Thread: Servo wiring color guide

Tweet

This is the kind of jacks I have.

hmmm, dont know 'bout those then.. My first controller is with jacks an sockets, th' other two controllers will be hard-wired(no sockets), too pricey, $30 fer 10 sockets, but they still be soldered.

You be needed to check the Bay of E fer yer deals. I found these little darlins fer $2 each and shipping was very reasonable. Now ya got me doin it.

Aye, bu' tis easier jus' ta put the servo pigtail on th' board end o' th' cable, solder th servos right to the skull end of th cable an just use a cable clamp ta hold'em oll together an keep the strain off the wires.

Ok. Looking over your lines on the RJ45 plug and comparing it to a regular RJ45 jack setup, I found the following:

Left Side:
Jaw: Solid Orange
Red Power: Striped Orange
Red Power: Striped Green
Empty: Striped Blue (should be black ground)

Right Side:
Black Ground: Striped Brown
Servo: Brown
Servo: Green
Servo: Blue

Does it look like I have it right?

Yer dark striped wires, th' striped blu an' striped brown, shud be run together, ta provide enough current 'andlin' capability, an' look like ye got it labeled right. Ye can solders them together, then fits'em inta th' black ground socket..

Again, it jus' th' wirein' code I be usin', if ya 'as yer own code, by oll means, if it stikes yer fancy, or more sense it be makin'. then 'ave at it..
