MG995 180° servo with servo.h library angle control

Customer:

Can MG995 180° servo motors be used with the servo.h library? Specifically, can they be set to specific angles between 0-180°? I’m asking because I have MG995 360° servo motors that rotate CW or CCW, but they cannot hold a specific angle.

Poštovani, zanima li me mogu li se servo motori MG995 180° koristiti sa bibliotekom servo.h. Preciznije je li se mogu postaviti u određeni kut 0-180°. Ovo me zanima jer imam servo motore MG995 360° koji se vrte CW ili CCW, ali nisu u mogućnosti držati određeni kut.

MG995 180° servo motors can be used with the servo.h library and can be set to specific angles. The MG995 360° servo motors can have their speed controlled, but not their angle, because they rotate continuously.

hvala Vam na upitu. Servo motori MG995 180 se mogu koristiti s bibiliotekom servo.h te se mogu postaviti u određeni kut. Kod servo motora MG995 360 je moguće postaviti brzinu no ne i kut jer se kontinuirano vrte.
