Servo Control

Servo Control

‎05-20-2013 11:33 AM

Hi,

I just downloaded the LVIFA kit and I started working with the Servo project. I hooked everything up as displayed in the graphics model below. My problem is that I'm not getting any response from the second servo motor. I'm using the controls on the GUI, but nothing seems to respond. The motor just actually gets to be hot enough to where I disconnect it. Any Suggestions?

Hi,

Do you have an external power supply for your servo or are you using the onboard 5V power supply? BTW, is your arduino powered by USB or external?

This could be the issue with servos than drains too much current for the board or for the USB...
