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

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That index may be outdated.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

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.
