PSC / HB25 code example ?

Hello everyone,

I am building a robotic arm. The arm uses a 12V actuator,(1)windshield wiper motor, (2)12V·pittman type motors and

(4) servos. The arm uses a total of 4 HB25's to control the the motors. The arm is part of a larger project which will be

a life sized robot. I want each part of the robot to be controlled by a Basic Stamp. At some point, all Basic Stamps will

communicate with each other and be controlled by a BS2p40.

I have used Scott Edward's mini-SSCII , to control the (4) HB25's but feel that the added burden of (4) servos will cause

problems. To make things simple, I have decided to use the Parallax Servo Controller (PSC). I've used the PSC to control

servos but never a HB25. Does anyone know what the code would look like? Controlling the HB25 with the SSCII is pretty

easy. I was wondering if the PSC code was simular.

    You treat the HB25 like a CR servo.
