I recently purchased the lynx 6 and am having trouble understanding how to program him. can someone please help??? : 
You probably need to post up info on what you have tried so far that works and does not work.
What I mean is, I don’t even know how to “begin” to program this thing. How do I know what to type if I want servo X to move Y1 distance, with shoulder movement X2, and so on??
Well, it is assumed that you got the below materials with the arm. Are you connecting the arm to a computer to control it? Have you read all materials supplied with the arm, in particular the ssc-32 manual? Have you been able to make the servos move using the RIOS software or lynxterm? Did you assemble the arm, or did someone else do it? You need to give detail on where you are with your project to judge what type of info would appropriate for your situation.
