| Nov 22, 2021 at 10:27 | comment | added | Emlinux | @EdgarBonet I just flipped (milliSNow - lastTimeServoRotate) check from 10000 to 3000 and it run. (milliSNow - lastTimeServoRotate), this checks the time elapsed time. But when start, it wait for 10s to run, even I set it to check with >= 1000 (~1s), I didn't get it. Please suggest. | |
| Nov 22, 2021 at 7:33 | comment | added | Emlinux | @EdgarBonet Thank you. I uploaded it as 'Trial code', Could you please check it? since its working but the fw/rw run time is 3s instead of 10s and holding time is 10s instead of 3s though i defined it to run for 10s and hold/stop for 3s. where I am mistaking? please suggest~ | |

| Nov 19, 2021 at 8:51 | comment | added | Emlinux | @EdgarBonet Thanks for your comment. This code works to run CR in this manner.. 1. when start, it run after 10s 2. servo1 run for 10s FW then immediately run for 10s RW in loop. but I wish to hold/wait for 3s after 10s FW and 10s RW run each. 3. 'lastMillis' is only used for CR servo, its not clashing with POS servo variable. | |

The last code snippet you posted should work, albeit with 10 second (rather than 3–4 s) pauses between FW and RW. If it doesn't work, you have an issue elsewhere in your code. Maybe you are sharing the lastMillis variable with the code handling the positional servos?

| Nov 11, 2021 at 3:48 | comment | added | Emlinux | @ArduinoFan thanks for sharing the link, I tried this but this is for controlling same type of servos, in my case i need to set up positional servo and CR as well, so its getting mixed operation. while running pan/tilt one after another with continuously running CR servo CW/CCW with wait time of 2s. any help would be appreciated. Thanks. | |
