The Lynx Dual Arm Controller software set is a free FlowStone-based suite that is capable of controlling two AL5 arms using only one SSC-32 servo controller. Your robots can be taught sequences of motion using simple buttons for control. The Controller makes use of many of the useful functions that the SSC-32 has to offer. Create programs that can wait for a sensor input, control relays, turn LEDs on and off, and more.
