So if the pan gets to a certain position where it is a little more stressed, then the voltage may e drooping enough to confuse everything.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I would try either a stronger power supply, or a battery. If neither of these are an option you can try a large capacitor at teh power inputs of the serializer to see if that helps.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Ringo</description><pubDate>Wed, 09 Jul 2008 07:32:33 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>ringo</dc:creator></item><item><title>Servo Signal Bleeding and its prevention</title><link>http://www.roboticsconnection.com/userForums/Topic580-4-1.aspx</link><description>I was wondering if there is anything I can do to prevent signal bleeding that occurs across servos.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I am only using two servos on a pan/tilt assembly. The pan servo is continuous rotation.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I noticed that all of the servos will twitch when calls are made for a change of position to any one servo. While this doesn't have "as" adverse affects when using standard servos, it does create major issues with a continuous rotation servo as the position call to the servo is much like that of a motor.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;When the tilt servo reaches a certain point, bleeding starts to occur chaning the position of the pan servo causing it to spin uncontrollably. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Is there anything that can be done to the leads to help prevent this bleeding? A resistor, maybe?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Is this something common to the serializer, or maybe an issue with just my board?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Not sure if it helps, but I am using a constant power supply of 12v at 2a.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks for any help that can be offered. :D</description><pubDate>Fri, 04 Jul 2008 22:50:11 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Narica</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
