class jacdac.servo.ServoClient(bus: jacdac.bus.Bus, role: str, *, missing_actual_angle_value: Optional[float] = None)

Bases: jacdac.bus.SensorClient

Servo is a small motor with arm that can be pointing at a specific direction.

  • Typically a servo angle is between 0° and 180° where 90° is the middle resting position.

  • The min_pulse/max_pulse may be read-only if the servo is permanently affixed to its Jacdac controller.

Implements a client for the Servo service.

property angle → Optional[float]

Specifies the angle of the arm (request)., _: °

property enabled → Optional[bool]
