How do I Control an RC Servo?

Hardware: Motion Control

Problem: How do I control an RC servo?

Solution: RC servos typically have three wires: Red, Black and White. The Red wire is the Power connection, the Black wire is the ground connection, and the White is the control line. On the control line, the servo expects a pulse train with a frequency of 50 Hz. The time that the pulse is high determines the servo position. 1ms to 2ms corresponds to 0 to 270 degrees respectively.
