Can I use the PSC usb and·the PSCI program to controll a serial PSC. In the PCSI program you can controll another PSC but I do not know if it has to be a USB PSC also.

    Hello,

    ·· You should be able to connect the first unit to the USB Port with the jumper removed and the second unit via the Serial Port with the jumper in place (which addresses 16-31).

    Do you mean that I can control both PSC's (USB and SERIAL) with the PCSI software and one USB connection. The connection between the two PSC's will be the standard servo extender cable that parallax sells.

    That should work.· I don't recall if we have connected one in that manner, but typically the serial signals are pass-through, so it should work.· The USB unit can function as a serial unit as well.
