## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=GB-3109-0004-0002:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/GB-3109-0004-0002:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

Rule the rotation of your servo with the Servo Commander! Its input knob provides real-time servo control while four buttons store configurable travel positions. You can even use the buttons to select your preferred PWM range among four preset options during power-up!

## Servo Connection

Two sets of 2.54mm (0.1”) headers allow you to put up to two servos under the Servo Commander’s control.

## Voltage Input

The Commander can be powered by a DC input voltage between 5 and 15V. The XT30 connector is the primary power input port; however, if you are using a battery with a connector similar to that of a servo (TJC8), you may plug it into the + and - pins at the top of the board.

**??VOLTAGE WARNING:**The voltage you power the Servo Commander with will be passed on to the servo. **DO NOT use a voltage that is higher than your servo is rated for.** Sending a voltage higher than that for which your servo is rated will result in damage to the servo.

## Servo Position Programming

Storing and recalling a servo travel position couldn’t be easier! It’s just like saving radio stations on a car’s stereo. When your servo is in the position you want to save, just hold your button of choice until its corresponding LED illumination is solid. The next time that button is pressed, the servo will travel right back to the saved position!

## PWM Range Customization

Each of the Servo Commander’s 4 preset PWM ranges has been specially selected by the goBILDA® R&amp;D team to provide you the best options for a variety of servos!

- 1050µs - 1950µs: The standard for 90° rotation.
- 850µs-2150µs: The typical max signal range for Hitec and Savox digital servos.
- 600µs-2400µs: Allows most analog servos to rotate 180°.
- 500µs-2500µs: Enables goBILDA® servos to achieve full travel!

It’s extremely easy to configure between preset ranges! No computer required. Just follow these steps:

1. Power off Servo Commander.
2. Hold button of desired PWM range.
3. Power on Servo Commander while holding button.
4. Release button when the corresponding LED illumination is solid.

And if you'd like to **reverse the output** of the Servo Commander, here's what you need to do:

1. Hold two buttons while powering on the Servo Commander.

That's it! It's that clean and simple to reverse the output direction. Naturally, you can power off the Servo Commander and repeat the process to return the output direction to its regular setting. A top-to-bottom or bottom-to-top sequence of LED flashes will accompany any successful direction change (signifying whether or not the PWM signal increases or decreases according to clockwise knob rotation, respectively).

## Mounting

The Servo Commander has four hex-counterbored thru-holes on the goBILDA® 32mm square pattern that provide for easy, versatile attachment to your project. The hex counterbores are ultra-convenient for their ability to hold hex nuts, allowing you to fasten the Servo Commander from the top or bottom with M4 hardware exactly the way you want!
