docs_blackbox 4x_connect rc servo
OpenBuilds BlackBox provides a way of using an RC servo to raise/lower a pen, in Pen Plotter type applications
NB: Advanced functionality, requires you to install a custom version of Grbl-Servo
- Grbl Settings: Send $30=255 to adjust the scale to 0-255 (8 bit for Servos)
- GCODE: Send M3 Sxxx where xxx = 0-255 Absolute Position for the servo to move to
- You may need to add a G4 Pxxx dwell to allow the servo some time to reach the position before continuing with the GCODE
Please flash https://github.com/cprezzi/grbl-servo onto your BlackBox
TIP: Remove the Relay Mode jumper to prevent the relay from clicking on/off rapidly during servo operations
