    Hi every one.

    I have a problem with my board controller, is a POLOLU MICRO MAESTRO (6 CHANNELS).

    In the X-SIM converter I don't have any problem, but with the new software I can't do that works.

    I will put an image of my configuration (in the x-sim converter) and another from the new

    configuration of SIM-TOOLS.

    In this moment I have connected 4 servos, but I don't know what configuration is the correct in the SIM-

    TOOLS software.

    I hope somebody can help me. Thanks a lot and sorry for my bad english.

    Ok use port settings.
    Output Bit Range should be 8.
    Startup - Output should be <255><3><0><255><2><0>..... replace ~ with <>.
    Interface - Output should be <255><3><Axis4><255><4><Axis3>....replace ~a01~ with <Axis1>.....
    For testing you need to make sure you set the default axis assignments to the same as the ones uses in the Interface Output.
    Hope that helps.
