The "motors" used with the camera Pan/Tilt kit are known as Servo motors. These motors should be connected to PWM channels on the Digital Sidecar using a PWM cable.

In order to enable the PWM channels to drive a servo motor a jumper must be placed across the 2 pins next to the PWM port you are using for the servo.
