Has anybody successfully controlled a servo with a electronic data track? I managed to connect to the Arduino, auto-program it but had so far no luck in controlling the servo (connected to pin 9) with the electronic data track. Wondered if somebody has been able to control a servo and can help. Thanks

Hello Lauschmann,

Millumin autoprogram function is a basic sketch that just reads some inputs and send them to Millumin.

Controlling a servo is not covered by the "auto program" function.

You can use this sketch to use with a timeline :

#include <Servo.h>

Servo myservo;

boolean isOpen = false;

void setup()

{

  Serial.begin(57600);

  myservo.attach(9);

}

void loop()

{

  if (Serial.available() > 0) 

  {

    myservo.write(Serial.read());

  }

}

In that case, the "pin" selector of the timeline is effect less.

Thanks, works perfectly.

And a final question: Is it possible to run several Servos and control them with individual data tracks? Thanks Torsten

hello @Lauschmann,

Complete documentation and tutorials will come for that functionality with a future release.

Thanks for your patience.
