Usage
- Connect the servo’s signal (orange), power (red), and ground (brown) wires to your control system.
- Use a PWM signal (typically 1–2 ms pulse width) to control the servo position.
- Supply stable power within the specified 4.8V–6.8V range.
- Securely mount the servo to avoid vibration or mechanical strain.
Caution
- Do not exceed rated voltage or torque limits.
- Avoid mechanical overloading to prevent gear wear or damage.
- Ensure adequate power supply current; servos can draw high peak currents.
- Keep the servo dry and free from dust or debris.
