Servo

## attach()

#### Description

Attach the Servo variable to a pin. Note that in Arduino 0016 and earlier, the Servo library supports only servos on only two pins: 9 and 10.

#### Syntax

servo.attach(pin)
servo.attach(pin, min, max)

#### Parameters

servo: a variable of type Servo

pin: the number of the pin that the servo is attached to

min (optional): the pulse width, in microseconds, corresponding to the minimum (0-degree) angle on the servo (defaults to 544)

max (optional): the pulse width, in microseconds, corresponding to the maximum (180-degree) angle on the servo (defaults to 2400)

#### Example

    #include <Servo.h>

    Servo myservo;

    void setup()
    {
      myservo.attach(9);
    }

    void loop() {}
