Before chasing down possible programming errors, let's start with the simple questions. Did you install a servo power jumper next to the servo's PWM output on the Digital Sidecar? Without power, a servo will not work.

You need to place a jumper in the slot next tot he PWM pin to enable the 6VDC to power the Hitec Servos. The Jumpers are included in the Controller Kit of Parts. Check the invetory list for a picture.

Good luck!

We're starting the color tracking today... We don't have a certificate of ownership needed to activate National Instruments Vision Assistance 8.6 for the axis camera. Where can we get a valid serial number to authenticate the installation of the software?

The serial number was either with the software CDs on the Cd case or on a sheet with them I cant remember which.
