my team and i were trying to finalize our robot for atlanta and were having a problem with our servos. whats happening is we have all the servos set to do what there supposed to do, i press a button that only 1 servo is suppose to respond to and they all go at the same time. i tried switching controllers and nxts that didnt work. i wrote a line of code that only turned 1 servo and the others werent even programmed in and they still went, i dont know why this is happening
does anyone know how to fix this?

If you post your code, we may be able to provide more help.

You mentioned that you wrote a line of code to move only one servo. Was that inside your existing program or did you try creating a new clean program to test with?

I wrote a clean program, ill post my code shortly the internet is down at the moment so I'm having to use my phone

// Main Task
//
// The following is the main code for the tele-op robot operation. Customize as appropriate for
// your specific robot.
//
// Game controller / joystick information is sent periodically (about every 50 milliseconds) from
// the FMS (Field Management System) to the robot. Most tele-op programs will follow the following
// logic:
// 1. Loop forever repeating the following actions:
// 2. Get the latest game controller / joystick settings that have been received from the PC.
// 3. Perform appropriate actions based on the joystick + buttons settings. This is usually a
// simple action:
// * Joystick values are usually directly translated into power levels for a motor or
// position of a servo.
// * Buttons are usually used to start/stop a motor or cause a servo to move to a specific
// position.
// 4. Repeat the loop.
//
// Your program needs to continuously loop because you need to continuously respond to changes in
// the game controller settings.
//
// At the end of the tele-op period, the FMS will autonmatically abort (stop) execution of the program.

thats our drive program, we added more servos now so we really need to know how come its doing what its doing. if i take the servo trig out of the lines on that button it still moves around with that button

and if i write a simple code that says if i press button 3 servo aim goes to this position, THEY ALL DO and i didnt even define them at the top. help please i dont know why this is happening

We just had the same problem. Don't understand what happened, but not being able to use the servo controller as the 4th controller on sensor port 1, we had it on sensor port 4 (like you). We competed at our regional and when we got back home, the servos wouldn't move.

We tested new servos, replaced the servo controller, tried a second NXT, and created a clean program using the telop template with only the servo controller on port 4 and only code to move servo 1. It still didn't work. Next we moved the servo controller to sensor port 1 and it worked. It worked on port 2 as well.

So, we ended up moving the servo controller to sensor port 2 and the light sensor in port 2 to port 4. All is fine now. Still don't understand why it quit working on port 4 though.

Andy

I have to agree with Andy as I do not see any coding issues but I do recall reports from a few teams with issues specific to controllers on sensor port 4.

Try moving your servo controller to sensor port 1-3 and test again.
Please post the results back here and if it does fix your issue, email support@robotc.net to log a formal bug report. That is the easist way for them to log/track bugs, and thus the best way for us to see fixes.
