bs1 & servos

[N-2-STUFF]

does anyone know the code for a bs1 to run a continuous rotation servo ?
thanks scott

It works the same as with a BS2, the difference is that the BS1 uses 10 uS units (2 on the BS2) -- for example:

· PULSOUT 0, 150······· ' stop
· PULSOUT 0, 100······· ' full speed
· PULSOUT 0, 200······· ' full speed -- other direction

are you sure Jon if its 150, 100 and 200 and not 150, 140 and 160.
Do let me know if I am wrong.

Those are the values for the "standard" values of 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 milliseconds. What's important to understand is that for the BS1, the PULSOUT parameter is:

pulse_width (in microseconds) / 10.
