Easy DIY Home Automation (using servo switches)

Step 2 Assembly & Wiring

With all the pieces ready to go what comes next is throwing them together.

Download the ".pdf" assembly guide below and follow the steps. (04-(SESW)-Assembly Guide.pdf)

A Few Notes:

• A small 3mm hole must be drilled in the servo horn before step 3
• In Step 4 when attaching the servo horn first rotate the servo as far clockwise (looking at the top) as it will let you go. Then attach the servo horn in it's full upright position.

Wiring:

• Wiring is super simple. The servo plug has three pins which should be connected as follows

Pin 1  -  black or brown  -  gnd      Pin 2  -  red             -  power   Pin 3  -  white or orange -  signal  

Pin 1 - attach to the negative side of your power supply (-)
Pin 2 - attach to positive power (4.8v - 6v)
Pin 3 - attach to pin 9 or 10 of your Arduino (or provide with a pulse between 1000 and 2000 mS for more details on controlling servos try (here)
