Phidgets Servo Advanced
Description
This primitive allows you to interface to the two Phidgets Advanced servo boards (both 1 motor and 8 motor).
Once you have the board connected to your PC you need to start the component by sending a trigger to the first input. The 'On' output will
return True if a connection has been established (False otherwise).
If you have multiple boards connected to your PC then you should provide the unique serial number of the board you want to connect to at
the 'Conn' (connection string) input. If you want to connect to a device on a remote server provide the device serial, IP and port or server
name and also a password if necessary separated by commas. Use -1 as the serial if you want to connect to the first device found.
Example connection strings:
“196491” or “635824,myserver” or “-1,myserver,password” or “142567,192.168.1.1,800,password”
Specify the index of the servo you want to control using the Servo input. This should be a value from 0 to 7 depending on the board you have
connected.
You can set the servo type using the Type input. This is optional and if left unconnected will adopt the default type settings. The available
types are:
1 Default - originally based on the Futaba FP-S148
2 Raw US mode - all position, velocity, acceleration functions are specified in microseconds rather then degrees
