If you open up the SetAngle vi you can see how it works. It takes the angle and normalizes it to 0-359, then converts that to a number from 0 to 1 based on the angular range of the servo. The default range is 170 degrees.

What you should do is choose an appropriate increment. If you use 0.01 instead of 1, your servo will work as you expect with 100 steps of travel. (This assumes that the rest of your code is correct. Things are scrunched enough that I can't really read it well.)
