Servo#

To make Servo commands appear in VEXcode V5, a Servo Motor must be configured in the Devices window.

Initializing the Servo Class #

A Servo Output is created by using the following constructor:

Servo(port)

This constructor uses one parameter:

Parameter	Description
`port`	The 3-Wire Port to use for the Servo Output, whether it’s a port on the `Brain`, or a `3-Wire Expander`.

A Brain or 3-Wire Expander must be created first before they can be used to create an object with the Servo Class constructor.

# Create the Brain.
brain = Brain()
# Construct a Servo Output "servo" with the Servo class.
servo = Servo(brain.three_wire_port.a)

This Servo object will be used in all subsequent examples throughout this API documentation when referring to Servo class methods.

The set_position(value, units) method sets the position of the Servo.

Parameters	Description
`value`	The new value for the Servo.
`units`	Optional. A valid `RotationUnits` type. The default is `PERCENT`.

Returns: None.

# Set the Servo Output to 10 degrees.
servo.set_position(10, DEGREES)
