Detailed Description

Encapsulates the concept of a servo motor.

Member Typedef Documentation

typedef unsigned int Servo::ticks_t

Servo::Servo ( port_t port )

Create a new servo object.

Parameters

port	The associated physical servo port

void Servo::disable ( )

void Servo::enable ( )

bool Servo::isEnabled ( ) const

ticks_t Servo::position ( ) const

Note

Thie method will return the last sent position, not the currently set position.

For example, imagine the following:

position() will return 700 rather than 300, because 300 hasn't been sent to the servo yet.

void Servo::setEnabled ( const bool & enabled )

void Servo::setPosition ( ticks_t position )

Parameters

position The new servo position, between 0 and 1024

Note: Even though the servos have a theoretical range between 0 and 1023, the actual range is often less. Setting the servo to a position that it cannot physically reach will cause the servo to audibly strain and will consume battery very quickly.
