Hello group,

I have just installed Codevision and am doing some experimentation.  
Has anyone succesfully operated RC servos with this compiler?  I 
guess I'm just fishing for a code-snippet to get the ball rolling.  

Thank you for your time!

Ted

Sorry,

Need to clarify.  R/C servos- Small, gear reduced servo motors used 
in Radio control hobbies.  Controlled by Pulse Width Modulation.

Sorry, I cann't understand what you want from us?
What is "RC servos"?

I thought of that but I never implemented it.  I do have a question about 
the servos, though.

I was considering using one of them to rotate a small directional loop 
antenna.  From the servo spec sheet I located, it appeared that you have 
to continuously send the pulses to the servo in order to have it hold its 
position.  Is that correct? Or is there a way of making the servo hold 
its angular position if the pulses are stopped?

I've put code on my web site for driving 6 R/C servos using one of my
MAVRIC boards.  The example is for GCC and the ATmega128, but you
should be able to port it easily enough for another C compiler.
