Servos not working on SM-IR-16-2

Beitrag von BryanBoven »

My servos are not working on the SM-IR-16-2 with the SFR-1. The LED's are working properly for American Mode and the servos are receiving power.

Here is what I currently have selected.
-On Light Module tab I have Light Module Servo 1 & 2 selected
- Home position 1.500ms
- Position # 1 2.000ms
- Position # 2 1.000ms
-Automatic return to home position button checked
-Prop Channel 4 in the short position "A" I have "LM: Servo 1 Position 1" and in the short position "D" I have "LM Servo 1 position 2"
-General Tab (Light Module) I have the SM-IR-16-2 or LM-IR-16-4 (Infrared - Slow) tab selected

Am I missing another setting on another tab somewhere?

Thanks!

Hello Bryan,

the settings seem to be ok but please upload the project file (*.sfr) for us to check.

In the meantime please check if the switch associated with prop channel #4 actually works by assigning another function, e.g. switching an output on/off, preferrably an output that is also connected at the light module and known to be working (like the LEDs in American mode).
This way we can exclude any problem in the "chain" switch > transmitter channel > receiver > SFR-1 > light module.

I have assigned another function (lights) to the switch that I would use for the servo and it works as normal.

Hello Bryan,

configuration looks generally ok but try to uncheck the "Servo outputs for digital servos (10ms)" option under Configuration > General > Module configuration. Does this help?

Can you move the servo by hand when connected to the SM-IR-16-2?

Did you test the 2nd servo output?

I've unchecked the "Servo outputs for digital servos (10ms)" option under Configuration > General > Module configuration with no luck. When I try to move the servo it makes an electrical (buzzing) sound when I try to move it but it doesn't move. I have the same results when I use the second servo output and I also tried on my second SM-IR-16-2 with the same results (no movement)
