Detailed Description

Class to control a servo on any pin, without using pwm.

Example: 

 // Keep sweeping servo from left to right
 #include "mbed.h"
 #include "Servo.h"
 
 Servo Servo1(p20);

 Servo1.Enable(1500,20000);

 while(1) {
     for (int pos = 1000; pos < 2000; pos += 25) {
         Servo1.SetPosition(pos);  
         wait_ms(20);
     }
     for (int pos = 2000; pos > 1000; pos -= 25) {
         Servo1.SetPosition(pos); 
         wait_ms(20); 
     }
 }

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Servo ( PinName  Pin )

Create a new Servo object on any mbed pin.

Parameters:
PinPin on mbed to connect servo to

Definition at line 4 of file Servo.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

void Disable (  )

Disable the servo.

After disabling the servo won't get any signal anymore

Definition at line 24 of file Servo.cpp.

void Enable ( int  StartPos,
int  Period 
)

Enable the servo.

Without enabling the servo won't be running. Startposition and period both in us.

Parameters:
StartPosThe position of the servo to start (us)
PeriodThe time between every pulse. 20000 us = 50 Hz(standard) (us)

Definition at line 19 of file Servo.cpp.

void SetPosition ( int  NewPos )

Change the position of the servo.

Position in us

Parameters:
NewPosThe new value of the servos position (us)
