and maximum endpoints. Speed of the total movement can be 

adjusted. If the movement is set faster than the servo is rated, 

then the servo will not be able to move to each end point before 

changing direction. The speed ranges from 0.1 second to 5.0 

second.

Sweep – Moves the servo through minimum and maximum 

endpoints at an adjustable speed. The speed of the Sweep is 

adjustable between 2.4 seconds/cycle to 120 seconds/cycle.

Step – Moves the servo through the minimum and maximum 

positions at an adjustable Pulse Step. The Step range is 0.25 

microseconds to 100.0 microseconds.
