class Servo -- 3-wire hobby servo driver
========================================

Servo objects control standard hobby servo motors with 3-wires (ground, power,
signal).  There are 4 positions on the pyboard where these motors can be plugged
in: pins X1 through X4 are the signal pins, and next to them are 4 sets of power
and ground pins.

Example usage::

    import pyb

    s1 = pyb.Servo(1)   # create a servo object on position X1
    s2 = pyb.Servo(2)   # create a servo object on position X2

    s1.angle(45)        # move servo 1 to 45 degrees
    s2.angle(0)         # move servo 2 to 0 degrees

    # move servo1 and servo2 synchronously, taking 1500ms
    s1.angle(-60, 1500)
    s2.angle(30, 1500)

.. note:: The Servo objects use Timer(5) to produce the PWM output.  You can
   use Timer(5) for Servo control, or your own purposes, but not both at the
   same time.

Constructors
------------

.. class:: pyb.Servo(id)

   Create a servo object.  ``id`` is 1-4, and corresponds to pins X1 through X4.


Methods
-------

.. method:: Servo.angle([angle, time=0])

   If no arguments are given, this function returns the current angle.

   If arguments are given, this function sets the angle of the servo:

     - ``angle`` is the angle to move to in degrees.
     - ``time`` is the number of milliseconds to take to get to the specified
       angle.  If omitted, then the servo moves as quickly as possible to its
       new position.

.. method:: Servo.speed([speed, time=0])

   If no arguments are given, this function returns the current speed.

   If arguments are given, this function sets the speed of the servo:

     - ``speed`` is the speed to change to, between -100 and 100.
     - ``time`` is the number of milliseconds to take to get to the specified
       speed.  If omitted, then the servo accelerates as quickly as possible.

.. method:: Servo.pulse_width([value])

   If no arguments are given, this function returns the current raw pulse-width
   value.

   If an argument is given, this function sets the raw pulse-width value.

.. method:: Servo.calibration([pulse_min, pulse_max, pulse_centre, [pulse_angle_90, pulse_speed_100]])

   If no arguments are given, this function returns the current calibration
   data, as a 5-tuple.

   If arguments are given, this function sets the timing calibration:

     - ``pulse_min`` is the minimum allowed pulse width.
     - ``pulse_max`` is the maximum allowed pulse width.
     - ``pulse_centre`` is the pulse width corresponding to the centre/zero position.
     - ``pulse_angle_90`` is the pulse width corresponding to 90 degrees.
     - ``pulse_speed_100`` is the pulse width corresponding to a speed of 100.
