    DBoy,

    As you have to learn everything about servos management ... I'd recommend you to make a Web search on R/C and Robotics sites about How a servo works.

    Once that, with once more the SEARCH tool ,of this forum, now, you'll find how to do that with PicBasicPro...

    Hi Alain,
    Boy there a zillion open threads in here about that, I would be happy if I could just make interrupts work.

    There simply is no "Happy Spam" If you do it you will disappear from this forum.

    Smile servo motor

    Thank you for your ideal. Actually servo motor pulse width variance from 1ms to 2 ms. I want servo motor shaft slowly turning. So I want to change PWM.

    Question

    Hi, Dboy

    YOU know what you are doing ( or closer: trying to do ...)

    WE do not know anything at all of you.


    Here I'm wondering if you want to turm the servo arm slowly from a position to b position ... or if you want a continuous slow rotation of this arm ...

    Solutions are not exactly ( way of speaking !!! lol ) the same ...

    PLEASE

    Explain what you want to do AS a FINAL GOAL ...

    Alain

    continuous slow rotation of a servo motor - Is this servo motor capable of continuous (like a clock) slow rotation? Most, if not all, R/C aircraft type servos have mechanical stops that won't allow them to rotate past a certain point. Unless you've modified a servo to do a slow rotation somehow (and I don't see that happening), this slow rotation isn't going to happen.
