[Gumstix-users] Problems running Simple servo

[Marq R. <mar...@ya...>]

I have installed the pre-compiled hex file for the simple servo program onto
my robostix. I have also build and installed a 10K pot into the a2d port on
the robostix. When I run simple servo and also start the serial-log program
I can watch the pwm value change as I vary the pot. 

When I power the servo up and the robositx is not giving it any commands, it
moves counter-clockwise untill it reaches it's stop point and will try to
maintain this position if I try to move it around. When I run the simple
servo program the servo will just twitch at the servos stop point at some
rate that dose not seem to correspond to the heart rate led that flashes.I
have also measured the voltage coming from the pwm signal to the servo and
it ranges from ~0.25V to  ~0V.

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

Thanks for your help guys
Marq
