Cytron G15 Shield is a shield for controlling Cytron’s G15 Cube Servo and servo motor. It is compatible with CT-UNO, Arduino UNO, Arduino Duemilanove, Arduino Mega, Arduino Leonardo and possibly other pin compatible main boards. This shield has four ports for Cytron’s G15 Cube Servo G15 is serial servo. Hence more than one servo can be daisy-chained in series. User may choose to supply the servo motor from Arduino's VIN or the External Power port of Cytron G15 Shield. It also has stackable side headers which allows other Arduino shields to be stacked on top of it.
We have developed the library and example sketch for G15.
* For Rev1.0, please disconnect G15 from the shield during program loading (Arduin UNO or Mega) as the G15 will receive Arduino program too.
* For Rev2.0, please use software serial pin (D2, D3, D8, D9, D10, D11) when load program into Arduino.
