Introduction: Arduino: Servo Fast Sweep
Part List:
1) Arduino
2) Servo motor
3) Jumper wires
Step 1: Connect the Arduino to the Servo Motor:
1) Connect the arduino's GNDPIN to the servo's negative pin.
3) Connect the arduino's 5vPIN to the servo's positive pin.
3) Connect the arduino's 9PIN to the servo's signal pin.
Step 2: BreadBoard Layout
Step 3: Arduino Code:
// Sweep
#include <Servo.h>
Servo myservo; // create servo object to control a servo
// a maximum of eight servo objects can be created
int pos = 0; // variable to store the servo position
void setup()
{
myservo.attach(9); // attaches the servo on pin 9 to the servo object
}
void loop()
{
for(pos = 0; pos < 180; pos += 10) // goes from 0 degrees to 180 degrees
{ // in steps of 1 degree
myservo.write(pos); // tell servo to go to position in variable 'pos'
delay(15); // waits 15ms for the servo to reach the position
}
for(pos = 180; pos>=1; pos-=10) // goes from 180 degrees to 0 degrees
{
myservo.write(pos); // tell servo to go to position in variable 'pos'
delay(15); // waits 15ms for the servo to reach the position
}
}
