Hello,
I have been trying to get my servo,(usb) version up and running. I have been trying to use the code listed to the manual to idetify the version number. But am getting nothing. It simply says ,finding PSC", over and over.

I have included the code below.

Thank you all in advance. _Duane

    Duane,

    ·· It is not working because you have the wrong baud parameter for the given baud rate on the BS2px.· The one you have is for the BS2.· You would need to use 1646 in place of the 396 you have currently.· I hope this helps.· Take care.

    Changing the baud value worked great. I'm getting a return response as I should.
    ·Right now I'm trying to figure out the correct pulse rate to make a servo go forward, reverse and a complete stop. It's not realy working out for me real well.
    ·If you happen to have a good starting point for me I's apriciate it.... thnax again _Duane

    Typical values are 500 for forward, 750 for stop and 1000 for reverse.· You can try these for starters.· Take care.
