This video shows the use of the signal length to control the servo position. If you watch the Oscilloscope, as the signal gets shorter it causes the servo (the tiny little motor jumping around in the video) to move to the right. As it gets longer, the servo moves to the left. On the very left side of the video is the micro chip that I programmed that is driving the servo. In reality, I wrote the program to be able to drive up to 15 or so servos. I'm just only use 1 for this test.
I also discovered that I probably burnt out my other 2 servos while trying to find the problem. They were cheap but it kept me from realizing I had probably hit the correct values on the program.
