A few years back I purchased a small servo controller that connects to =
the serial port of a PC.
It came with some basic programs to control the servos. Unfortunately, =
shortly after purchasing it
I wound up in a job that had me traveling extensively and never did =
anything with it.
Now after several years and a couple of moves later, I found this =
controller in a box and would finally like to=20
built a robotic project. Unfortunately, I have since lost the =
documentation for the controller, and am unable to=20
find the company on the web.
Anyone know if they are still around or have changed their name?
The controller is based on a Motorola MC68HC705C8A processor and looks =
like it can control up to 7 servos. I believe that I have v1.20 of the =
controller.
I also have a couple of old Palm VII sitting around that I would like to =
use in conjunction with this servo controller (instead of a pc)....
I would love to also hear about any projects out there using a Palm VII =
for robotic or data acquisition.

Thanks,
Dean
