Sabertooth 2x5 and Arduino?

Friends:

Do you have some code and hook up of driving a Sabertooth 2x5 motor controller from an Arduino microcontroller?

Thanks in advance,

Arduino doesn’t have something built into their library for generating r/c servo pwm outputs?

There is a servo library that can be used to control a Sabertooth 2x5 in PWM mode. You can also attach the Sabertooth PWM to one of the Arduino’s PWM pins and use analogWrite(pin) to send PWM to it direct. You’ll use one PWM pin for each motor in this mode, regardless of whether you use the servo library or analogWrite() direct.

Thanks amigos. It turns out to be easier than I thought.

Here is a lot of information I found:

file:///Applications/arduino-0017/Arduino.app/Contents/Resources/Java/reference/Libraries.html

and:
