I can probably take a screen shot tomorrow when I get in if you need an example.

This is true for the Set Output vi for Motor Controls. The OP is using a Servo and is using the Set Angle.vi, which takes in a range of 0-360 degrees I believe (most Servo's have a usable range of 180 degrees or less, see your servo datasheet for this info).
As dbeckwith said, the first problem is the boolean operator on the floating point wires. I don't know how this would work, but I'm sure it's not what you intended. From what you stated you only want to have one button to control this, so you don't need to use the OR at all (If you want to use another button to control this, you can use the OR to select either buttons). On the input of your Select use your button and the values should be 0 and your other value (I assume 180). The output of that should go directly into the Set Angle.vi. Finally calibrate your servo down position by removing the screw holding the servo horn, rotating the output gear to it's maximum down position and reinstall the servo horn and screw.
