The sketch demonstrates controlling a servo using an analog input from the joystick.
TI LaunchPad
Educational BoosterPack MKII
None. This basic example just uses your LaunchPad and BoosterPack only.
/* Servo Sweep example for Educational BoosterPack MK II http://boosterpackdepot.info/wiki/index.php?title=Educational_BoosterPack_MK_II The sketch demonstrates controlling a servo using an analog input from the joystick based on Knob example by Michal Rinott <http://people.interaction-ivrea.it/m.rinott> The example uses a LaunchPad with 12-bit ADC yielding analog reading in the [0,4096] range. Adjust the scale according when using a 10-bit/8-bit ADC. The circuit: * servo connected to pin 19 * analog channel from Joystick X axis connected to pin 23 Modified 03 Dec 2013 by Dung Dang This example code is in the public domain. */ #include Servo myservo; // create servo object to control a servo int potpin = 2; // analog pin used to connect the potentiometer int val; // variable to read the value from the analog pin void setup() { myservo.attach(19); // attaches the servo on pin 9 to the servo object } void loop() { val = analogRead(potpin); // reads the value of the potentiometer (value between 0 and 1023) val = map(val, 0, 4096, 0, 179); // scale it to use it with the servo (value between 0 and 180) myservo.write(val); // sets the servo position according to the scaled value delay(15); // waits for the servo to get there }
