Servo Controller Power Issues....

[John Gutmann]

The servo is just sitting there, it will go to it's defualt position sometimes. As in after the first command is received all servos go to 127 as a default position. and after that it doesn't move at all. RIght Now when I send the commands it has the yellow LED on, meaning there is a position error, which doesn't make sense because I am using the mode that accepts all positions. It is even saying position error after I just send the first byte in the packet. Which doesn't make much sense, but when I do get it to go past there the servo just sits there, sometimes holding the default position sometimes without doing anything (free to turn by hand).

For both supplies I am using a 4 Cell non rechargable AA packs. This means there is 6 volts from each pack, Both packs have brand new batteries in them, and the control circuitry can have from 16 volts as an input so that is no problem either.

I can't think or figure out any reason it isn't working.
