  There's a program for the Basic Stamp called PINGdar (like radar) that uses the DEBUG window of the Stamp Editor for displaying what's seen by a PING on a servo mount for a BoeBot. I believe there's a link to it on the PING product page. I don't know if it was translated to Spin for the Propeller. It shouldn't be hard to do.

  I have this using the ramping,

  PRI pingScan 
    servo.set(pServo, 1500)
    repeat
      SERVO.SetRamp(pServo, 2000, 1000)          'Pan Servo
      repeat 1500000                            'Do nothing here just to wait for background ramping to complete
      SERVO.SetRamp(pServo, 1000, 1000)          'Pan Servo
      repeat 1500000
  

  
  but I am forgetful and havent coded in awhile how would you do this manually? This is what I have so far
  

  PRI scan | servoPos
    servo.set(pServo, 1500)
    repeat servoPos from 1500 to 2000 step 200
      servo.set(pServo, servoPos)
  

  
  Trying to get it to scan the full 180 degrees
