Arduino servo control for signals.

[animotion]

Just wondering if anyone out there has written an Arduino sketch for bouncing signals and would be willing to share it. If not I will have to create one which I will post here.

You could try the Arduino section in Computer Control

There is also a load of stuff on the internet if you do some searching, such as Rudy Boer's website:

Rudy is also a member of RMweb

Thanks Simond didn't realise there was an Arduino section in RMWEB.

How many signals would you want to have on servos? 

I've been working on a servo controller system using an Arduino Uno and some other components but it's geared more towards controlling many rather than a few.

I do have such a sketch but it was for an older layout I no longer work with. Given my experiences with that layout I would not use an Arduino Nano or Uno alone, they are far too susceptible to interference and several signal were damaged by start up 'twitches' - sharp move to 180 degrees and back. I'd take a good look at the MERG offerings, especially EzBus which greatly simplifies things.

Have a look at Little Wicket Railway on YouTube he has some excellent videos
