Just a quick THANK YOU to DaOld Man!

[BorgDog]

Thanks!     I've been reading through a lot of threads on setting up some automated workings, in specific a servo run monitor rotation.  Following your advice and using your wonderful startcom MaLa plugin I have my micro Maestro controller telling my Hitec servo to rotate to the correct orientation at the start of each game.  I believe I now have the hard part working, I just need to build the rest, only have it sitting on the table at the moment  but was so tickled that I got it to work I had to post something!  Thanks also to everyone else who posted their servo projects without those threads I wouldn't even have known to try this and be having this much fun    I've attached my little batch file (name changed to .txt so could upload) just in case anybody cares.

Already started the build thread   http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,143354.0.html

Edit:  I've updated the servo.txt file so it now has the correct parameters (at least for my setup) and has an acceleration parameter to slow the servo down a bit.

You are welcome, my friend.
Im glad you found startcom useful, and Im looking forward to seeing your project complete!

I would not have bothered with automation if it weren't for DaOld Man's Mala plugins.

Hear hear.  My rotator setup is still going strong and I literally haven't opened the hood in years. 

Old Man(s) rule.

If it weren't for DaOld Man,I would have had a nice simple working arcade cabinet but what fun is that
