Labview NXT Servos

I try to shift from a value of 0 to 180 yet I only get a 45 degree move.
How do I take advantage and achieve the full 180 degrees of movement possible with a servo?

Any help would be appreciated.

I can get to one extreme but not the other extreme on the other side. I have values between 0 and 254. It won’t let me put in negative values which I tried to do.

Also can someone explain the Scale Servo VI to me please? I have a feeling I should be using it but am unsure what it does or how to use it to effect the servo performance.

Thanks for your help.

A bit more info would be helpfull.
Do you mean using LabVIEW with the FTC (NXT) Servo controller?

FTC Servos go from 1 to 255 (not 0 to 255). 1 and 255 are the extremes.

Sending a position of “0” just goes to the last commanded position. (handy for keeping the servo in position whitout knowing were it was last sent :slight_smile:
