Add Command to Send Servo Calibration Values #26

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Continuous rotation servos often don't have an exact center until calibrated. 
some servos have a pot on them to adjust but others will need it to be done 
in software.

c = calibrate the servo's center PWM value
Servos that have been modified for continuous rotation don't always center 
themselves
on PWM 90, which should mean no movement at all. This can result in the robot 
not
driving straight and turning poorly at slow speeds. You can now calibrate what 
the
center value is, which on my robot is the command "w 85 86", which centers the 
left
servo on 85 and the right on 86.

This is in place and thanks to Glen we store it in the Arduino EPROM>
