Printing & Using The Pwm Value ? ?

Good Morning EZ-Scripters ! Attached is my crude attempt to use and display the PWM Value. :Start # PWM(D19,50) # :Loop # $x=GetServo(D19) # #WaitForChange($x) # Print($x) # Goto(Loop) # PWM(D19,50) initializes to 50%, and the Slide Bar changes its value, but my Print Value does not change ?

Camera Question:

Hello, I took apart the camera, and soldered the wires in it as the video explained. I understand the black, and red wire are for power.
