Method Detail

setPulse

public void setPulse(int pulse)

This method set the pulse in a RC Servo. Note:Pulse range is: 500-2500, but internally it is necessary to divide into 2

Parameters:

pulse - the pulse width

getPulse

public int getPulse()

Return the pulse used in last operation

Returns:

the pulse

setAngle

public void setAngle(int angle)

Method to set an Angle in a RC Servo.

Parameters:

angle - the angle

getAngle

public int getAngle()

Return the angle used in last operation

Returns:

the angle

setSpeed

public void setSpeed(int speed)

Method to set the Speed in a RC Servo.

Parameters:

speed - the speed
