5.2 Connecting SC08A to Computer
One of the main concerns in controlling servo is the hard work needed to get start. However,
with SC08A, getting start is easy as 1 2 3. Since USB was removed from the board, SC08A
offer a UC00A as alternative method to communicate SC08A with PC or laptop. With
UC00A, no RS232 (serial port, DB9) is needed. This will save tremendous work and time.
Simply plug UC00A to SC08A and (PC or Laptop), driver will installed automatically (1
st
time user only) and there is an extra virtual COM port. Only power source for servo motor is
needed if SC08A is connected to PC. Anyway, the power of UC00A is isolated from the 5V
pin (external supply).
1. Simply connect UC00A to SC08A and PC/laptop as shown in following figure. The
driver will installed automatically (1
st
time user only) and there is an extra virtual
COM port.
2. Connect servo power source at JP2(blue terminal block). SC08A get it power from
UC00A.
