Using Arbotix instead of arduino

I'm making a script that will read a ros message with positions for servo motors controlled by an arbotix-m microcontroller. I have tried running the script using

rosrun rosserial_python serial_node.py /dev/ttyUSB0

but ros keeps producing the following error:

[ERROR] [1548019628.781197]: Unable to sync with device; possible link problem or link software version mismatch such as hydro rosserial_python with groovy Arduino

Is there a way to set up ros on an arbotix so it can be used like an arduino?

Which versions of ROS are you running?
