it just simply ouputs a request to each comm port hoping there is an SSC-32 there that will respond…

So if it were me, I would see if I could reassign the comm port of the SSC-32 to a low number and see if that works.
