Hello All

I am looking at the Parallax Servo Controller (USB) and have a few questions, if someone wouldnt mind answering.

Do you have to use the program·supplied to create sequences and drive the servo motors?
Is it possible to program these sequences yourself?

Thanks
Stuart

    You do not have to use the program to program the serovs.· However, it is much easier to use the program.· There is a TTL serial connector available on the board that will allow you to send commands
    through the BASIC Stamp.· The commands are listed in the serial version of the PSC.

    Ok, so that means I need a basic stamp board as well?

    Could·I not drive it by connecting the serial to a computer and using my own program, drive the servo board?

    The reason i ask is that i have another board which is going to monitor limits or stops, and based on that feedback, i need to tell the servo board what to do...
