I am working on a robotic arm and have yet to figure out how to avoid the initial jerk that the servos do when the first positioning command is sent to them.
I am programming a Basic Atom Pro 28 Pin in Basic Micro Studio
I have 4 servos running off the ssc32 which is being commanded from the Bot Board II.
I have looked in these forums quite a bit but have yet to find a solution that works. I appologize if i just failed to look hard enough. Thanks in advance for any help.
Not sure if there is a fix… When power is first applied to an analog servo, it will move a bit. This is pretty much normal. Then when the servo positioning pulses are applied it will move as fast as it can to the commanded position. This is also normal. To minimize this make sure the arm is as close to the start up position as possible before applying the power and pulses. If what you are seeing differs from my description please provide more information or a video.
You described it right. I was just hoping that there was some way for the ssc32 to read where the servos are before applying the servo positioning pulses. I am using digital servos if that makes any difference? Thanks.
