Is there any reason why you can't connect the servos that come with the Boe-Bot to ports 14 and 15 instead of 12 and 13? Note that I'm talking about the four sets of three prongs above the bread board.
All of the pins are interchangeable. Obviously, you have to change your software to match the new pins. All of your pulsout 14 and 15 commands will become pulsout 12 and 13 commands·for this specific example.

Okay.........let me explain everything. I'm working on an engineering project in college and we are trying to use the Boe-Bot for our prototype and possibly for the final product. We are designing a automated leveling system for trailers, such as an RV. For the prototype, we're using the parallax servos to power the prototype jacks. I wrote a simple program that "expands" the jacks and another program that "contracts the jacks. When I tried to expand this program to simply do all four at once, the four servos start to turn in the correct direction and then seconds later all stop and then only the servos connected to port 14 and 15 spin but spin in the wrong direction. This is a pretty simple program, see below, so I don't know what to think other than there's something different about the other two accessory ports (port 14 and 15). Help would be appreciated.
