Do not run servos using "current settings" . Its like driving blind, or trying to... Just follow the right steps.
Thanks for the reply Boyan. Do you mean the computer to driver programming cable (driver to computer) or the driver to BOB? The former is an RS232 DB9, I have the correct plug for the latter (control IO - cn1) - a manufacturers cable wouldn't be any better since I just need to connect the BOB to the correct four or five pins.

Unfortunately, I don't know the "right steps" and can't get my computer to talk to the driver! At the moment, I'm not worried about "flying blind" I just want to prove that the drivers and servo work.
