Control Ubtech Alpha Servos With The Ez-B V4?

Hello, I have a question .

I have these servos in my robot and have now bought the EZ-B V4.

But if it does not get to work, can the Ez b control these servos?

The servos are all connected and the controller only has 1 cable

greetings

Nick, can you try the plugin with only one V port selected. Meaning, only attempt to move one servo. And, use this script...


:loop

ServoRandom(v2, 10, 100)

Sleep(2000)

goto(loop)

And tell me if the servo moves using the plugin and this script - thanks!

Hi DJ,

Sorry no, been away from home on business since last Thursday, back Friday will be able to test then.

I’d be more than happy to send you a Jimu robot kit with servo’s from amazon if it would make things easier ? Just email me a shipping address

Either way I’ll do the tests you’ve asked for by Friday

Let’s try the plugin first. I had a few mistakes that I didn’t notice when I first published it. Thanks for the offer though.

Hi DJ,

The plugin works great, had problems initially with it crashing on startup but this seems to be resolved after a windows reload

tested so far with 3 different types of ubtech servos chained together, working really well.

I know I'm pushing my luck but a feature request would be to add an option to read a set of linked servos and get it to automatically generate a frame in the auto-position plugin, my reason for requesting this is to make it easier for younger kids to be able to use it to make robot skits.

Thanks again, now I just to give the Alpha 2 an EZB brain transplant
