servo's will only go to one position
« on: October 07, 2010, 09:19:02 AM »
some background info, I fried the USB converter on the axon2. No matter which way I change my code I can't get any servo, or 360 mod servo, to goto more than one position, or direction. I have tried inverting the servo using the webbotlib Project Design program, tried changing actsetspeed from MAX to Min and still the servo goes to the same position every time. The code worked before I fried the servo.  I have also tried using different pin outs.

Thanks for your help.

So are you using an external programmer to flash the code?

Can you change the code to do something else (like a simple blink LED program) and upload it to make sure you are able to upload correctly?

I am using the Pololu USB AVR programmer, http://www.pololu.com/catalog/product/1300
I have successfully uploaded different programs to the axon2. 
Another note, the LED outputs zero after every upload.
