add SG90 servo

[asuz]

Hi to all, how can I add a SG90 http://www.ee.ic.ac.uk/pcheung/teaching ... asheet.pdf servo to the espeasy? Is there a special release for the servos? May I connect it directly? Which device should I choose for control it? Can anybody help me, I cannot find any tutorial about it and no answer at search.

You can control the servo using the servo commands: https://espeasy.readthedocs.io/en/lates ... motor-page

I've got it thanks

Also THX for the link.

But i don´t understand the syntax: "Servo,1,12,-45"

What ist "1" and "12" for?

That is explained in that documentation, the servo-id can be 1 or 2, and 12 is the GPIO pin the servo is connected to. This implies there can be max. 2 servos active at the same time.

That index may be outdated.
For ESP32 that number is for sure no longer limited to 2, but not 100% sure about ESP8266.
I guess it only needs the GPIO now and the servo index is left for compatibility reasons.

Hello. I tried to use the instructions here, but got the answer "failed". What has changed when working with a servo?

What ESPEasy build are you using?
What plugins have you activated?
What commands or rules are you using?

[TD-er]

I think the "what build" is the most important question, as the servo code is not included in all builds

ESP_Easy_mega_20211224_display_ESP8266_4M1M Dec 24 2021
I give the command servo,1,12,-45 from the rules, from the command line

[sartam]

I got an interesting effect when I applied PWM,14,100 to the servo's input. the servo started to rotate continuously

[TD-er]

A servo pulse is a bit different from normal PWM as in the duty cycle is extremely small and the frequency is also relatively low.
So you really need a build with "servo" included.

Which version should I select if I want to work with servo sg90. I can no longer see the wood for the trees in the files

[TD-er]

Yep it has indeed been a bit 'muddy' with all those extra defines to make it all fit.

It should at least be present in 'normal' builds and looking at the code, it should be present in the 'display' build for ESP8266.

There is no plugin for Servo, just the commands.
See: https://espeasy.readthedocs.io/en/lates ... motor.html

Maybe better to use the latest builds, as I know Ton did enable it recently for more builds.

The SERVO feature is enabled in nearly all builds since about 1 month.
Exceptions are the MINIMAL and 1MB Flash-size builds for ESP8266.
