|
SetTarget |
| Set a panel object to be 'connected' to the servo's. The connected object will then move as if connected mechanically to the servo's actuator. | |
 - HANDLE
|
Target |
| Object to be moved by the motor | |
 - VOID

Properties |
|
Moving Part |
| Set an object on the System Panel to be the servo's actuator. The object's position at the moment of selection is taken to be the 'rest' position of the actuator - the maximum and minimum angles will be measured from this position. | |
|
|
Axis Object |
| Set a panel object to be the centre of rotation of the servo's actuator. | |
|
Move Around |
| Set the axis around which the actuator will revolve. If an 'Axis Object' is chosen, this will be a local axis of the chosen object, otherwise it will be the current world axes. | |
|
|
Movement Type |
|
Minimum (degrees) |
| Angle that the servo turns when the PWM signal is at its minimum. Measured from the actuator object's 'rest' position, chosen at the time of connecting the object. | |
|
|
Maximum (degrees) |
| Angle that the servo turns when the PWM signal is at its maximum. Measured from the actuator object's 'rest' position, chosen at the time of connecting the object. | |
