Hi Rick,
Not really needed
The servo command is the same as the PWM command
Assume you want to set an angle between 0 and 180 degrees (90 is centre position)
then use:
PWM x,50,5+angle/36
See below code as an example:
servo signals range from 1ms (5%) to 2 ms (10%) on 20ms frame rate
'set up the PWM for 2 servo's
setpin gp2,pwm1a
setpin gp3,pwm1b
'start the PWM's in mid position
PWM 1,50,7.5,7.5
'vary the angle
do
for angle=0 to 180 step 10 '90 degrees is mid position
pause 100
pwmval=5 + angle/36
PWM 1,50,pwmval,pwmval
next
loop
'set up the PWM for 2 servo's
setpin gp2,pwm1a
setpin gp3,pwm1b
'start the PWM's in mid position
PWM 1,50,7.5,7.5
'vary the angle
do
for angle=0 to 180 step 10 '90 degrees is mid position
pause 100
pwmval=5 + angle/36
PWM 1,50,pwmval,pwmval
next
loop
sweeps 2 servo's from left to right.
Make sure you have sufficient 5V power for the servo's. The USB is not sufficient !!!
