Motor Reset when I use attach function.

[gargakshit]

My servo comes to 0 when I use attach function.

Here is the code I used:

include

VarSpeedServo test;

void setup() { // put your setup code here, to run onc test.attach(2); }

void loop() { // put your main code here, to run repeatedly: }

I'm seeing the same issue - servo resets position when calling attach(), instead of just staying where it is. Except for this issue this library is great - exactly what I was looking for - thanks!

Same here, unfortunately this makes the library unusable for my project :-(.

ISSUE

This problem also occurs with the standard Servo library, also this library is an extension of the Standard Servo library, so the developer might not fix it...

I got a fix. Get the approximate location where the servo is and write that value after it in the setup() function after calling attach() function. It worked for me...

I am closing the ISSUE here, comments are still open. People are requested to keep the thread alive...

Hi @gargakshit, thanks for clarifying, and offering a work-around. I'm the owner of the library. I will admit that I have not had time recently to work on this repo. I'm am looking for someone to help resolve some of the other open issues and pull requests.

@pvanallen Sir, should I re-open the issue???

[jackdewhurst]

@gargakshit this issue does not occur for me using the standard Servo library.

When I use write() directly after attach() it still moves to 0 before moving to the desired value, even when wait = false. This doesn't happen using the Servo library.

I've remedied it by exposing DEFAULT_PULSE_WIDTH from the library, reading the servo position then setting it before calling attach().

@jackdewhurst Hey, thanks for the update. This solved the issue.

Thanks Again

@jackdewhurst, @gargakshit I've reopened this issue - Jack, could you submit a pull request and I'll integrate it? Or just post the changes. Thanks!

[gargakshit]

What's the status???

[pvanallen]

@gargakshit Could you post the code you used to resolve this?

Hi, I am having the same issue. when attach a servo, the servo moves to 0. I need to avoid this, thanks

I create the PR to fix this issue. I have not tested the PR yet, because I don't have servo motor. It would be helpful, if you could test it.
