I have built a camera slider dolly, I have a servo connected to an ssc32 board, and need to know how do i get visual sequencer to tell the servo to turn continuously in one direction without stopping, i have a continuous rotation servo installed in the device and it has a limiting switch at the end of the track to turn the ssc32 off.
If your servo is continuous rotation, you should be able to set its “degree” to control the rotation speed. For example, if you set the degree to 90 (a.k.a. position 2500), the servo should rotate full speed. If you set it to -90 (a.k.a. position 500), it should rotate full speed the opposite direction. If you want to rotate at a slower speed, you can use a number less than 90.
Once the dolly has reached the limit switch, you can then set the degree to be 0 (a.k.a. position 1500) so that the servo stops turning.
Use microseconds for finer speed control with the continuous rotation servo. You can use the lynxterm program to test your setup. In the lynxterm program you can use the pc keyboard arrows to increment the microsecond values being sent. Just noticed in this version the up key decreases the value and the down key increases the value.
