Ok. nobody answered, so i do it myself.
so the problem was , that it is nowhere described how to controll continues
servo (the 360-servo in which PWM controlls not angle, but speed and direction)
with PDUINO.
as no one answered this post i suppose - nobody knows it, or doesn't care ))
Hans-Christoph Steiner (author of PDuino) wrote to me, that he is not working
with arduino for a long time.
Here's what i had to find experimentally.
1) need to switch pin to servo-mode in pduino interface
2) after that you can use pduino's servo-slider to experimentally find the
proportions in which your servo is controlled, but doing it slowly and
gradually.
3) then most probably you will need to send to the [arduino] abstraction the
analogue messages like [ analog 7 0.88 ( - in my case i use 7th pin to control
the FS5103r speed and direction.. some of the values will mean STOP.. and
higher and lower this value will mean forward and backward..
4) and all the changes should be gradual, but not jumping values, because the
jumpings are too fast for the comport - that was the reason of it's overloading.
5) this means, that if you will need to change speed - you will need to use
[line] object and find the appropriate speed of the ramp experimentally.
6) in case of pduino it also means that you can't do a thing like: going one
way with high speed <-> going back with high speed.. because you can't switch
speed immidiatly and always need to go through a STOP-value .. don't know if
it is common for the comport and all continues servos..
thanks
