Hi!
I have a SSC32U 32 servo controller. The question is as follows:
if I connect +12V to VL is that enough to operate the servo’s ??
Thank you so much in advance for your help!
@GHARRYH1957 Welcome to the RobotShop Community. It’s best to power the servos via VS1 (VS2 if needed) and normally VL will be powered. Unlike the (older) SSC-32, VL on the SSC-32U does not normally need a separate power supply, so if you plug in 6V to VS1, VL will be powered automatically.
Specifically “Power Options” and VL Screw Terminal:
Then the next question would be what battery/charger parys from robotshop i should order??
If you can tell us a bit more about the application / project, we can give you some suggestions. For example, if you plan to power normal 6V RC servos, the following wiring, battery and charger work well:
If you plan to use a 7.4V “High voltage” RC servo, a 2S LiPo is best.
