Richard, that's what forced me to create the SSC-32 control in ARC. It was a pain in the butt coding for the SSC-32 directly. I really wanted to use it in the Auto Position, now we can:D

Guess that's how you get me to do stuff... Give me something that's frustrating and i'll make it happen to make my life easier Hahaha

It's great stuff man... I have seen you code first hand so I know... LOL... The Auto Position now supports 56 servos.... Geez, with that many servos you can have your inMoov performing brain surgery with that much articulation... I do wish that the power connectors on the ssc-32 would fit larger gauge wires... The connector seems like to be a power bottle neck to me...

yes, but think about this. With 5 ez-bs, you could have 280 servos now. That is crazy.

Haha - that's nuts! never thought of that:D

Nice , I'm glad to hear EZB supports the scc32 board now , that really expands the amount of servos! Fantastic

On a second note , what guage cable is the ext cable in the ez robot store? Also is it copper or tin? Just wondering , Thanks

@Josh... I am not sure what kind of wire, but they are at least the same gauge as the lynxmotion ext cables.... However, they may even be a lower gauge (thicker) because they do feel more substantial than the lynxmotion cables...

p.s.... Josh, I still plan on getting some of those regs off of you.... I'll eventually get around to it LOL....

@RichardR -

I just got an ssc-32 and I have a question. I'm trying to use a horizontal slider to move a servo on the ssc. I can see the communication led blinking on the ssc and I do have a power light on the "a" side of the ssc. I have port V0 selected in the slider. I do not get servo movement on the ssc.

My question is am I configuring correctly? On the ssc control I have "is ezb uart #0" checked. On the slider I have port V0 selected. That doesn't seem right to me but I'm not sure how else you would configure. For instance, configured like that, how would I pick the B side of the ssc? Also, any projects you have written for the ssc and a hand would be appreciated.

I did see the example script you posted once and will try that, I was just trying to do it with a slider to start.

@Checksumff Do you have the baud (confirmed) set at 38400? Also do you have the UART wired to the SSC-32 correctly? What version of the SSC-32 do you have? I haven't tried using a basic servo movement with the SSC-32 yet... I have been controlling mine with serial script commands...

Sample code to send serial commands to move servos on ports 0 - 4 on the SSC-32...


$pw="750" #position min is 600 max is 2400, 90= 1500
$m ="1000" #speed command

UARTWrite(0,0,"#0P"+$pw+"S"+$m,13) #right thumb
UARTWrite(0,0,"#1P"+$pw+"S"+$m,13) #right index
UARTWrite(0,0,"#2P"+$pw+"S"+$m,13) #right middle
UARTWrite(0,0,"#3P"+$pw+"S"+$m,13) #right ring
UARTWrite(0,0,"#4P"+$pw+"S"+$m,13) #right baby
