I to get this working with my atom, need help!!!!!!!!!!

Hi.
We need more information to help you. Tell us:

1. which Atom you have.
2. where we can find data sheets on the Pololu device.
3. what you are trying to do with this set up.
4. what you have tried yourself so far to try to make it work.

Answering these questions is the minimum for any meaningful help here.
Does Pololu have a forum? If so, have you posted this question with them?

Good luck with your project.

I have the ATOM-24M. Specs here: http://www.robotshop.ca/PDF/ssc03a-micro-serial-servo-controller-guide.pdf

I am trying to control 6 GWS continous rotation servos from the controller which logic input is connected to ATOM pin 15 via a lynxmotion mini bot board. I am using the pololu protocol(see manual)
I have tried this line of code:
serout 15, N9600, [0x80, 0x01, 0x01, 0x01, %01001110]

thanks for responding fast, im 13 and kind of impatient because it already took a month just to get the parts from the mail :(

I tried the mini ssc 2 mode (look in documentation) with the following line of code:
serout 15, N9600, [255, 1, 254]
but i'm getting the exact same error :(
my robot is awesome and this is the only problem i've ever had with the BasicATOM so far. So I would like to get this working

I've kept trying but nothing works. Please somebody help me!

Sorry you had to wait this long, I don't visit as much here as I used to. Let's give it a whirl...

-Please describe the error you mention.
-Is it constant or does it come and go?
-What do you expect it to do after you send the string out?
-Have you tried posting questions any where else?

Later!

I am getting a fatal error (red LED is flashing). It's constant it has never worked before. After I send the string it should start moving the servo.
